Brake pads OEM KIA or OEM Volkswagen

Especially if you've got a 2019+ Mk7.5, stock Performance Pack brakes will be plenty. That's what I brought to the Dragon. Just make sure your brake fluid is good and you're not due for new pads and rotors for a bit.

1.4 auto is a good box. Will be nippy but get the brakes checked and renewed if necessary.

I bought a 2023 kia soul specifically for uber and just hit 100000 miles. Only problems ive had are nails in my tires and recently changed my rear brake pads.

I am driving a 2012 Kia rio hatchback daily. Over the period I did regular maintenance such as oil changes and some minor fluid changes. Changed tires twice and replaced front suspension parts and break pads once over 13 years of ownership.

I did my own brakes, sorta with and without the special tool. My conclusion is that the tool is not strictly needed.

My rear breaks also wore out faster. I just had them replaced (1 month outside the extended warranty lmao kms) at 27k km.

The rear brakes did fail earlier than I would've hoped at 26,000 miles, but this is a known issue.

I'm convinced the MK6 just has shitty brakes (I mean they do stop but I think they're just bad). I've had 2 of them and they both wear unevenly, hang up, or just in general wear out too quickly.

If you have white, the break dust will color your car.

I went to Northland VW this past spring for my 22 jetta, just for an oil change and inspection. Their oil change was close to $200 and then they said I needed my front brake pads and rotors changed. They quoted me close to $1000 for that, for just the front brakes!!! I went to lordco and bought the parts myself and got a local shop to put them on. Going that route cut the cost in half.
