Use akebono pads is good enough.

Actually, usually how long does a brake pad last?

Depend on your driving style. I had my pads on my P1 from beginning till now 140k km still looking good without much wear and tear.

Mechanic and I had it removed to confirm it is in good condition and both are stunned it is still gooding.

My stocks on city last about 90k which is good, but now that I've changed to after market, not sure if they last that long

I driving Honda City 2014 model. Honda Service Centre told me front brake pad cost RM594. I'm shock when my friend told me usually cost around RM150 only.

If I change it outside, will it void my car warranty?

my 6 years old City at mileage 80K KM, the honda service centre foreman said still ok, no need to change.
I drive sometimes fast sometime follow speed limit.

Please avoid bendix. Dirty and noisy as hell.
I'm gonna try akebono next. But this brake pad I use 1 year only. Abit sien to change so soon.

By the way. I do not know what went wrong, but my brake seems to produce some noise. Like those you always hear on old cars and motorcycle braking.

Any ideas? Brake pad for all changed more that 1 year but less than 2 years. Front bendix, back dunno as get from workshop.

Did you get Bendix metal king? Then Yup, it's dusty and noisy. The bendix general CTs are better in my opinion. Brake dust takes a while to form on the wheels and it's silent.

Yes metal King. But I thought this is better than general CT?

Sorry, I meant bendix CTs are better in terms of quietness and noise. Brake feel wise, i can't tell the difference between these and my originals.

Get ceramic brakepads if you can. It is more expensive but it produce less dust and last longer. I am looking at getting TRW Dtec. Seems like lots of positive review from users.

I'm getting another new pair of trw dtec for my city gm6 soon
my current pair last me for 45k km ...worth the money

I just changed both my front brake disc and brake pad of my Honda city Gm6. The new brake disc is from Honda and the brake pad is from trw dtec. When driving in low speeds and applying abit of brake (not fully), i can hear a fine metal screeching sound at the front right side. I have been driving a few days and the sound is still there. Is this normal?

not sure if the installer done it correctly.by right if both are new , shouldn't have that sound . maybe go back to the installer and ask him to check.

I only heard the screeching soon when my brake disc is uneven . not going to change my brake disc if it didnt affect my braking distance and safety

btw , ur trw dtec part no. is GDB3375DT OR GDB7786DT?

Do u mean the red plate with the trw wording on it?
I also bought mine at PH auto seapark for rm90.

Actually my brake is working fine but just the screeching sound is kinda annoying and i afraid it will damage my new Honda brake disc. I probably will get it check as u advised. Thanks!

yes , that red plate ... not convenient to go ph auto seapark nowadays as I didnt work in PJ anymore ....

Yes, it comes with the red plates.

cool then . that's the best part with TRW DTEC . better stopping power , cheap price and cool red plate !

3375 is thicker by 0.5mm ...lol ...
