Brake pads Textar or OEM Audi
Brakes and rotors at 30K miles??? I just replaced mine on my 2016 A4 at 75K and the still had plenty of wear left. Yes, I drive aggressively too.

No. Looks perfectly normal.

I have a 2021 District Green Q5e / tan interior and it has been a fantastic car for my use case. 55% City driving means little to no gas use with home charging. Lots of road trips too, it’s a fast highway cruiser. 50k miles so far.
Pros: fast highway cruiser
Vehicle:
Audi Q5
Mileage: 50000 km
Brakes will last forever since I use so much regen.
Pros: last forever
Vehicle:
Audi
Textar
The textar pads are great for normal and slightly aggressive driving. The initial bite is great compared to ceramic pads, although they do dust a lot. To me the trade off is worth it for great pedal feel.
Pros: great initial bite, great pedal feel
Cons: dust a lot
Vehicle:
Audi S3
Upgraded brake pads can be louder and dirtier.
Cons: louder and dirtier
Vehicle:
Audi A4
Textar makes good pads but they get brake dust everywhere. They are currently the stock ones on my 23 m40i.
Pros: good pads
Cons: get brake dust everywhere
Vehicle:
BMW X3
they're Audi pads, with Extra squeek!
Cons: extra squeak
Well, I just put Textar pads on and am looking to swap them because they\u2019re super dusty and squeal with light pressure, so I too would love some recommendations.
Cons: super dusty, squeal
