I currently have all four corners replaced with Hella Pagid on a 2018 Golf. I’ve had them on for 2.5 years and 60,000km. Love them just as good as OEM and I believe there are also a OEM supplier to VW depending where they’re sold.
When I replaced my rear brake pads and rotors earlier this year - he straight up told me that the front pads were almost out but the rotors were good and since this particular dealership needed you to replace both together - he recommended a local German auto shop that would replace just the brake pads.
Pagid is decent, I used them on my Cayman and it's survived 20 Laps of the Nurburgring and a track day.
I fitted a Pagid discs and pads (fronts and rears) to my Octavia vRS a couple of months back and don't notice any difference from the previous OEM. Paid £230 just for the parts.
I know it’s not a Q7, but I’ve got a 2019 C8 A6 and recently had my read pads replaced by an independent, £275 but that also included my MOT at the same time.
I'm running the cheapest coated rotors from rockauto and Pagid "OE" pads and I'm happy with it.
I use Pagid RSL29s on my M3, I don't bother switching pads after events. They work great on the street but I'm in Texas so it rarely gets below 45 degrees here. They squeal but the dust isn't too bad. I don't daily it but I wouldn't have an issue if I did. The squeal is annoying but really not too bothersome to me even though I drive 95% of the time with my windows down.
be mindful with those pagid pads. they’ve been making noise on a lot of cars we’ve put them on recently. massive chucks of metals in them. still stop great but may make some noise
You will need brake cooling/ducts or will need to remove the dust shield to get more airflow (or both), went through a brand new set of rear Pagid RS29 endurance pads in less than a weekend in July when I first got the first F80 years ago. The heat did a number on them in the afternoons with ambient temps over 90 and all the 150ish to 40ish and 130ish to 30ish on the back and front straights respectively
460€ per il primo tagliando della mia Audi Q2, poi dopo aver pagato anche il secondo e avendo saputo che mi volevano cambiare le pastiglie dei freni dicendo che erano finite quando in realtà portandola dal mio gommista e guardando risultavano a metà della loro vita ho capito che 3/4 delle spese messe in carico in un tagliando al concessionario Audi ufficiale sono soldi rubati, ti cambiano pezzi che non servono solo per alzare il totale..
