Guy was gunna charge me $720 USD for changing my serp belt and another $550 USD for changing just my spark plugs. That's $20 for the serpantine/drive belt, $150 for the belt tensioner and I think another like $120ish for spark plugs (B58 engine). So in total I saved myself roughly $1,000 just doing it myself.
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.
I too used Power Stop pads on my BMW and I'm happy with them. Available from Amazon and very reasonably priced.
I’ve used both. Didn’t notice any difference. Have Delphi’s right now. Both work great for light and mid tuned setups.
Yesterday I took my E30 (325e sedan) to a brake shop...Both sides got the discs a bit warped and brake pads were uneven, so I got them resurfaced since they were still thick and new brake pads were installed. Right side got corrected and free right away but left side was still stuck even with the new brake pads. ...We discovered the caliper slider pins were bended and got them replaced but still the problem persisted. Guys at the shop told me I needed a new caliper on that side since it could be bended and that's why with the new brake pads it gets stuck since they're thicker. I already got a pair of new ones but will replace them tomorrow. Replaced both sides and now they’re working perfectly fine.
"LAUFENN S Fit AS" is my favorite for my M3. This is a subsidiary of Hancook.
The Jurid pads did work. They were 13.8mm that seems to be the key.
I went from Sachs to B6 just in the front and it’s meh.
You throw em in the trash. Cuz no e36 deserves cheap headlights
Bilsteins suck on the E30 platform. I bought my car with them and the ride quality was trash.
