    I just put a set on the Land Cruiser (~900/set of front pads) and on the Jazz (~700/set of front pads).

    Said to have some sort of Ceramic Technology thingie. Currently both sets are less than a month old. I have no complaints.

    I've tried Bendix Standard pads before on some of the older units and I've had a so-so experience with Rico brake pads (cheap but you get what you pay for) on the Patrol.

    Anyone else have experience with Bendix Generals?

    I got them and had them installed at Glenn's/Ronald's shop in Kamias.

    Hi Doc, How are your pads holding up? I'm planning to get a set too for an old montero

    No brake dust problems on the Land Cruiser so far. On the Honda there is quite a noticeable amount. But nothing that a regular car wash can't take care of. Besides, these aren't show cars.

    I think the worst I've had are the Ricos. I also tried a set of Akebono pads before but I wasn't too sure if they were genuine Akebonos. Those held up quite well also. Used in a '96 Pajero.

    Augh currently have Bendix Metal Kings for quite some time now and I hate the brake dust.

    Can someone please recommend one with least amount of dust but still performs well? And how much does a regular set go for a regular sized car?

    have had the general CT on my altis for some two months already. cheap *Php680 - 800 but grips well and is silent. seems gentle on rotors too, judging how easily it was sanded and the amount of shaved material after just a few strokes. initially, brake dusts were observed but after about two weeks have subsided already. bought another set as i changed discs from the stock old, warped rotors to runstop slotted and drilled ones. one thing i learned is when changing to new rotors, better change your pads too at the same time. medyo nagkaproblema yung old/new ones kasi parang sumasabit dun sa slots ng rotor when braking, so have to shave them again (via sanding). kaka-sand lang din nya when i changed rotors. since makapal pa, wag na daw muna palitan. so i paid P200 to have it checked a day after the replacement, and may have to pay again to put in the new pads. (gawin ko na lang reserve yung months old thick pads). decided to go to a new set again for a more even wear sa new rotors and pads. pero balak ko i-DIY na lang sa bahay, para ma-clean and grease na rin brake assembly kasi sa shop talagang kabit lang din. kung sisipagin, baka i-paint ko na rin calipers.

    The Bendix lasted about a year on the Land Cruiser but the shop said it can be normal for heavy vehicles especially when running larger tires. I will probably try the Metal King as suggested by Dr. G's shop. On the 2010 Montero Sport, we replaced the stock tokico brake pads with Bendix also. Will upload photos later.

    have always been a bendix user


    during my last front pads and rear brake adjustment.

    on my office service car.
    have also used bendix on my Vios. it has overwhelming amounts of dusts but seems to do the job well. ok naman, would recommended it.

    OEM Tokico Brake Pads of the 2010 Montero Sport:


    Replaced with Bendix General CT Pads (Php950.00 SRP):


    Thinking of getting this one next time around for my Toyota (no price yet). Ok ba ito?

    Naka-try na rin ako niyan doc, mas maganda braking power and lesser talaga brake fade even in extended downhill drive. Definitely an improvement over the general CT.

    Bwiset ung RSPEC! Todo apak na di pa gaano kakagat! Muntik pang maaksidente twice dahil sa brake shoes na yan. Itry ko bendix kahit wala pang 1 month ung RSPEC at itatapon ko na siya :*

Anyone tried Bendix General CT Pads?
