The e-Golf still uses the friction brakes to bring the car to a complete stop. Aggressive stopping also requires the friction brakes, which I do occasionally. Between those to, the brakes seem to avoid any significant rust build up.

Pros: avoid significant rust build

Brakes are too small and while not a safety issue per se, they do tend to warp due to heat. I had to replace my front brakes every 12-20k miles initially. Went to slotted/drilled rotors that got me ~40k miles. Finally "upgraded" to the 2013+ brakes which solved the problem for good.

Pros: solved the problem for good
Cons: warp due to heat

As you can see I have a 2016 GTI PP (Big Brake). I love the car and the brakes are outrageous. At over 140 MPH I had to get on them hard because somebody decided to move left because he didn't like me driving fast. They are fantastic.

Pros: brakes are outrageous
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I don\u2019t have warping or shimmy issues but above 50ish mph when braking I get this loud whirl or hum type of thing. It\u2019s very loud it\u2019s from the rear. I never had this issue on my s3 and it\u2019s the same setup minus the pads. Not sure. I\u2019m thinking of getting golf r or s3 pads and installing them.

Pros: no warping or shimmy
Cons: loud whirl or hum from rear

Brakes don't squeal, but, at least when they're cold, they seem to grind/shudder/skip (not a warped rotor type of shudder) at low speeds.

Pros: brakes don't squeal
Cons: grind/shudder/skip when cold

The front brakes have suddenly started vibrating under a heavy load on my Alltrack. The dealer replaced all rotors and pads just before I bought the car. the new brakes have about 6k miles on them.

Cons: vibrating under heavy load
