vs
Brake pads WAGNER or OEM Audi
I just checked my maintenance notes and for my car I bought brake pads for $18.98 for the front set. They were Wagner OEX closeout and they are still going fine at 30,000 miles.
Pros: still going fine
Mileage: 48280 km
Wagner severe duty pads also have treated me well.
Pros: good performance
No. Looks perfectly normal.
Vehicle:
Audi 100
I've had no problem with Wagner, Bosch, Hella/Pagid, and Brembo; Raybestos, Bendix, Beck/Arnley, Centric, etc are all solid options for a daily driver too.
Pros: solid options
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
Oem is expensive and are dealer items, and quality aftermarket brakes are readily available. Look for raybestos or Wagner brands for domestic vehicles, ebc for European vehicles. And there is no need for oem wear parts
Pros: quality aftermarket available
Cons: oem is expensive
Upgraded brake pads can be louder and dirtier.
Cons: louder and dirtier
Vehicle:
Audi A4
Unless you thrash your car and don\u2019t care about it, a full brake+tire/alignment service at 30k is wild.
Cons: full service at 30k is wild
Vehicle:
Audi A4
Mileage: 30000 km
they're Audi pads, with Extra squeek!
Cons: extra squeak
