Brake caliper POWER STOP or OEM Audi

POWER STOP Brake caliper

I have Powerstop calipers and their Geomet rotors in all 4 corners of my XJ (probably pads too, don't remember), and I have power stop pads on my Caprice PPV (they are the cop special ones). Good experience overall. The caprice ones are really squeaky for one stop after any rain or fog, but fine after that. XJ is being rebuilt, so I have not driven it yet.

Pros: good experience overall
Cons: squeaky after rain

OEM Audi Brake caliper

  • Uneven wear:
Rating 5.0

Yes basically the same as Macan calipers, just a LOT less expensive. The feel is great, more pad area and better clamping force compared to the OEM single piston, made my tires scream for mercy. The weight savings is a nice perk as well.

Pros: great feel, better clamping
Vehicle: Volkswagen

POWER STOP Brake caliper

I bought some Power Stop DE calipers/rotors at a good price from rock auto, unfortunately they powder coat them red before they rebuild them. I knew this before buying them so today I prepped and painted them black to match the rears.

Pros: good price
Cons: powder coat them red

I do not think the calipers are anything special. Just powder coated. I had issues with them (seizing) and replaced with refurbed oem Chrysler. Running the powerstop rotors with EBC Green pads. I would just upgrade pads instead of rotors and calipers If could do it over again.

Cons: seizing issues
