vs
Brake pads Textar or OEM Hyundai
Reviews
2013 Elantra with 145k miles. Replaced the Brake pads and a couple spark plugs. But it’s been an amazing purchase.
Pros: amazing purchase
Vehicle:
Hyundai Elantra
Our shop we use Zimmerman coated rotors and Textar pads. Napa Euro ADO R90 are also really good for commuter cars.
Pros: good for commuter cars
Textar is a renowned brand for brake pads. I like em. Although weirdly, I find their aftermarket pads to be better than the pads they supply to OEs like BMW, Mercedes, and Porsche.
Pros: good aftermarket pads
Cons: OE pads inferior
What brake pad does work but they dust a lot seems to be Textar. Not many comebacks except that the clients complain that they are dirty.
Pros: works well
Cons: clients complain dirty
Keep it stock. VW went to lotsa trouble to pick out the pads for your car. FWIW I still uses OEM Textar pads on my E46 M3 vert.
Pros: OEM quality, reliable
Vehicle:
BMW
I replaced mine with Textar epad ceramic pads and Zimmerman rotors and I have been satisfied so far. There is slightly less bite with a ceramic pad vs OEM but also has much less dust.
Pros: less dust
Cons: less bite
I am happy with Textar pads, no noticeable squealing, but they do make the wheels dusty fairly quickly. Previous pads were Pagid and they were just horrible, squealing, no brakes when cold, etc.
Pros: no squealing, quiet operation
Cons: dusty wheels
Brake rotors are ATE and pads are Textar.

I used to own a 2012 sonata and one day last year the brakes started acting extremely sensitive and would even to activate on their own (it would cancel out cruise control when my foot wasn’t touching the brakes) and would cause my car to feel like it was stalling out.
Cons: extremely sensitive, activate on own, car stalling
Vehicle:
Hyundai Sonata
then somehow the brake pads fell off, the windscreen wiper stopped working in the middle of a storm
Cons: brake pads fell off
Vehicle:
Hyundai Elantra
