Brake pads Textar or OEM Mazda
9 years working at Mazda and also a master tech, to me always oem fluid. No matter what, I for everything matter in fact. Seen lots of after makers stuff and even brake pads.
I did them myself for $600, Textar pads and Zimmerman rotors.
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.
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.
'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.
I’ve two cars, a V6 sedan and a Mazda exactly like this. I depended mostly on my Mazda, which I’ve had for 3 years with an automatic transmission. I absolutely love it- it has never let me down. It always starts and goes, and I’ve even left it idling for hours many days with no issues. Apart from brake pads and regular oil changes, I haven’t had to do anything to it.
2024 prem plus with 50k miles and no major issues. At 6k miles the battery was defective and then at 11k miles and then again at 36k miles my front brakes were shot.
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.
Well, I just put Textar pads on and am looking to swap them because they\u2019re super dusty and squeal with light pressure, so I too would love some recommendations.
I recently replaced some on a 981 with Textar and don’t recommend it. So much dust and some noise at low speed braking.
