I have a 2016 Camry & made to 200K miles before I had to change the brake pads.
The brakes will give you signs of wear prior to needing to get them serviced or replaced. It also depends on how you drive. I’m at 81k on the original brakes right now and still have life left in them.
I have a 2021 Corolla and the stock pads are on 70k miles, I've never had a new car with the pads lasting this long. There is a a lot of material left and I'm definitely getting the exact OEMs for replacements.
OEM pads made it ~62K on my '17 OR with a lot of towing. Rotors didnt have any wear.
I used a Toyota corrola for work . Hybrid 3rd generation. IV done 250k miles and so far . No mechanical faults . Only faults have been brakes . That's another thing due to the regen braking you can expect 150 k miles from your pads . Your disks will likely rust before they wear
I’ve been using Bendix metal king for my car, it outperforms stock pads from Toyota by a lot. For context, I’m from Sabah; under normal driving conditions and without another driver in front basically keeping their foot on the brake pedal. Our steepest mountainous road is Kimanis, gradients ranging from 10% to 25%; it handled the descend perfectly without fading as compared to stock pads. Traversing to-and-fro Kundasang was also a breeze, brakes would typically fade half-way down the mountain with minor traffic ahead. I’m looking to switch to Bendix Ultimate come time to change my brake pads. Though I have to agree with the brake dust, but if you wash your car once a week then it shouldn’t be that awful.
Pred 2 rokmi slo extra cca 200e na vyfuk a zadne brzdy a tento rok som menil komplet brzdy co vyslo 366e.
On the surface this looks fine, but w203s don't have fancy brakes. Bendix's for these are only $50-90. So they've hidden a lot of labour in that "pad" price. then they've charged you half an hour to change the discs as well. if the calipers are off the discs take about 1 minute each to change. Then did the discs really need changing? these are basic brakes. you can go 2 for 1 on discs to pads on these no problems. it may be they did need doing, but it may be they didn't. So, I'd say, it's not a rip off, compared to say a Stealer, but there is still a bit of fluff in this.
However, on Toyotas, I always pay the extra money for genuine Toyota discs and pads. They’re still made in Japan or the US. Whereas all of the aftermarket options for Toyotas are Chinese-made junk. And since those aftermarket ones wear out so fast, they end up being the more expensive option per mile vs the genuine parts.
Those Bendix Brake Pads have been almost doubled in price over store bought.
