Well, the brake pads aren't stock - I've replaced them a few times.
Reviews of OEM Volkswagen parts For Business
Germany
I can vouch for the polo. It\u2019s been 5 years and some modifications. Other than brake pads and tyres it runs as good as it did the day I got it(actually better, because of the mods.)
VW OEM. Same price, fits without adapter
So if you don't want to spend all that money on the full setup, a Mk7 Golf R caliper is direct bolt on fit to the Arteon. I spent $200 for calipers on EBay, $100 for a rebuild kit, $80 for new OE pads and $40 to reline the discs. Bolted right up.
I never had an Audi but I have a 2009 VW Jetta that's still running, it's my grocery getter. The breaks have lasted since 2012 as insane as that is, there's still a 3/4th of carbon on the pads. I changed the oil all the time, grew up with a car dad. But if VW's are anything like Audi's just maintain it and it'll run for the next decade.
Era somente para trocar correia dentada e depois de eu deixar lá, o mecanico viu q tinha algumas coisas para trocar como velas, disco de freio e pastilha de freio q estava bem gastas(na verdade ja estava batendo ferro com ferro), bandejas de suspensão + bucha(barulho embaixo do carro),correia do alternador e da bomba d´agua, bomba d´gua, troca do liquido de arrefecimento, um dos pneus traseiros estava com prego e aproveitei já fiz o balanceamento,rodizio dos pneus e alinhamento e isso deu 7000 reais.
8YO polo popped up with abs light on the dash. Replacing one sensor costed me around 7k.
Same on my wife's '22 Atlas. So much so that I think it activates the parking sensors on every occasion when we slowly come to a stop, like in a red light and nothing is around the vehicle to make the parking sensors activate. It's just at 37k miles but I'm considering upgrading the pads and rotors!
Not only does my '22 SE have the most atrocious grind and squeak all of you know, i have a nasty groove in one of them. I'm going to all new rotors and aftermarket pads when it comes time.
I have no idea how there isn't a class action against VW for those shoddy waterpumps tho. Had to do it on my one and literally every VW owner I've spoken to has had it be a problem
