114k still on factory brakes all around!
Brakes are good
The anodized drilled/slotted rotors just got their 2nd pad change with Bosch quietcast ceramic pads. Zero noise,much less brake dust and last longer than the 2 years of the messy oe pads on our 3.7 ton Yukon.
Also, brakes are really good. They dust like hell, but stop the car well and feel good doing it. Confidence inspiring.
If you get a mk7, get the lighting and performance pack. The headlight performance is astonishing. The performance pack brakes are amazing not to mention how sweet the diff is on a back road.
Same, with a 2015 on stage 2 tune it can be pretty quick and on road trips with the cruise set to 70 it can pull some pretty fantastic fuel economy.
Just bought some Bosch brake pads and rotors off of Amazon. Made in China as well. The quality of the products were good too. Fit perfectly and works very well.
Yep... had that happen with my GLI. Stg 1 A6 GLI and the brakes really couldn't keep up w/the car. Upgraded them to A6 Golf R fronts and no problem now stopping.
Ugh, somehow these pads are even dustier than the stock pads on my STI. I didn't know that was possible.
My front pads were noisy, kept the front wheels covered in dust and suffered from crystallisation due to severe driving conditions (temperature, humidity and slopes). The noise began at 1500mi and now at 6800mi it is so loud that it can be heard from 60ft away.
