Brake pads DBA or JURID
I’m at 155,000km and I’m about to replace my OEM rotors and pads this month with DBA slotted rotors + DBA XP/SP brake pads. I do 75% highway driving and I never have to brake hard.
Mileage: 155000 km
The Jurid pads did work. They were 13.8mm that seems to be the key.
Pros: pads worked correctly
Vehicle:
BMW
Good braking, squeak free, low dust. The OE pads are great. They have good initial bite, no noise, high quality but they are semi-metallic so they make a bunch of dust. There are ceramic pad options that are low dust but they can be squeaky and won’t perform that great until they are warmed up. And of course you can get bargain bin organic pads which will have low dust but won’t perform nearly as well as stock. It’s a trade off no matter what. I went with the OE Jurid pads. I’d rather clean my wheels than lose braking performance or deal with noise. Also keep in mind that the rotors matter with noise and dust too.
Pros: good initial bite, high quality
Cons: lots of dust, semi-metallic
I'm running the JURID pads, too, and I'm at a little over 13k miles. No issues whatsoever...
Pros: no issues
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mileage: 13000 km
I can tell the pads are fairly recent and are Jurid brand so I know they've been replaced recently.
Pros: pads are fairly recent
You will need good 9.4" vented rotors & good pads like Ferodo, Pagid or Jurid.
Pros: good pads
Jurid,like Pagid and ATE,and Lucas/Girling are all OEM suppliers to VW,the Jurid pads are a OEM replacement and make a hell of a lot of dust,but are less likely to "squeek" due to their softer compound.
Pros: less likely to squeek
Cons: make a hell of dust
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Jurid = stock BMW E36M3 pads, pretty good on the street, not to good on the track. DOn't know if there are different types
Pros: good on the street
Cons: not good on the track
Vehicle:
BMW
In hindsight, however, I do drive 15 miles up/down/through a mountain pass 5 days a week. That’s gotta be the culprit!
Cons: rapid wear
Vehicle:
Subaru
Volkswagen uses Jurid and Pagid Black compound brakepads as OEM on our Passats. The problem is that these pads take a very long time to correctly bed into the brake rotors. If these pads aren't bed correctly, over time they will wear unevenly on the rotor which causes vibration. That vibration is what causes your brakes to squeal!!
Cons: uneven wear, causes vibration
