You won't have a hard time getting bendix pads, madami yan sa suking autoshop. Go for Bendix Metal king pag sa SUV mo gagamitin such as fortuner.

si speedlab meron bendix metal king.... very good bite and brake fade resistance ang metal king, you never know when you'll need that stopping power...hehehe

Hi mga sir need advice Lang my brakes are making a metallic sound na parang wet ang brakes even after uminit na ang brakes n car, n if run to a speed of 60kph above when I step on the brake my thud sound na tumutunog mostly sa front passenger side.this happen after crossing flooded waters last week aside from the noisy brakes ok pa naman lahat brakes are working fine malakas ang kapit.

Na pa linis ko na din yung brake pad n rotor, also just change to new pads last month n flush my brake fluid before the flood.

question i have a toyota vios which is front wheel drive/ fron disc rear drum...

now i noticed some drag when i cruise with it... so what i did was with the hand break dis-engaged i jack up one of the rear tire at a time and spin it, one was spinning freely (driver side) and one was hardly spinning (passenger side)

what shall i do, i plan to remove the drum and see if it would spin freely...

Speedlab is over at 12 Pagataan street over in QC. To get to Pagataan, if you're on Banawe in the direction of C3 / Araneta, turn right on the last alleyway before you reach C3 / Araneta. Pagataan runs parallel to C3 / Araneta and sits between Banawe and Biak na Bato.

Did you drive your car through a flood or was your car submerged? Sounds like a stuck brake. You might as well have it opened and checked. The caliper on one of my rear disc brakes got stuck before after I drove the car through a flood. I ended up replacing it.
