Brake pads DBA or Duralast

I’ve always put Duralast Gold pads and rotors on my vehicle. I’ve got no complaints and they have a lifetime warranty.

A few weeks ago I replaced the front pads and rotors on my ‘21 grand touring. I got Duralast Gold rotors and Duralast Elite brake pads from Autozone. An independent repair shop installed them. They are working fine. I decided to purchase from Autozone for the warranty, which is lifetime on the pads and 3 years on the rotors.

I have these exact pads. HUGE improvement.

I had the same problem. Just ordered ceramic pads from auto zone and swapped them out. Car is smooth and quiet now. I can’t stress enough the difference it makes for anyone dealing with the noisy rough brakes.

I bought Dynamic Friction for my wife’s car and have been happy with them.

I have the T2s and the DBA SP Street Performance Brake Pads, the green ones, on 4 corners along with SS brake lines. They have been rock solid since sept of 2022 over 50k miles. Hardly any brake dust compared to Stoptech street semi metallic. They are a great all-round setup, Street and canyons.

I'm running DBA Street Performance pads. Low dust and performance seems fine. I'd buy again.

Everyone in Aviation has switched to Duralast brayke pads, it seems... They should have stayed with Akebono.

Used to use the DBA XP pads but they were far too dusty.

Same issue here. I replaced the pads twice with the same brand (Duralast Gold), and the issue is still apparent. It appears to be an issue only with the 340mm brakes for Golf Rs and Tiguans.
