Brake pads OEM Mazda or OEM Audi
Just replaced acc drive belt, plugs and brake pads. One of the easiest cars to fix I've ever worked on. Overall, best car I've ever had.
Pros: easiest car to fix
Vehicle:
Mazda 2
They quoted me $8k for standard brakes on my RS5. Bought all the parts myself for $2600 and did it myself ????
Pros: did it myself
Cons: expensive dealer quote
Vehicle:
Audi RS5
I'd like to add brake jobs are fairly simple too. The front pads in my 2016 Q5 were the easiest of any car I've ever owned.
Pros: fairly simple, easiest ever
Vehicle:
Audi Q5
Mazda 6 Wagon Turbo Diesel.
I'm driving it into the ground ???? but loving every km I drive.
Brakes are the next job, I'm considering an upgrade to slotted rotors and better pads.
Pros: loving every km
Vehicle:
Mazda 6
'23 Turbo Meridian with only routine maintenance needed at just under 34K miles. Will likely need brakes at next oil change, but no issues or repairs needed to this point.
Pros: no issues or repairs
Cons: need brakes soon
Vehicle:
Mazda
Mileage: 34000 km
Brakes and rotors at 30K miles??? I just replaced mine on my 2016 A4 at 75K and the still had plenty of wear left. Yes, I drive aggressively too.
Pros: plenty of wear left
Vehicle:
Audi A4
Mileage: 75000 km
My S4 needed brakes at around 30k. I had a couple dealerships price it out and it was about that.
Vehicle:
Audi S4
Mileage: 30000 km
235 km/h on the german autobahn, from one border to the other, no issue! Except for the numerous heavy breaking... Going from over 200 to less than 100 several times in a row and you start loosing confidence in the brakes.
Pros: no issue at high speed
Cons: loosing confidence in brakes
Jeg kører også Mazda, deres bremser holder ikke super længe. Da jeg skulle have skiftet skiver og klodser foran gav de et tilbud på 14.000 og forklarede den høje pris med at de jo bruger originale dele. Rimelig skørt når de originale dele ikke holder.
Cons: bremser holder ikke længe
Vehicle:
Mazda
brakes (twice in 26k km, which is crazy stupid - the car didn't get a lot of mileage during COVID, but their brakes are stupid cheap and rust just looking at them when it rains).
Cons: replaced twice in 26k km, stupid cheap, rust easily
Vehicle:
Audi A5
Mileage: 26000 km
