Jetta has been relatively trouble free but a few quirks here and there. Sometimes the electronics glitch and then figure themselves out. For some reason my car burns through bulbs like crazy, especially the rear lights. Rear brakes had to be replaced around 30-35k. However, the car is an absolute tank otherwise.

Pros: trouble free, absolute tank
Cons: electronics glitch, bulbs burn
Mileage: 52000 km

OEM Volvo Brake pads

I have 2005 S60 Turbo as a daily. Bought it brand new in 2005 and she now has 157,000 trouble-free miles. However, being a European car, replacement items can be pretty expensive. I've replaced: brakes and rotors ($1,200).

Pros: trouble-free miles, aged well
Cons: expensive replacement items
Vehicle: Volvo S60
Mileage: 157000 km

Big fan of engine breaking... In my 03 GLI I ended up selling her at 160,000...replaced rear brake pads once, and never the fronts... Clutch was still tight and never any problems.

Pros: long life, tight clutch
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 257500 km

I need to change my brake pads and rotors soon. I'm using ECStuning, because it's the best place that I know of. I'm looking for OEM, don't need anything fancy shmancy. What are the differences between https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-volkswagen-audi-parts/economy-brake-pad-set-front/jzw698151/ and https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-volkswagen-audi-parts/front-brake-pad-set/5c0698151/ ? The 2nd one says without pad wear sensor, do I even need that? First one barely has a description, I don't even know which I should grab. Secondly, does my 2013 VW Jetta S 2.0 have rotors or drums in the back? I think I have rotors in the front? If rotors, what size do I even need because ECS is telling me I need 280x22, but deutsch auto is telling me a different pattern.

Cons: unclear part description, conflicting size information

My brakes are also "grabbier" and harder to modulate than my '16 GTI (312mm), which had great brake feel.

Pros: great brake feel
Cons: grabbier, harder to modulate
Vehicle: Volkswagen

  • Dust:
Rating 1.0

My front pads were noisy, kept the front wheels covered in dust and suffered from crystallisation due to severe driving conditions (temperature, humidity and slopes). The noise began at 1500mi and now at 6800mi it is so loud that it can be heard from 60ft away.

Cons: noisy, covered in dust
Mileage: 10944 km
