The factory pads/rotors on my 2011 Outback 3.6 have 90k on them (70% highway miles) and are still in good shape. I'll probably never buy discount parts store brakes again.
Bought top of the line brake pads Front and rear for 115 dollars a you tube video and a 7 dollar spanner got me through the job. Didn't need rotors I've learned shops automatically want to change those.
Habe schon alle Marken durch von Brembo bis zu Zimmermann.... Nur ATE hats drauf, werde nur noch deren Bremsen kaufen.
ATE und Schluss aus. Damit hatte ich immer top Qualität und nie Probleme.
I just put some ATE pads on the rear. High quality for only $30.
When you need brake pads and rotors get ATE.
I went in for a 30k service (2021 Ascent) and mentioned the brake judder and warranty extension. They confirmed and ordered the parts (pads and rotors), awaiting parts now but it seems it will be all be covered.
Even the parts prices are on a different level, ie brake pads with a Volvo logo on them - 160€, with ATE (they allegedly produce the original pads too) logo - 60€...
I had to change the front factory break pads on my Outback 2022 after 28k km (~18k miles). Dealership told me it is normal ...
My 2022 outback wilderness went through 2 sets of pads and rotors in 35,000miles. They warranted the front rotors at 8,000, but didn’t replace the pads. Then they warranted all the rotors but not the pads the second time. However, I do drive fast and late brake.
