Brake pads Bosch or OEM Audi

OEM Audi Brake pads

I have a 2021 District Green Q5e / tan interior and it has been a fantastic car for my use case. 55% City driving means little to no gas use with home charging. Lots of road trips too, it’s a fast highway cruiser. 50k miles so far.

Pros: fast highway cruiser
Vehicle: Audi Q5
Mileage: 50000 km

Bosch Quietcast pads. They have good stopping power, are quiet (so far) and have low dust, so they are great for my daily driver.

Pros: good stopping power, low dust

Bosch Brake pads

I had this problem after working on a friend's Infiniti FX35 and also using Bosch ceramic brake pads.

The problem for me was that Bosch pads have a different inside and outside pad for the rears for that vehicle. I've used Bosch pads before and never encountered this.

The pads were not marked and nothing on the box indicated there were different sides so I didn't notice. But they have protruding nubs on the backing that cause the caliper to not sit properly and increase their thickness, causing constant drag on the rotors.

Pros: pads cause constant drag
Cons: pads not marked
Vehicle: Infiniti
