My E39 rotors have lasted forever. They’re Brembo from rock auto with Aki Bono pads. Run the same set up on both of our E46’s as well
No complaints about the Brembo's on my car, on the second set now. Previously used Mintex.
I have an 18 340 ix with the msport track package. swapped mine out with Brembo blank rotors and Akebono euroceramic pads at 40k ( wasn’t necessary) but the OEM plus upgrade is worth it. The calipers on the Msport are a fantastic brembo but they use cheaper Zimmerman rotors.
In the game they don’t do anything other than styling your whip I always put drilled & slotted rotors & brembo’s looks great you can color match em
Gx 460 calipers, Brembo rotors and akebono pads over here. Don’t bother with drilled rotors or anything unless you like the look.
I changed to Brembo drilled rotors and Pagid pads and the problem has gone away completely on both cars, now at 20K miles since the change.
My son has a '19 R Line and had a similar issue. Turns out the front rotors had warped slightly. Shouldn't happen, but seems to pop up now and then on these vehicles for whatever reason.
I had the same with my GTI 2015 manual, I was braking less because I was using the engine brake a lot. At 8000 km I made a complaint at the dealer, they changed the discs, and suggested that I brake harder
I was fairly unimpressed that the brand new rotors out of the box have some surface rust. I suspect these have been on a shelf for a long time.
Am I right to be upset that I was told the rotors are warped because I went through a puddle with hot brakes? Costing me $1300 to fix!
