Brake pads WAGNER or Tesla

Pastiglie freni: le cambi dopo 200.000 km

Wagner thermoquiet here. Works perfectly.

I have a 2018 Tesla Model 3 with 60k miles on it. Never been serviced beyond tires replaced, cabin air filter replaced and adding window washer fluid. Brakes look brand new.

I’ve used Wagner thermoquiet pads and the cheapest wholesale close out rotor with good results.

Bosch and Wagner rotors and ceramic pads are my preferred brands. I put new Wagner front brake pads on the Frontier 5 1/2 years ago and they still have about 3mm left.

With regenerative braking, you almost never need to replace brake pads.

Rear motor oil pump. Plus the famous Tesla control arms and heat pump. A brake pad also disintegrated into nothing, so that was a weird one.

The BIG difference is the brakes. In normal driving you're using one pedal driving, and this means two things. Firstly you're hardly ever using the actual brakes, almost all your braking in normal driving is through regen. Secondly because the regen braking is quite powerful, the actual physical brakes are relatively small. The brakes are great until they aren't, and they aren't great when you really need them.

I've had a lot of warranty repairs for my 2018 Tesla model 3: both sides for front upper control arms, both side rear suspension, a gear oil motor leaked, and an inverter. Paid out-of-pocket (not warranty) for both sides front wheel bearings, front brake rotors and pads, rear brake rotors and pads, front windshield, roof glass, and now paint and rust work around the fenders and rocket panels.

Got a 60k MYLR, my pads and rotors seem fine but I keep getting this super loud squeal sound when I brake.
