Brake Pad Thread [Merged]

[Egan101]

ganda ng pagkaupod, hindi nadudurog sa edges. i tried PMU ns400 before nakakataas ng confidence.

Sulit sya for less than 3k but it is noisy and lots of dust. Good bite also for a semi-metallic pad.

Changing to Brembo NAO (ceramic).

Do you have a comparison with EBC and from other brands?

Sa EBC as of now walang comparison since bago palang.

But there is a new brand in the market which is Nisshinbo an O.E. manufacturer of brake pads and etc... I saw them in the post ni United Car Clubs of the Philippines. Apparently Nisshinbo is one of the biggest O.E. brake manufacturers in the world based on my research they are also the one supplying Brembo their original factory brake pads that Brembo supplies to car manufacturers since Brembo aftermarkets are made by a different brake manufacturer in China kaya pala magkaiba ang quality. Still waiting for the video ni United Car Clubs of the Philippines.

Then apparently Nisshinbo also has a factory in Korea they are O.E. to all Korean car manufacturers. The ones I see supplied by Nisshinbo to Hyundai's top selling vehicles are Accent and Grand Starex which are marked on the back plate of the brake pads with the abbreviations SAC means Saeron Automotive Corporation a Nisshinbo owned subsidiary in Korea.

Also many brake pads and brake shoe that are marked with NBK means Nisshinbo Brake Kit for Japanese made ones and NSA means Nisshinbo Somboon Automotive for Thailand made ones are abbreviations that it is made by Nisshinbo brakes.

All this time I thought yung 2nd generation na Montero Sport is made by another manufacturer yun pala NSA yung naka mark which is Nisshinbo Somboon Automotive na Thailand factory of Nisshinbo.

Nisshinbo has been offered in the Philippines recently their brake pads are specially designed with a J chamfer and diagonal slot for minimizing noise & maximum fade resitance while providing great stopping power.

Also price wise they are more affordable and similar to Hi-Q, but the difference is the engineering and their massive O.E. connections with car manufacturers and brake system manufacturers provided them the strongest expertise in manufacturing brake components. I was shocked to learn that the original factory installed brake pads(not the aftermarket ones) by Brembo is manufactured by this company.

Recently bought Hi-Q brake pads will try it out in my next pms. I have tried bendix, bosch and advics before.

What Advics variety have you tried before? They yellow colored one which is the Brake Star?

[Papajamba]

Hagen ceramic pads plan ko ikabit but sold out last year so I settled sa Hi-Q.
No complaints so far.

Btw, saw a large billboard ng Sangsin brake korea along SLEX.
Mukhang Primal ang official distributor locally. Sila din sa Vic and Fiamm.

Ok na ako with my Brembo NAO. Madali pa kausap yung dealer ko. Baka kukuha na rin ako tires at battery sa kanya.

Bakit kaya puro front brake pads lang available? Same rin ba para sa likod?

Doesn't the warning screech already mean it's eating into the rotor?

well, he heard it but didn't know what it meant.
some cars have a warning screech when the pads are thin and need replacement.
for other cars, the sound is already a sign that the metal backing is already rubbing against the rotor.
normally, i take a peek at the pads once in a while.
i don't see them regularly, kasi.

5.5 year PMS ko kahapon, 54k+ odo. Findings sa brake pads ko eh 4mm na lang daw. For replacement na daw sa next PMS sa December and refacing na rin daw ng rotor. Was wondering if sulit na ba? 54k+ odo before replacing the stock pads?

[Dr.Kamiya]

Do you see score marks on the rotor?

If you still have 4mm of pad then presumably there's no metal-to-metal contact yet and I don't see why they need to reface your rotor.

4 mm? palitan na, po.

if the car is beyond the warranty period,
i bring mine to banawe (or whatever your friendly mechanico-auto parts shop is), for break pad replacement. the mekanikos there will advise you if the rotor needs re-facing or not.
puedeng hintayin; about one hour kung walang pila.
and i am confident, you will spend less than half of what the casa will charge you, and no waiting time pah.

[yapoy86]

I dont advise on rotor reface unless its da one machine where the refacing will be done while the rotor is attached on the hub.

If the rotor have deep marks na.. better to replace na lang.. refacing and new rotor price almost same.. powerplus brand is good.. with factory coating.. the edges will not rust like the oem

[Egan101]

Kung humuhuni na upon braking, please have brakes checked and cleaned first. You would then if the pads needs replacement. If you have been running for over 30k km on same pads, I guess they will need replacement if you hear high-pitch sounds upon braking.

Wala man 1k yung brake cleaning in most car shops. Peace of mind with a small cost is better than resurfacing or replacing your brake rotors.

Ung sa amin, 130K kms, almost 9 years, bago pinalitan ang stock pads and shoes. Inantay ko ung screeching sound pero hindi ko narinig nor felt the metal-to-metal. Pinalitan ko na lang. Hindi rin ni-reface ang rotors so siguro maayos pa. Kaya nagtataka ako sa mga 30K/40K kms nagpapalit na ng pads.

"advice siguro ng service adviser". heh heh.

truly, the definition of PMS can sometimes be stretched to different lengths.

tekateka...
baka naman, puro long highway drives ang trip ninyo, kaya malaki mileage in between breaking events.

I replaced my stock pads several years ago I think it reach 40-50k only and I have been using replacement pads from then on and every 20-30k I have to replaced it.

Beyond warranty na doc. Nagchecheck na ko ng shop around Pasig na maayos gumawa kung sakali.

I googled for rotor score marks and parang ganun yung itsura na ng sa akin. Yung mga pabilog na guhit sa disk.

Kapag braking from let's say 50 kph and medyo madiin ang preno, may sound na yung para bang wooden cabinet na hinihila sa makinis na sahig.

BTW, bacback read ako hanggang sa previous years and parang walang nabanggit dito tungkol sa brand ng brake pads na gamit sa mobilio. Nagsearch ako and it seems Nissin ata ang gamit nila.
