Brake pads Tesla or OEM Volkswagen

Phaeton brake pads have a sensor attached that when pads have worn sufficiently thin, the sensor will wear through and provide the brake warning light to illuminate. The warning means that you need to replace the pads in the near future.

Rear brake pads replaced at 42k.

Hmm, I find my Golf TDI brakes to be excellent. Havent tracked them, but have punished them on occasion with liberal use of power on the highway, even combined with going down hill, and have never experienced fade.

As for the brakes the S2 16v's should take it hands down.

But the MK2 brakes by far hands down feel better and seem to grab better. I'm not sure why that is, they are actually more worn than my Mk1.

I forgot to mention that the Corrado has had the oil and filter changed within the last 300 miles, the brake pads have plenty of pad life, and the tires are in decent shape.

What type of maintenance do they need? Can you get parts for them (say brake pads) easily?

Rear break pads...

The brakes are **** for anything but driving on the street, but most people know that already.

We tow with the van, and load it up with parts to go to shows, and the brakes are not inspring confidence!
