Unique to BMW

loves these ceramic brake pads. Literally no dust! The brake feel is the same if not better, contrary to some comments I've read elsewhere the brake feel is fairly linear and inspires confidence.

Pros
  • Satisfied until now
Cons
  • Older model

Wrong product in the box. Opened much earlier

So my car is on jack stands and the brakes are off. I opened the box and compared the new brakes to the old ones, they are completely different sizes. Box said it was a proper Akebono EUR1473 part, but inside were ACT576 parts going to Mercury. I have a BMW 535i.

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Long delivery time

They are ceramic and emit very little brake dust.

The best pads I have ever bought. Paired with my Zimmerman rotors, these pads are the perfect combination for quiet operation and minimal brake dust. As a precaution before buying from Amazon, I found the correct part number for the pads on the manufacturer's site.

Pros
  • I hold my fists
Cons
  • The list will be long.

Great replacement for 2012 BMW X3

Fits my 2012 BMW X3 with electronic brakes. No noticeable difference in braking performance compared to the OEM. Remember that on the X3 with electronic electronic brakes, you can remove the stepper motors behind the caliper, reset the position, and then push the caliper piston back. I recommend watching it on YouTube before you start. It took me several hours to get both rear brakes.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Great replacement pad for 2015 BMW 535i xdrive

Used these as replacement pads for a recently purchased 2015 535i xdrive. Feels similar to the BMW pads they replaced, good grip tests with panic stops and general pad fit. No creaking, no squeaking. I suspect that because of the ceramic there is less dust coming off the wheels. Oh yeah. Don't forget a new wear sensor for the rear pads. Unlike the front pads, these Akebono pads do not come with a new sensor. The BMW dealer charged me $1,900 to replace pads on all four wheels and new rotors…

Pros
  • Looking forward to
Cons
  • Negative impression

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…

Pros
  • dream come true
Cons
  • secret
