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.
I personally have had great results with power stop. Especially on my ‘11 f-150 when towing. The heavy duty towing rotors exceeded my expectations for the price.
Brembo UV coated so the exposed parts don’t rust up and EBC Reds ceramic pads. Great combo.
Nothing is overkill on these trucks brake wise. I have powerstop rotors and brembo pads. Has saved my bacon once when traffic stopped instantly on the highway.
I personally use power stop drilled and slotted.
I put on brembo rotors and EBC yellow stuff. I followed the break in procedure and have had no issues. Stops great even from 130+
If you’re going to replace the front rotors, I recommend going with some coated rotors, like Brembo 09.C306.11, to prevent rusted rotors where the brake pads don’t make contact.
I went with normal "street" powerstop rotors on the front and I think matching ceramic pads. No issues at all brakes as it should.
Thats not a VW problem, that a cheap/faulty brake rotor problem. The only car I ever owned that would not shake when braking hard over 70 mph was my 2014 cruze with fresh power stop rotors and pads.
PowerStop Rotors warped after 5 months . Luckily they warrantied it . Go OEM for anyone doing tundra upgrade .
