Brake pads DBA or OEM Audi

Brakes and rotors at 30K miles??? I just replaced mine on my 2016 A4 at 75K and the still had plenty of wear left. Yes, I drive aggressively too.

No. Looks perfectly normal.

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.

Brakes will last forever since I use so much regen.

I have these exact pads. HUGE improvement.

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.

Upgraded brake pads can be louder and dirtier.

My S4 needed brakes at around 30k. I had a couple dealerships price it out and it was about that.

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

they're Audi pads, with Extra squeek!
