Then, I bought ATE rotors and kept OE pads. ATE resolved problems; there was no vibrating for 22,000 miles so far!
Best Brake discs for Volkswagen Tiguan
I run them on my Tiguan and they’re working out well for the past 3 years although they’re also not a left and right set.
EBC has worked well for us on 3 cars already. When time comes our 2020 Tiguan will most likely get the BSD Series Sport Rotor w/Ultra Quiet V Slot Configuration. Had those and the Red Pads on an 03 GS300 and Red Stuff brake pads with some generic slotted and dimple rotors on the back. Excellent and smooth!
Anyway 09 Tig SE and went with Zimmerman Rotors and brembo pads. Alls I have to say is a good choice. Not low end - not super deluxe - assume all Made in Europe. happy with the quality of hwy braking and that’s all that matters for me.
I put Brembo Sport rotors with EBC Red Stuff pads and ATE TYP200 brake fluid. Works great.
I have had a positive experience with ATE rotors from a German brand. I had a bad experience with Bosch brake pads in Europe a few times; they squeaked and made noises at low speeds
It looks like you got the C-tek ones, which don't have any protective coating on the non-wear surfaces, which is why you see the rust.
Brought mine into dealership, the service advisor said they manufacture these rotors out of softer material now so they don't warp down the road. The softer material downside is that they wear faster. I don't believe that at all. If they wear faster, wouldn't it be more even wear and not scored lines in there??
I looked at my wife’s Tig and they look bad as well only 3900 miles.
I took a look at my breaks and noticed the exact same wear on passenger front. Have SEL-P 4Motion R-Line and only 1100 miles.
