Issue with Pagid rear brake pads - Page 2

biffa75 · 10th July 2022, 10:30

Having recently fitted new discs and pads all round I can vouch for mintex. Mintex discs and pads with ceretec ceramic grease.

I like EBC greenstuff. Have them on my Rover

I originally fitted Brembo discs and pads on the Citroen, after about 3k miles it developed an horrendous brake judder. I swapped the pads to pagid which stopped it for a while. It then started again, so I changed both the discs and another set of pagid pads. That cured it.

A few years ago I had a similar problem with mintex pads, it seems there are a lot of fakes out there. At least nobody can be bothered copying pagid lol.

I used Mintex pads on my 75. Was so impressed with the quality that my CR-V now wears them.

I’ve used Pagid pads on many different vehicles and never had an issue with them. I seem to remember reading they were/are OEM supplier to Mercedes?

My only comment on them is they produce a fair amount of brake dust.
