Brake pads TRW or OEM Subaru

TRW Brake pads

I didn't touch the calipers, I thought the calipers were ATE, but could be TRW. I only changed out rears at this time, fronts are still the same. The pads are TRW ceramic something or others that came with zimmerman rotors in the cheapish FCP kit.

TRW Brake pads

I like the stock TRW performance pack pads on Brembo rotors. Stock PP brakes are more than good enough for a daily driver that gets occasional spirited driving. I also got 65,000 miles on the original set, which is a bonus

Pros: long life, good performance
Mileage: 65000 km

One of my inner rear pads went at 110k. FCP euro has a full brake kit front and rear rotors with Zimmerman and TRW ceramic pads for around $400. It's OEM style replacement, so no real upgrade performance to speak but it's a daily not a track car and the price was right.

Pros: price was right
Cons: no real upgrade performance
Mileage: 110000 km

I have Akebono on my 330 and TRW Ultra TXC1171 on my 328, I have to say the TRWs have excellent bite and the brake dust is minimal as well.

Pros: excellent bite, minimal dust
Vehicle: BMW
Part number: TXC1171

TRW Brake pads

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.

Pros: inexpensive, usable
Cons: not OEM quality

I had my brakes replaced in January of this year and the dealership didn't charge me. Within about 4 months they started squealing again. I took it back and they basically told me to pound sand. I shouldn't need a 3rd set of brakes on a car with 30k miles. This has been very disappointing and really soured my opinion of Subaru.

Cons: squealing brakes, disappointing

I can’t wait to get my brakes fixed under warranty. This will be the 4th brake job before 60k miles which is horrendous. Hopefully around Thanksgiving I’ll try to get her in. The shuddering, the noise etc are something I expect from a car with 200k miles, but my 14 year old Honda with 202k, which also has had 4 brake jobs, feels way better than my 2021 Ascent

Cons: horrendous, shuddering, noise
Vehicle: Subaru
Mileage: 60000 km
