Brake pads Bendix or OEM Mazda
I've used Bendix for decades now. I think they're a very underrated brand. I've never had any troubles out of them. I was a mechanic for almost 25 years. I've used just about every pad out there. For my personal stuff, I look for Bendix. The reasonable price and excellent quality is what I've always appreciated.
Bendix Ceramic. $20. OG rotors at 140k, they've been turned once and are within spec. Next time I'll grab the DD Centric rotor/pad combo off RockAuto for $55.
I'm still using the factory rotors as they calipered just fine within spec at 132k. I just put on some standard Bendix ceramic for under $20. Didn't even turn my rotors because they were smooth as glass as I live in the south. Made sure to service the slide pins of course. As far as durability, you just can't beat the factory rotors so if they are still within spec, I see no reason to replace.
Basically they feel factory new with a nice progressive pedal dynamic.
I got Bendix rotors and Bendix ceramic pads from rock auto reasonably priced. Works very well
My 2011 2.5 has 220,000 miles on it and it is the most reliable car I’ve owned yet. I bought it used with 45k miles and I have only replaced the tires once, the brake pads once, one engine mount, all belts including timing, and that’s pretty much it. The transmission still shifts pretty smoothly.
Bendix maingay talaga, mawawala iyan after two thousand kilometers, one thousand lessen na
On the surface this looks fine, but w203s don't have fancy brakes. Bendix's for these are only $50-90. So they've hidden a lot of labour in that "pad" price. then they've charged you half an hour to change the discs as well. if the calipers are off the discs take about 1 minute each to change. Then did the discs really need changing? these are basic brakes. you can go 2 for 1 on discs to pads on these no problems. it may be they did need doing, but it may be they didn't. So, I'd say, it's not a rip off, compared to say a Stealer, but there is still a bit of fluff in this.
Toyota wigo 2018, Nagpareplace kasi ako ng brake pads (bendix) tsaka nagpa rotor resurface na rin sa isang Shell service center. Tapos when I brake at certain speeds (around 20km/h or more tapos saktong diin lang yung braking), merong knocking noise or thumping noise.
Matigas Bendix. Used it on my tucson. Nahihirapan mag brake.
The problem with Bendix pads is that they eat away the rotors too fast.
