Brake pads Textar or DIXCEL

I always use Textar - a boggo (albeit OE) brand, and never, ever have a problem.

I just daily my 17 GTI. The stock pads and rotors finally gave up at 103k miles. I was perfectly happy with the oem brakes, but not spending $700. I went Zimmerman and Texstar pads. So far no complaints, they feel like the stock brakes when they were new.

I have always ran DIXCEL Z on all my cars. Extremely quiet once you bed them in and has a temp range of 0-850°C with a friction coefficient of 0.67. They're just a bit dusty.

Ultima oara am schimbat doar placutele cu textar semi-metalice. Iarasi super miltumit. Nu simt nici o diferenta fata de Otto-Zimmerman.

I got genuine discs from ML performance for much much less than dealer prices, coupled with textar pads made to the same spec as M4 pads (M4 pads are also a drop in upgrade, I believe textar is OE for M4 pads), noticed minimal difference in performance though.

I did change my F30 with Textar and it was plug n play. No need to go big if you don’t go on track days often imo.

Quality pads and rotors tend not to warp out in a couple hundred miles. If you bought Durlast junk from Autoroo then that's the reason. Stick with OE/OEM Quality like ATE rotors and Textar pads.

I haven't done VW brakes in a while, but I usually use Textar pads on my BMW and Mini. They are OE supplier for most of the BMW brakes, but they do make a lot of dust.

I recently replaced some on a 981 with Textar and don’t recommend it. So much dust and some noise at low speed braking.

N\u00e1lam ugyanez a helyzet, gy\u00e1ri t\u00e1rcsa a Textar f\u00e9kbet\u00e9ttel rendesen vis\u00edt lass\u00fa f\u00e9kez\u00e9skor. Sajnos m\u00e1skor is j\u00e1rtam m\u00e1r \u00edgy m\u00e1sik aut\u00f3n\u00e1l, \u00edgy legk\u00f6zelebb ezt biztosan nem fogom megvenni.
