usually it happens that people buy the genuine one and send back fake one, it happens the same on amazon (with many items)!! The seller don t check with shrewdness and sell fake parts to a new poor buyer!! :(
I laso changed yesterday fron brake pads on my Polo 6n2, I sued also brembo, they where rapped in a vacuumed plastic but the bolts which have to be 4 for each side, they where only 2. But the box of the brake pads had a hologram sticker on them with the logo of brembo. From now on Brembo is out of my list of brake pads.
Brembo do not make their own brake discs or brake pads. They are outsourced to other companies who then stamp and box the products for Brembo in Brembo packaging. For instance, VW and Audi group cars may have the pads made in the same factory as Jurid (VW OEM) and the cheaper Citroen/Peugeot pads the same as Mintex (just a random name i am using) and both have completely different packaging.
Brembo sub-contract their pads to other manufacturers. So before you lose your mind blaming autodoc their pads often have different manufacturers stamp on. They are still tested and approved by Brembo.
So disappointed to hear auto duck haven't supplies you with appropriate brakes 🙄. To be truthful they do look really fake, will not be ordering from autodoc thanks.
Good video. I bought some pads for Mercedes CLA and heard about fake pads going around I got worried as these were good price online. Was happy when I opened box and saw the pads wrapped up in protective material, come with red backing plate, also had Brembo sticker, brake paste and warranty papers. I'm convinced real 👍
Thankyou for this video, i ordered some for a 4wd and they were fakes, left them in the store! There is a video from brembo on their low metal pads and they are black outside not red tho
The ones with the red back-plate are Nano-Ceramic ones, while these are Low-Metallic ones. You say they were used; this could be a return and the wrap paper got misplaced. Still no indication of a fake product. The faded imprinting on the logo is most likely a consequence of missing protection and rubbing against each other. These cost about $40 and the red ones $60 TODAY (for Mercedes GL450); makes no sense to manufacture genuine looking boxes and own the technology of laser imprinting, if you have the ability to bring to the market such a presentation; how expensive do you believe the compound is? Rest assured, they are most likely genuine. If you want a more profound re-assurance, send them to BREMBO and let they deal with the vendor.
Yeh surprisingly you would think that their performance oriented pads would have the red backing plate but its quite the opposite. The low met pads "look" cheap by comparison to the red ones, and ironically the NAO ceramics come with the nicely wrapped felt and the low mets do not. I verified all my bar codes and serial numbers with brembo too and this is 5 years later from this vid and they still look the same coming out of the box.

Well, it seems like the case was closed by refunding the money so that doesn't change the fact that the pads are fake. I'm a potential buyer of some brembo products but I can't just buy them and ask for a refund if they are fake. If an ordinary customer like on the video can spot the difference and return the pads, it clearly means that something is very wrong with the product or the seller.
There seem to be a lot of mis-information on this video. The QR code on the box on screen is identical to the QR code on my box of pad ordered from bembo. QR code lead to bremboacademy to a fitting and maintenance page...nothing about pad itself. of course this could be copy by fake, so it's not a indication of real/fake at all. As for the sticker seal this has a QR sticker while mine has a circular brembo sticker with serial number and bar code...now that could possible mean it's a fake. As for inside, mine is wrap nicely in brown thick paper with rubber band, comes with brake paste and brembo stickers and menu while this one has none of those which could be a red flag or just because the model of pad is different than mine with different packaging. The print on the shim does look worse than real brembo and the grey shim should have look more shiny than matt..that is also a red flag... the black paint on the pad side is also too thick and shiny compare to real pads .... issue resolve only means probably refund...but does not proof they are real though...buyers beware. I would rather buy from big chain retail or direct from brembo than save a few dollars for fakes.
Sorry, but this is propaganda. Brembo don't mske their own pads. They're made in India by Allied Nippon. But brembo is shit anyway. Ferodo premiere are the best.
This is what I heard too, brembo doesn't make all of their pads themselves, maybe a few, only i'm not sure about that. For pads I'm adviced to use Ferodo, disks Bermbo.
Did you get answer from Brembo ? I just got mine brake pads for Hyundai Elantra they were about 40% off a good price but they look exactly like yours same packaging one of the pads had a little piece missing from side I checked the parts number on website and they seem to be the same but still it looks fishy to me
Attention to aLL car expert. Just using water to cooL down disc brake & brake pad. I suggest about a miliLiter per minute dropping on disc brake directly is very safe whilLe traveling more than 100 mph. to prevent faiL brake due to overheating. Or simply apply radiator on brake pad / disc brake. BECAUSE SAFETY IS EVERYTHING

It's amazing to see so many people in trouble with autodoc. It's not my first order and never had any problem with this society.

100% this.
Most customers are clueless and just play the clever victim
Hi there, both brake pad fake or just left side fake?
I bought from brembo they come the same packaging style? Also black dust because they are semi metallic
So disappointed to hear auto duck haven't supplies you with appropriate brakes 🙄. To be truthful they do look really fake, will not be ordering from autodoc thanks.
Same happened to me I was hoping for a quality product for a good price but I feel I have been tricked. Really annoying.

Same has happened to me with euro car parts
They are still doing this. I am fighting them now.
Do you mean AutoDoc sell the fake one ?
It would seems so, can't say for sure if they are aware of it.

Will never buy from autodoc, especially after denying this clear proof of fake!
Autodoc is shit

Made in China?
I do not think so… These likely come from Pakistan. And the “black stuff” is paint.
Brembo,Ate,Trw most fake break pads
Buy only original BMW brake pads.
Did you get answer from Brembo ?

No, they did not answer to my email.
@@AK1RA74 that i think means it's not fake but makes other manufacturers partners
They are genuine but just made like crap...
