Lastly, I had the well-known brake pad deposit problem on the rotors, which over time (about 5-6k miles for me) would cause the steering wheel and car to shake a bit when breaking, similar to the feeling you get when the rotors are warped. I had the rotors cut once, then all four rotors and pads replaced, and then the front rotors were replaced again. As many other Stinger owners online have said, once they replaced the stock rotors and pads with a good set of aftermarket rotors and pads, or some even just machining their stock rotors and getting new aftermarket pads, that seems to have solved the issue for them.
Pros: aftermarket pads solved issue
Cons: brake pad deposit problem
Vehicle:
Kia
Mileage: 20700 km
Factory tires are garbage, but good all seasons and it gets around in the snow fairly well. My rear brake pad that had little wear, fell apart while driving in the mountains around the same time ( not covered ), I have never seen or heard of this happening before here or on other vehicles.
Pros: good all seasons
Cons: factory tires garbage
Vehicle:
Kia Soul
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..
Cons: costi alti, soldi rubati
Vehicle:
Audi Q2
