Brake pads OEM Hyundai or OEM Volkswagen

You can also try the harder OEM VW pad in the rear. They'll take longer to wear down than the soft version of the OEM pads and generate less dust. I installed them on mine last year and there is no layer of black dust between car washes. The down side I get noise when there is rust on my rotors but that usually goes away after a couple of braking stops.

Corrado 11 inch brakes should give plenty of stopping power. My Corrado stops on a dime too.

I took the car to the dealer and they put new rear pads and rotors on.

The R32 brakes are A LOT better. You'll like them!!

has anyone driven the new Elantra? I mean, I was IMPRESSED. I daily drive a 12 year old car, but the features, comfort, and ride blew me away. The steering's light, the brakes are touchy, but what a terrific commuter car. It's amazing to see how good these economy cars are, that the Elantra should place last. I fell in love with the Elantra the 4 days I got to drive it.

Passat has stronger brakes, by far. Actually, when I entered Taurus I couldn't believe how weak the brakes are. When I went back to Passat I almost threw myself out of my seat as I stepped so hard on the brake.

I ran DEs on one of my other Corrads and loved them.

Rear break pads...

We tow with the van, and load it up with parts to go to shows, and the brakes are not inspring confidence!

I've read some other threads where people have had to replace their brake pads at 20k miles or so, some think it was due to a tight emergency brake forcing the brake assist to clamp.
