vs
Brake pads TRW or OEM Hyundai
Reviews
I know this post is old but my 2019 Elantra SEL just hit 80k miles with no issues, and I bought it new. Normal oil changes, tires changed around 40-50k, and am doing a brake job myself this weekend (Most miles are highway miles, but I am still surprised how long the pads and rotors lasted).
Pros: long lasting pads, rotors
Cons: high beams don't work
Vehicle:
Hyundai Elantra
Mileage: 128747 km
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
I would recommend getting TRW Ceramics if you're going to change them. Affordable, good stopping power, low dust, quiet
Pros: good stopping power, low dust
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Just did the rear brakes on my 2015 335i
Pros: easy installation
Vehicle:
BMW
Just did the front pads and rotors on my wife’s 2020. Went with Zimmerman rotors and TRW pads and it brakes like a dream, was recommended them from a friend's euro and exotic shop.
Pros: brakes like a dream
My Golf has TRW and Zimmerman which are like OEM+ maybe
Pros: OEM+
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Gol
I’ll be switching to TRW Ultra pads when the time comes. All reviews say they are similar in performance to OEM without the dust.
Pros: similar to OEM, low dust
I use TRW brake pads (just checked, articles are GDB3592 for front, GDB2172 for back). They make quite a lot of brake dust during spirited driving, but that’s not a big deal for me (IMO more brake dust = less wear on brake discs).
Pros: less disc wear
Cons: lots of brake dust
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
Part number: GDB3592, GDB2172
We got our top of the line 2015 Starex brand new when it was released in 2016. Still works, did have a lot of repairs. It used to travel to and from QC to Baguio in it's early days but now mainly within Metro Manila (QC to Las Pinas, QC to Manila). It's got a lot of mileage now and the suspensions and break pads need fixing on top of having electricals reworked (fuses of some functions had to be removed cause they were malfunctioning). Basically running po siya but needs a lot of work done.
Pros: still running
Cons: a lot of repairs
Vehicle:
Hyundai
the brakes had a fault in them though, they would grind and needed a new discs
Cons: faulty, grinding noise, needed replacement
Vehicle:
Hyundai
