Has anyone used TRW & REMSA brake pads & discs for their German cars?

I'm interested in buying brake pads & discs made by TRW & REMSA for my Audi Q5. I've been told these are high quality OEM parts. Has anyone have experience with these? Are these reliable & lasting without any problem to the car performance? Pls advise.

TRW is OEM for German auto manufactures. Lemforder is also TRW. Very good quality. If you can get ceramic, I would recommend them. You will have nearly zero brake dust on your wheels and they will wear very slowly. Caution that on initial application of the brake you may feel they are slower to "grab" especially when cold. As the ceramic heats, they perform better and better.

Thanks. I'm also planning to change the brake discs/rotors with the pads since they're worn out too & so the pads will get longer life.

It is always best to use the manufacturer's brand or the ones recommended by the manufacturer.

OEM pads may not bed in properly or wear unevenly and can cause damage to the wheel discs.. So be wary ..
