Brake pads TRW or OEM Mercedes

I would recommend getting TRW Ceramics if you're going to change them. Affordable, good stopping power, low dust, quiet

Just did the rear brakes on my 2015 335i

Just did the front pads and rotors on my wife’s 2020. Went with Zimmerman rotors and TRW pads and it brakes like a dream, was recommended them from a friend's euro and exotic shop.

the only issue I’ve had with it is the brakes squeak sometimes. They work fine but it annoys me and they say it’s “normal”.

My Golf has TRW and Zimmerman which are like OEM+ maybe

I’ll be switching to TRW Ultra pads when the time comes. All reviews say they are similar in performance to OEM without the dust.

I use TRW brake pads (just checked, articles are GDB3592 for front, GDB2172 for back). They make quite a lot of brake dust during spirited driving, but that’s not a big deal for me (IMO more brake dust = less wear on brake discs).

There is a lot of markup on those parts. A full set of TRW pads for an S60 can be had for a little over $200 inc GST from Repco and Repco ain't cheap.

They look about par for an economy, aftermarket brake pad. I use TRW on my beaters pretty often. Mine often don't come wrapped in anything other than a rubber band. They aren't OEM quality, but for 20 bucks a pair...I'll deal with it and have never had an issue.

Just changed brake pads on the S65. Discovered an oil leak, likely from a turbo line.
