Brake pads OEM Volvo or Bendix

I’ve ran the Bendix GCT pads in my daily for years.

Minimal dust and good lifespan, and they work as they should.

I’d prefer them over the likes of Bosch and Protex.

Regular DBA's (street model?) i was getting 40k kms, the Bendix heavy duty's i was getting nearly double that. Never had an issue with them.

I run Bendix and they are good

XC90 T8, total 135k km on the clock and have done 85k km ourselves:

- previous owner did the brake pads at about 40k km

- we have now done front and rear brake pads recently (so after about 90k km use), both front and rear still had about 3mm to go.

Since we know Volvo has undersized the brake pistons for their SPA vehicles, leading to issues with pulsation. Instead of upsizing the brakes, they have released several pad revisions, have the latest pads slowed the occurance of brake pulsations?

Brembo or Akebono. Makalat sa brake dust yung Bendix at marami rin fake.

Bendix gets the job done for its cheap price. May mannotice ka lang na noise when braking from time to time but still walang slippage whatsoever.

Brembo ceramic brake pad, or akebono. Pangot bendix matigas masyado. Mauna pa maubos rotor mo

Bendix is horse shit. Akebono is the best.

The brand Bendix had confused warnings on their brake pad boxes.
