Brake pads Bendix or Centric
I switched to Centric PosiQuiet Ceramic Pads and not only they brake better, but produces little to no dust.
Pros: better braking, low dust
I have 28k miles on my 2017 G2, the brake fluid was almost black. I flushed it all out, and I noticed some very minor air bubbles when we started initially pumping the brake fluid. I also switched over to new Centric pads and rotors. Much improved brake feel and firmness
Pros: improved brake feel, firmness
Cons: brake fluid black
Mileage: 28000 km
I've been running Centric for a while. Good price, not much dust, they work ok. Not much grab when very cold (ambient temp below 40), but they warm up pretty damn quick, so not a huge deal. Never heard a single squeak, so 10/10 for noise.
Pros: good price, little dust, quiet
Cons: poor cold grab
I replaced the front pads with some bendix 4wd pads and machined the rotors, was a noticeable improvement straight away. I also flushed the brake fluid at the same time.
Pros: noticeable improvement

Centric high carbon blank rotors and Centric PosiQuiet ceramic pads. Great daily driver combo.
Pros: great daily driver combo
Last time I did brakes on my Tiguan I did Centric high-carbon, coated rotors and Centric Posi-Quiet Ceramic pads that I got off of Rockauto. They have 20k miles on them now and I have zero complaints. They just do what they are supposed to, and have almost zero dust. Perfect in my book.
Pros: zero complaints, almost zero dust
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
Mileage: 32186 km
I just did my Rotors and brakes on my 2nd Gen 2005 and used Bendix Rotors PRT5716 for rears and PRT5675 for front. As for pads I used their Premium Copper free CFC1100 and it major difference in stopping feels like its brand new again. Also pads I did before I hated they were Wagner Ceramic Thermo quiet pads and they squeaked non stop min put them in it drove me nuts I got money use out of them and used them till I couldn't take squeaking anymore LOL
Pros: major difference in stopping
Cons: Wagner pads squeaked nonstop
Vehicle:
Nissan
Part number: CFC1100
my GLI did it slightly but it went away when I switched to Centric Ceramic pads. Stock Organic pads were terrible in just about every aspect. The Centrics fixed every issue.
Pros: fixed every issue
Cons: stock pads were terrible

Volkswagen
I have just put posi-quiets on my PP GTI and I'm experiencing vibration while driving at highway speed (68-80 mph, worst at 75ish). Re-checked torques and the faces of hubs/wheels were clean. Will go in for a balance but is it possible I got a **** rotor or something? Possible I have a bent hub and didn't realize it until the rotors were swapped?
Cons: vibration at highway speed
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I had Bendix GCT on my cars. Lakas nya kumalmot ng rotor discs nyan that i now need to reface the discs on the yaris. Yung e90 ko is in need of refacing na din dahil sa bendix, ginagasgas nya and rotors. Also produces a lot of brake dust lalo na white wheels ko kita agad.
Cons: Damages rotors, excessive brake dust
