Review on πŸš— Akebono EUR1473 Euro Ultra Premium Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Kit, GREY: Unmatched Performance and Superior Braking Power by Ryan Whatley

Revainrating 2 out of 5

An unfortunate mistake - replacement parts

Pads arrived quickly and appeared to be of good quality. Unfortunately, the pad wear sensor does not fit. There were 4 pads in the box WITHOUT the correct notch for the sensor. The 2 pads were wrapped in pairs and then wrapped all together in clear plastic. There was no difference between them. To make matters worse, I didn't realize it until the very last step of the work. I've done everything except install the sensor. I just assumed that the sensor would fit properly in one of the pads. To make matters worse, I had to do one wheel at a time. The first thing I decided was the driver's side. The pad sensor is on the passenger side. The wear sensor is now attached to the brake line with a cable tie until I have time to fit the correct pad there. Super annoying and disappointing.
