I change brakes at least yearly, sometimes more often if I'm driving in mountainous areas alot. I always buy the Bosch ceramic brakes and just buy the low cost rotors because I change them at every brake change (cheaper than having them turned in Phoenix). I buy everything off Amazon. A four wheel brake job will cost me less and $100. 2019 LE.
I've been using the Bosch QuietCast ceramic brakes in the past and have zero complaints so I think I'll go with these: BOSCH BC1212 QuietCast; Ceramic - Rear ($26.79) BOSCH BC2076 QuietCast; Ceramic - Front ($37.79) I'm looking for high quality/high value. I don't need "high performance", I'm not doing any track stuff, just basic commuting but would like longevity, value, performance, etc. I ended up getting: POWER STOP JBR1763SCR (Daily Driver) Semi-Coated - Front BOSCH BC2076 (Premium) QuietCast; Ceramic POWER STOP JBR1764SCR (Daily Driver) Semi-Coated - Rear BOSCH BC1212 (Premium) QuietCast; Ceramic It was around 260 dollars with tax and shipping.
I've had good luck with Bosch (made by Varta iirc) and Yuasa.
Also use and prefer BOSCH for my wiper blades. No complaints, so far.
I don\u2019t know about Starline or Valeo, but I do know that Bosch are the longest lasting wiper blade I\u2019ve ever had.
I would always go Bosch. Last longer in my experience.
I installed new front brake pads (Bosch quietcast 621) and they squeal when I'm driving with them. It doesn't seem to be generating a crazy amount of heat or wear but it's really annoying. So it turned out it was the clips that came with the pads. When I installed the new pads I didn't pull out the tab on the bottom clips. Driving with the new clips damaged them so they were no longer usable. I took the pads off and put the old clips on properly and the sound was gone.
Just bought Icons last week. The shimmy they do on the driver side is difficult to put up with.
I'm running Bosch Icons, which fit my two previous cars very well, but on the Niro (2018 PHEV), they are lacking. They stutter and streak.
