Q7 Brake Pad Suggestions
Hello Everyone,
Our 2012 Q7 TDI is starting to demonstrate the dreaded "school bus squeaking" when braking. The rears need to be done for sure, and I think I am just going to replace the fronts as the dust the OEM pads generate make it a challenge to keep the 21" wheels looking sharp.
I have seen some suggestions on the web about Hawk Pads, has anyone tried those?
I have used Wagner Thermo Quiets on my BMW 8 series cars that have stock brake setups and they are surprisingly good, ceramic pad that are very affordable. I was on Rock Auto's site and noticed that they have pads for the Q7 and there is a rebate to boot. Just curious if anyone has tried these? If not I may make myself the guinea pig at $43.33 CAD for the fronts and $35.68 for the rears before a $30 discount...
If there are any others you have tried aside from OEM, please reply as I am curious for feedback on what people have tried.
Cheers,
Rob
