How long can it last? Mine seem to be going pretty fast, now about 30K km
plus and only left about 30-20%. Time to change soon.
Other then EBC, are there any good pads anyone else can recommend.
Please, no Don or Mintye stuffs....

all of the above had good feedbacks . bendix depends on which model ,
there is bendix plus bendix gold this should be okay la for daily use ..

I myself use Metal King right now, my comment was i wont use this again if
there another better choice. B'cos Metal King Plus making noise and make
my wheel dirty . I wish to try EBC Green Level, but still thinking of
price abit too high. on almost same price as Metal King Plus, as I know
only EBC Black Level. I heard Bendix got new brake pad comes up, less
dust, and wont making noise, sound like yellow pad, but i didn't c the
products yet.

I'm not very good on car troubleshoot, but i try help u here, if anyone
here can give me more advice, lagi bagus, TQ.
u said eat one side ? it's mean u feel your car go one side while u press
padel ? or u saw / measurement your disc tickness both of them alot
different ? did u ever do 'cut' of your both front disc ? yours is 1.6 or
1.5 or maybe 1.8 ?
and where u change your brake oil usualy ? EON Authorised Service Centre ?
maybe got air in the brake hose and it cause your car go one side while u
press brake pedal. another thing u can chk is the brake oil tank, c the
oil dirty not ? or still new ? if dirty, maybe got pump shield problem.
these are my comment, if anyone got more comment/advice, pls give Blacksun
a help, TQ.

one side of the brake pad finsih faster then the other? Or the disc is
warped at one side? Or got some black mark at one side?
How do you know if it eat one side, butt feeling or some mechanic told
you so when doing servicing?
"wira 16months old car, change brake oil every 20k, using dot 4"
Whats is the mileage of your car? Change brake oil every 20K, travel
outstation weekly or daily?
