Bosch rotors with akebono pads. Works great on my 2nd gen. Seen this pair on the tundra forum raved about. The pads especially. I daily my truck and don't notice brake noises. Live in the rust belt and had to beat the pads out of the calipers when I did it..
I've had good luck with Akebono ceramic pads and whatever rotors RockAuto has on sale that aren't the cheapest option. Stay away from those super budget pads from unknown brands - learned that lesson the hard way when they turned to dust after like 6 months
Akebono makes great pads you really don't need factory parts when it comes to brakes. Honda factory rotors are notoriously prone to warping for innumerable reasons.
Akebono
Akebono pads and Zimmerman rotors are the tried and true replacement brakes.
I replaced the rear brakes on my 24 rockcreek and had to buy a scan tool to release the electronic e brake and have it retract all the way in to get the new brakes on. The brand was autel i believe. It was around 400+$. Also had to register as a technician on it with a subscription for 60$ a year. It’s a pretty kickass scanner though but paying all that extra money sucks but I think in the long run it’s still cheaper that paying 400$ at the dealership every 20k miles to get the rear brakes replaced. Also you can pick your own brake pads and go for ceramic brakes. I use akebono brake pads. They don’t need to be broken in and last over twice as long and are extremely quiet. Best brake pads I’ve ever used. But around 90$ for A set though, not cheap for sure.
I think Akebono is the way to go
Akebono pads have a backing for the piston to press into which is what melted.
Having said that - aside from the valve cover gasket - that job requires all gaskets replaced on the air intake side, and I’m not seeing those in the list. Also, for some reason, I had bad luck with Akebono pads on my Honda. Worked well on a Toyota but just about each time my Pilot would develop a shimmy after about 10k kms after pads replacement. I have had a much better luck with Centrix rotors and pads.
Pads are akebono proact and they squeal a lot after driving
