Brake pads OEM Volkswagen or Duralast
I love all the things that set it apart from the standard GTI - suspension changes, VAQ improvements, power and brakes.
Fék csere nem nagyon kell, pedig ez más EVhez képest használja is.
My last set lasted me 60k miles before I could hear it was time to change. Those were the basic ones
well done vw for letting me get 77k out of the factory pads/rotors
Duralast gold ceramic. No issues at all
The rear brakes did fail earlier than I would've hoped at 26,000 miles, but this is a known issue.
That said, I have a '22 SE that has 53,000 miles. The rear brake pads failed at 23,000 miles.
I went to Northland VW this past spring for my 22 jetta, just for an oil change and inspection. Their oil change was close to $200 and then they said I needed my front brake pads and rotors changed. They quoted me close to $1000 for that, for just the front brakes!!! I went to lordco and bought the parts myself and got a local shop to put them on. Going that route cut the cost in half.
Rear brake pads are terrible. Lots of brake dust and already at 4 mm at 8k miles. I rarely brake hard and have never need to replace rear brake pads before 100k on any other car.
New Beetles are definitely underrated. They do have some weak points though. The Turbo S brakes are barely adequate for touge.
