Another user exposed my disc to road salt, cold padel feel, longevity are all came back very positive, and his SUV has accumulated almost 113,000 miles without a single issue.
The OEM brembo pads and rotors on my Subaru would leave a lot of buildup for sure. A couple good hard brakes and it was clear.
I replaced all brake pads and rotors about a month ago on my 2014 Honda Civic EX with Brembo pads and rotors. So far they're working great, huge improvement over the warped front rotors and the warn pads before.
Some pads make more noise than others, I'm not going to use Brembo pads on my car again, they aren't making bad noises, just regular brake sounds at a slightly higher volume than my previous Napa brand ceramic pads.
Today i had replace my rotors cause are very warped both, and get installed the textar front discs with brembo ceramic pads... \ud83d\udc4d\ud83c\udffc Im tired of cleaning the front rims every 2 days.
Very common issue with Brembo calipers across brands. Basically, the galvanized bolt loses its coating and here you are.
Brembo rotors and pads are cheaper than OEM and way better.
Get some slightly more aggressive pads and GOOD OEM blank rotors i.e. Brembro. Do SS lines ATE super blue fluid or whatever the current offering is (they can't do blue anymore).
All 135i have brembo supplied oem brakes. They sure do look great and have 6 pistons up front. But, the functionality of said brakes are not more special than what BMW offers for the 335i and Z4 of the same generation.
I now have the same problem and know exactly how it happened, came over a long downhil mountain pass (NOT riding the brakes by the way) and later went to brake shudder/vibration from the rear. I have two new rear Brembo rotors and Pagid pads for a fun job on a car thats only done 18K miles. I think its the rear brake design is flawed from this standpoint
