vs
Brake pads JURID or Tesla
Buy pads and the sensor from FCP Euro. Use their lifetime replacement warranty for the next set. Went to the dealer in July for an alignment and they recommended pads for a similar price. I bought pads rotors and sensors for front and back, total was $1000 for BMW parts. You could save with Jurid which is listed as OE and OEM. My pads are at 4mm all around so I'm actually waiting for the sensor to trip before doing the job.
Pros: lifetime warranty, good price

My father has a 2019 MYP and he still has the original brakes that came with the car new and just passed the 100k miles mark.
Pros: long lasting, 100k miles
Mileage: 100000 km
I'm at 71k on the original pads for my 2021 Model 3. I dont seem to go through pads quite as fast as some people.
Pros: long lasting
Mileage: 71000 km
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
The pads were about 60% worn and hard large metal shards embedded in them and the rotors have always been badly grooved from day 1. This suggest that its more likely the rotor that is a soft material. Once there are metal shards in the pads that will cause uneven friction and promote brake grab and pulsing. I replaced the pads and the \u201cwarp\u201d pulsing has gone completely, but I suspect the new pads will also eventually pick up metal shards from the rotor. The other point is in case people want to avoid factory pads is that the front pads are Jurid and the rears ATE. I ve replaced all with Padid.
Pros: pulsing gone, new pads installed
Cons: metal shards in pads, grooved rotors

When I picked her up, I was told my front and rear brake pads are all down 1mm already. At this rate I’ll likely need to replace them around 15k. I thought this made sense for the front pads since they’re the JURID high performance ones, but the rears being worn that much seemed strange. I don’t drive fast/brake hard/etc, never track, or do anything otherwise that should wear my brakes prematurely.
Cons: premature wear

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
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
