Brake pads OEM Mazda or OEM Mercedes

Back in the early 1980s I remember how peer pressure kept guys at our Mazda dealerships from blowing brakes clean during inspections and repairs.

I put 220,000 miles on a Mazda six sport automatic transmission 2015 before my son wrecked it without doing anything except changing in the brakes and some steering parts and of course oil changes synthetic it had started to use a little oil between changes maybe a quart.

I bought the Mazda a while ago and hated it. I improved my skills and bought it again last night. It was a fucking blast. Have to be careful with the brakes and backend sliding but it is a straights rocket and has decent cornering without any assists.

My 2011 2.5 has 220,000 miles on it and it is the most reliable car I’ve owned yet. I bought it used with 45k miles and I have only replaced the tires once, the brake pads once, one engine mount, all belts including timing, and that’s pretty much it. The transmission still shifts pretty smoothly.

I took apart my fronts on my 2016 Mazda at 50k and was surprised that they were still at 50%.

Had the same scenario with my cx30 after changing the brakes, only the car messages were things such as engine malfunction and dynamic control malfunction which is ridiculous. Clearing the fault using a Bluetooth obd and the torque app was enough for me, thanks for the post.

Changed the pads front and rear was super easy and straight forward.Then after taking the car out of 'electric brake service mode' and starting the car I get the a yellow check engine light and code C05AB, clearing it made no difference. Only thing I could find online was "The electronically controlled brake unit detects that the pressure feed valve (primary side) is stuck ON (OPEN)."

brake screech that's omni present

Just changed brake pads on the S65. Discovered an oil leak, likely from a turbo line.

I put OEM Brakes on my ‘19 3 GT AWD. I’m 20K KM into them, and they pulse like mad when I brake above 90KM/h. Absolute fucking trash. The factory brakes also did this, above 90KM, but started around 50K into their life.
