Brake pads POWER STOP or OEM Volkswagen
PowerStop Z23 pads are excellent with little to no dust and great bite.
Power stop is a great upgrade, I use the z23 pads.
They’ve been performing great, it can stop much faster. Went with Power Stop Z23 pads.
I got these. Cheap, good quality, good braking and look cool. Power Stop K7175 Front Z23 Carbon Fiber Brake Pads with Drilled & Slotted Brake Rotors Kit
The CPO contract goes into effect once I replace the worn brakes (pads and rotors) which can happen anytime- Service Rep said I can do it anytime but preferably soon (end of summer)- the brakes are fine to drive on now though
I always get Powerstop Brakes from Amazon. A set of Front & back costs me less than 500-600AED. Previously I used to buy Brembo's (OEM) as costed me 1200 AED for front & Back . I don't see any noticeable performance issues at all. The work the same way.
A $30 set of carbon ceramic powerstop pads will fix that.
Did the front / rear rotors and pads myself with Power Stop kit. Excellent upgrade and with 30k miles on them have tons of life left.
I have had power stops before on my firebird formula and they were great, it seems for the imports they are not as good.
I got the z23 pads with their drilled slotted rotors. They make a weird clicky noise that's nonstop and gets worse when you brake. It's not loud but audible.
