Brake discs POWER STOP or OEM Volkswagen

Replaced everything with PowerStop, no issues since.

Buy a set of PowerStops and call it a day.

I’ve done this on both my 6s and never looked back.

Switch to powerstops and you are set for the next 50k miles (depending on your driving style/conditions). My OEM rotors warped around 16k miles, dealer resurfaced and it warped again at 20 something. Replaced with another new set of OEM rotors which too warped before my car hit 30k miles. I followed other lads on mazda6club forum and switched to Powerstops and it is still going strong at 62k miles.

I use Powerstop rotors with akebono pads and works better than OEM in my opinion. I don't like Powerstop pads because they have a break in procedure whereas akebono does not.

I put them on my truck first for better braking while towing and was so impressed with them that I put a set on my wife's rx350 as well just because they feel so much better than stock, IMO. They are outstanding. They just feel more robust/solid under heavy braking vs. stock.

if you're going to take it back to the dealership, ask them to mount a different set of wheels and tires to eliminate that finally.

also, when was the last time your brake disks were replaced? it's not uncommon for brake dust to build up in the rotor and cause an imbalance. simply use compressed air or water to clean out the inside of the disk and see if it improves.

just as i hoped my front rotors were warped. new oe ones solved my problem now no shaking from the front.

Powerstop rotors and pads. Stocks where starting to squeak so upgrade time. Definitely a difference in stopping power

My Golf R's brakes look like this as well. I have 10K + miles on them but they have been like this since 2-3K miles. I'll say it's "normal". Even though i haven't experienced it with other cars that i can recall.

I looked at the brakes on our Tiguan, and it has one disc that is notably scored, same way. We just crossed 2k miles.
