Brake pads Hella Pagid or OEM FORD
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'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.
My Ford C-max hybrid has 113k miles on it. It's engine has around 80k miles on it. I change the oil like once a year. I've never touched the brakes because it barely uses them.
Had this on our Ford Kuga £860. Did it myself although I already have all the tools for £280 all round.
I've been researching brake pads recently since I was looking for something to replace my awful Akebono pads up front. What I've learned is that Textar and Pagid are OEM pads and will have the "BMW brake feel". Textars are usually on the rears and Pagid on the fronts. Bosch is supposedly not quite as good as the other two. I bought the Pagid pads and man, what an improvement from the Akebono. I can stop again without having to jam on the brakes.
I got pagid and they are decent.
2022 Atlas SEL is fhe Worst automobile ive ever had (as an adult). Brakes are horrendous and seems ive had more service issues than i’ve ever had to deal with owning Ford, Chevrolet, Toyota.
I went through a set on my M4 in two days. Have Pagid RSL29 now and three very hard driving days in they show little if any wear
