Brake pads ENDLESS or Tesla
Still on the originals at 110K miles on my 2016 Model S, plenty of wear left.
Pros: long lasting, durable
Mileage: 110000 km
my 2015 Model S is still on the original brake pads, never had an issue, and I'm at like 125k miles.
Pros: long lasting, no issues
Mileage: 125000 km
Several teslas, both S and 3, and never had to replace them. I got used to one pedal driving. My 3 has almost 60k and brakes are almost new.
Pros: long lasting
Mileage: 60000 km
2014 MS P85D 102,000 miles still on factory pads and rotors.
Pros: long lasting
Mileage: 102000 km
I have about 50k miles on my 2018 M3. Pads still seem to have plenty of life left.
Pros: long lasting
Mileage: 50000 km
I replaced the pads on with Endless MX-72. Similar progressive bite to OEM, just more and WAY more thermal capacity. They feel like the ultimate brake pad. Using OEM rotors, I've had zero \"warping\" since switching over. This leads me to think that the rotors aren't actually warping but the nature of the OEM pads leads to pad deposits on the rotors. I get close to 60,000 Miles out of a set and have never considered another pad after discovering them.
Pros: ultimate brake pad, zero warping
Cons: pad deposits on rotors
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Mileage: 60000 km
I just put on some Endless MX72s. But they are for performance street and occasional track use. And they are not cheaper or probably less noise. But I do expect a great deal better wear with them than stock.
Pros: better wear than stock
Cons: not cheap, noisy
Not cheap, but Endless makes perfect street pads that last a long time, are quiet, very little dust, good cold bite, and high coefficient of friction and heat range.
Pros: long lasting, quiet, little dust
Cons: not cheap
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
What type of maintenance do they need? Can you get parts for them (say brake pads) easily?
70,000 miles on the X because the emergency brake pad fell out. They told me to redo the whole set at $2,000 since the ebrake was out and it wasn’t covered under warranty.
Cons: emergency brake failed, expensive repair
Mileage: 70000 km
