Can you make a list on brake pads from what you recommend to what you could not buy
I added the ceramic Akebonos to a Grand Marquis. The brakes are so incredibly smooth now. Thanks Scotty!
H-Town Texas N the House 🤠, Knocking at ur back Door 😎, Thank U Teacher 4 the Information 👍.
Bought a used S Class put on Zimmerman rotors and Akebono pads quiet and limited brake dust!
Akebono
I use Callahan Brake pads. Tommy Callahan traveled all over the USA selling these amazing products.
Those other companies sell you a guarantee. But what they really sell you is a guaranteed piece of sh!t.😂
Love that movie!
Watch out for Deer 😂
I hear a lot of CEO’s lost their desk top toys !
Makes me want some chocolate pudding 😂
LMAO 😂😂😂
I used to hear squeaking coming from the rear. Turned out if was my mother in law. Had to divorce my wife. To get rid of the squeaking. 🙂👍
You got rid of your wife but did you keep the mother in law??
@@johnmacdonald-bb2zj
😂 Both
Hilarious! 🤣
you gotta get those ceramic mother in law's, so much better
💀💀💀💀
Agree with Scotty on the Akebono pads. They are super quiet!
My partner and mech said just the opposite...said he almost got into an accident with his Akebono fail...coming off the interstate...I like Red Stuff and Yellow Stuff pads...Best in my experience....
@@echanlynneighbors-richmond794installation issues most likely. Used them on over forty vehicles with no "failure".
@@greendotscott5038 We have MBZ vehicles, and he's been in the profession over two decades, and my partner indicated he wouldn't install them on another vehicle with high horsepower. I dunno, I just know how to fuel a vehicle, and drive fast as I reasonably can. LoL...😃😎
Where do you buy those??
@@echanlynneighbors-richmond794who makes those? The best ones I've used are hawk hps
I love my KEVLAR brakes. LOW rotor wear. Progressive braking. It just grips harder and harder.....without pushing the break pedal harder. Lasts a LONG TIME !
I use Akebono and they work fine. No noise.
On Scotty's recommendation I got them as well even though I had to import them from the US (to the UK). Changed the discs (rotors) at the same time to Brembos. No squeaking, no dust, no change in stopping power from what was on there before, as far as I can feel.
This is terrible advice as ceramic brake pads tend to squeak a lot until they're up to temperature. I've actually found that the semi metallic squeak the least, but they don't last as long as the ceramic brake pads do, but they also stop your car faster, which is the whole point of having a break. So do what you will
Ceramics are harder but cleaner than semi metallic. Semi metallic pads are softer, usually quieter, actually outperform ceramics, easier on rotors, cheaper, but are very dirty and wear out faster.
Akebonos are expensive tho you’ll be fine with duralast gold or duralast elite
What if you like squeaky brakes? Which race pads to buy
The ones made out of nails for better effect use with rotors made out of chalkboard
Akebono is the OEM brake pad for many manufacturers.
I've always used the goop for the purpose, on the back side. Supposedly damps out the squeek.
Rotors are pretty cheap and easy to replace
Use Ginuwine Toyota pads with the proper shim kit and you won’t have a problem
@user-iu1rn3he2e Ride my pony
Organic pads will save your Rotors, ceramic pads wear out the Rotors. Pads are easy to replace stay away from Ceramic pads unless you want to constantly change the rotors. My 2004 Acura MDX is still running the original Rotors, the Dealership warned me NOT to use Ceramic pads because they might last forever but they wear out the Rotors. They only recommend OEM pads which essentially are soft material. The Rotors have over 270000 miles on them and were barely under original thickness last time checked.
I learned that from researching for my Harley brakes
It dosent matter. You should be changing the pads any time you change the rotors anyway. I promise you if you get decent rotors they will outlast one set of pads
I would double check the measurements on that rotor... Buut problem with softer materials is brake fade or glassing. But it you aren't straining the brakes too bad, I guess it doesn't matter.... the good old "it depends" I'd imagine putting overspec brakes on a car might reduce wear.... IDK I am no expert
Are you sure about that, even organic pads won't make rotors last 270k
Plus they have awful stopping distances and tbh are hard to find
What about duralast elite ?
It’s his hand waving for me ❤
Unbelievable.
Akebono
Callaghan (lower end of Power Stop)
Detroit Axles
discs and pads.
are all made in China.... you trust your life with made in china brakes?
I wouldn't use em.
There are only 1 or 2 brands that make them NOT IN CHINA.
I can't believe this video or the thread people recommending these cheapos. When in doubt use the OEM brakes.
Rotors are expensive? oO
I paid like 50€ for a front set for my '02 Suzuki Swift and around 35€ for the brakepads... Idk, I think that's fair...
It always depends on the car you drive (and have to maintain)...
I need to replace my brake pads... Before I seen this video a while back I purchased some ceramic pads from O'Reilly I think their brake best will they hurt my rotors?
For a 2017 f150 XLT crew cab.2wD I purchased ceramic brake pads from O'Reilly's brake best brand.. the mechanic told me that they would damage my rotors if I put them on . He told me to get some out of metallic so I don't know
2014 Mazda 3 has new front brakes and squeaks at low speeds and coming to stops. Everything new, slide pins new grease, lightly greased the hardware. Still does it!! Whats the deal!?
I just bought a 2012 5.0 SRT bed needs light work little rust on frame not nothing but it has 135000 running great paid 10000 did I go wrong
But how do I keep my 3 and a half ton truck from glazing the damn pads. Nothing more annoying than having BRAND NEW pads and rotors make a bunch of noise because they got a little hot.
I couldn't disagree more. I never install ceramic pads unless the vehicle came with them from the factory. There's a reason most heavy duty pickups and heavy trucks don't come with ceramic brakes. Most of the time brake squeak is due to the driver, not the parts. Also, a lot of times brake squeak can be prevented by the installer applying the proper lube in the proper locations.
I fitted ceramic pads to my car to replace the factory pads. They are crap! Soft pedal, poor performance and they actually fade out! Don't buy them! Sorry Scotty but I'm trying to find semi metallic to replace them with. It's a small hatchback with no towbar- so not heavy at all!
Any brake pads will make noise if not
installed correctly with the necessary hardware . Any brand of pads will make
noise on crappy rotors. Also, new rotors aren't that expensive on most cars.
Stay away from Auto Zone crap.
This guy is so full of s’!?
Squeak is cause by many things, vibration is only one possible cause. Ceramic pads will not solve all issues, and all ceramics are not equal.
Ceramic pads eat rotors for lunch !! They are toooo hard of material !! Semi metallic are best - Wagner Thermoquiet !! Never a squeak
Aki eko bono mono bruh if you use any reputable brand they work fine and don't just replace the rotor measure the thickness if good resurface them they will work good
Akebono ACT1210A i search and not find any thing is these compatible with toyota yaris 2016
Not true….I put new ceramic Akibono brake pads with new rotors on my Mercedes and they started squeaking day one
Maybe you should do a you tube video and explain the difference ceramic pads don’t work well until the heat up same with clutches
No matter what pads you get, you've gotta bed them in properly with a few hard stops and a few brake drags to heat em up, then cool em off by driving, then repeat the process.
What if you don't and like most folks just drive along normally?
Yes
When your rotors are glazed like Dutch apple pie squealing through the hood you will wish you had listened to Scotty....
Forget ceramic, I'd rather have to deal with changing the rotors every couple of years then be DEAD because my brakes were "oooh quiet" but didn't stop in time. Just my opinion. ALSO NEVER EVER use ceramic brakes on heavy trucks, there's a reason they have "fleet" brakes for UPS and FedEx etc, CARBON ceramic are by far superior brake pads over ceramic, semi metallic, etc etc. PFC all day. Ceramic pads suck for heavy use, downhill, or heavy stop & go traffic, they form a gas-like layer over the discs and are slick- which is the dumbest thing ever. But yeah, they're quiet lmbo.
Took your advice and have been using them ever since. Good stuff
Lmao my Akebonos that I put on my CC squealed like pigs. Front and back with new rotors
I need a mechanic to fix my car. Barttery just goes out. It's a new one alternative new what's draining the battery out help.
SCREEKY???
You don't have to buy the most expensive brand. There are affordable ceramic pads as well.
Be aware that ceramic brake pads do not have the braking power of metallic brake pads. If you pull a trailer or haul heavy loads just know that you will have to press the brake pedal much harder to achieve the desired effect.
Metallic pads ear rotors
Ceramic are much more resistant to brake fade though
Ceramic pads have a higher core heating and melting point this gives it better performance against fatigue. This is why cheap $19.99 pads fail becuse they literally melt off giving you less stopping power. This is why NASA and ROSCOSMOS use ceramic tiles for their shuttle re entry vehicles. You must be a troll.
That is true.@@FuttBuckerByMutt
@@EAMitch They do not certainly don't. You will never see a Corvette with the Z package with steel and carbon metallic pads never. He is a troll period.
I thought all pads were ceramic nowadays
I prefer the stopping power of semi-metallics but the parts stores around here only sell ceramics
I buy cheap pads ..they don't wear out my brand new rotors. First time scotty and l disagree, l can replace my pads in half an hour
Wish my neighborhood mechanic was like you
I buy cheapest pads autozone sells or I buy motorcraft or dealer for manufacturers pads which last no noise ceramic pads will destroy your rotors you want pads that wear not destroy rotors!
Akebono ASPs on my '16 Challenger, great stopping power, silent & almost zero dust.
Just my luck, but my Akebono brake made a groove on one side of the rotor. 😢
come on Scotty you know semi metallic pads come with squealers to keep that from happening.
Oh c'mon ain't no semi Metallic brake pads eating rotors in 8-9k miles Scotty 🙄
Don't ceramic brake pads have to be hot before they work well. So don't work as well if they are cold
What about Hawke pads? I've seen the diesel forum guys mention them.
I had cabon ceramic brakes installed on my 2019 Subaru Impreza and I love them! They don't discharge black brake dust, and they don't squeek. Plus, they don't fade when they get hot.
Do they stop normal cold, though? I never thought they were ideal on a daily.
@@cobrajeff96That's really the issue with ceramics, they don't stop well until they're hot
It's not a huge issue in something light, but I bet in something like a Subaru its really noticeable
@@LadyMistborn Unfortunately not gonna work for my 2004 Jaguar, she's a big girl.. over 2 tons 😂 probably going with Hawks
There’s no way you have carbon ceramics in an Impreza. Those cost on average 10k per set
@noah8260 Well, I bought them on ebay for cheaps. I have about 57,000 miles on them.
I see you’re holding a drilled and slotted rotor. Don’t they last shorter time and are meant for racing, not daily driving?
Scotty how often should I change the brakes on my Tesla? Never! Thanks
I got Detroit Axle because they were cheaper and came with a 10 year warranty, plus I always try to support more local businesses
Detroit Axle Here! Along with the drilled and slotted rotors
Are they made in the USA? Are there any good so far?
Bro said “local businesses”💀 those are made in china bruh
@@2beontopthey’re made in china, it’s more of a budget option. They work well but make alot of noise and my wheels are constantly filled with dust
Drilled and Slotted and ceramic pads from Detroit Axle 20K still look like new and very little brake dust
On a Gmc Sierra great products
Back in the day we cut a piece of milk carton and put it between the pad and cylinder. Squeek go bye bye.
Just spray the pads and rotors with WD-40. Just kidding don't try that.
Sorry Dude I like your videos..... but they are not available on tj jeeps
Rotors aren't expensive. Sure you can get expensive ones like anything.
Why not use break grease on the moving parts? Stops vibration squeaky
If you don't want to hear squeaky Scotty use ceramic brake pads
Try " Kevlar Pads " they Last upto 8 Times as long
as regular " Organic Pads " !
I change rotors every time. You all should too. Your life is worth a few dollars
These akebonos went up in Price mane they was 50 now they damn near 80 🤣
Brake noise has very little to do with the pad itself.
The main factors are almost always the way they are installed.
Most workshops will use copper grease on the back of the pads rather than a thin synthetic substance Ceratec. The grease causes your uneven surface , vibration and squeal !
The other two classic mistakes are not cleaning the hubs down properly when replacing discs/rotors which again creates an even surface and noise !
The last is not replacing the shims etc when you change the pads. Some cheap pads don’t come with them so people use the old ones and because they are worn the pads move and you get noise !
Visited hundreds of workshops that have complained about brake noise from a product, train them around these three steps and the complaints stop.
Even really good, experienced workshops I’ve visited can miss one of the three areas I’ve mentioned.
False I have high quality ceramic race pads and they to sweet.
Scotty can I use auto zone brakes they have lifetime warranty
Scotty dont ceramic pads wear out the rotors faster because ceramic is harder than steel
Great for small cars and SUVs but I don't recommend them for big trucks if your going to be hauling trailers ceramic pads don't allow heat to transfer away from the rotors as well as semi metallics and they end up warping before your pads wear out! Happened a few times to my boss before we figured out that's what was happening!
True. Get them for sports cars with drilled and slotted rotors. The holes will help with the heat transfer.
How exactly do ceramics affect rotor cooling?
They have slots through the middle for cooling specifically so the heat doesn't go into the caliper/fluid
Also semi metallics leave tons of residue and metal dust which would actually reduce rotor cooling
Ceramic for the win. I put nothing else on my vehicles.
Way to go Scotty, we use these up here in Canada all the time.
Put oil on them. Now you have a new problem but at least you solve the first one
there to hard the first time you put on the brakes they fade until warmed up !.
I truly hate that squeak i askd for ceramic the gen z gave me the trash smh
I don't like sqeeeky brakes or sqeeky brakes parts pushers
Grease the back of the pads.. It stops brake squeel.
WD40 will stop that squeak. 😂😂😂😂
why do my rotors go all wobbly in 5 or 10k? i live in Pa
squeaky brakes < soft brakes😂💀
Can we use greese to stop the noise? 😂
Asking for a friend
Akebono also Made in USA usually or always not sure
Akebono pro act and Brake Best select Pro!
That’s an annoying sound Scotty yes sir.
Get them hands a’goin, bud!
Chastity bono brakes? gimme a brake.
But the squeak is how i know i need nee pads😂
Toyota oem brake pads for me. Cant go wrong.
It could be from brake dust build up too
You are absolutely right, Scotty.
Had a neighbor tell me as you say.
He is a "retired" Ace Mechanic. Probably learned from your dad and grandfather.
He still repairs cars.😊
I buy second quality breaks or first quality from auto parts and dealer places . The dealer sells the better after market and cheep sometimes
No but ceramic pads crack.!!!
Don’t cost a lot if you got a older car
Eco bono brake pads Best 😊
ROCKAUTO MY FRIENDS
Thanks Scotty.
is bendix brake pads good?
Your show is the best 👍👍👍👍👍
I like carbon-ceramics.
or you can lubricate them
Like the sumo wrestler
Just use disc break quite
