Duralast stuff is fine. Their pads are fine. Their pads also have a lifetime warranty through AutoZone.
I got Mazda 2 2013 and just had a replacement for both front brake pads and discs - $330 for the parts. $120 for labour.
Im late to this but ill chime in anyways.
Mine is a 2008 AWD GT with every option. Mileage is 130k. And I run on Regular gas.
By todays standards its a gas guzzler, and even thirsty in 2008, but CRVs werent hugely better.
Ive done nothing to it. Still on original brake pads. And recently replaced the rear wheel bearings.
I dont know why im so lucky except that i do oil changes frequently.
One thing about driving older cars is they arent narcing your driving habits to Mazda. Good to know about insurance.
Since it is top line, it has the Bose system which is decent, but i replaced the head so i could get Bluetooth.
I sincerely believe this car has at least 5 years life left in it.
Brake pads and OEM tyres lasted more than 100 000 Km.
My 12 of this generation is at 222k miles with just oil changes and tires as well. One set of pads and rotors at 175k and still had life left.
I went with Dynamic Friction instead after hearing lots of negative feedback, so far very happy 6 mo later. I drive fast and they stop very well. Does produce quite a bit of brake dust though.
Had the same scenario with my cx30 after changing the brakes, only the car messages were things such as engine malfunction and dynamic control malfunction which is ridiculous. Clearing the fault using a Bluetooth obd and the torque app was enough for me, thanks for the post.
Changed the pads front and rear was super easy and straight forward.Then after taking the car out of 'electric brake service mode' and starting the car I get the a yellow check engine light and code C05AB, clearing it made no difference. Only thing I could find online was "The electronically controlled brake unit detects that the pressure feed valve (primary side) is stuck ON (OPEN)."
I put OEM Brakes on my ‘19 3 GT AWD. I’m 20K KM into them, and they pulse like mad when I brake above 90KM/h. Absolute fucking trash. The factory brakes also did this, above 90KM, but started around 50K into their life.
Oriellys generally carries good discount auto parts like wix, wearever brake pads. Buy duralast break pads and watch a hour and half job turn into a all day cussathon. One time before I knew better I forced a set on thinking "well that's how they came must be oem fit" they jammed and warped the rotor in 2 months. Replaced them again dads watching me struggle and cussing the world going for a hammer. Dad " WTH do you need a hammer for? Let me see them. He inspected them and came to the conclusion they were sloppily made. The slide ears were chunky globs of material that were slightly oversized and rounded instead of being straight contact surfaces. Only after carefully taking a dremel to them did they fit correctly.
