Rear Volkswagen brake discs are not used as intensively as those at the front. Consequently they wear not as quickly. Nevertheless, we recommend you do check them regularly, especially if your type of brake pad is not equipped with a brake pad wear contact which warns you when they need replacing. A set of rear brake pads for your Volkswagen tends to have an average lifespan of 31 000 to 37 000 miles. The Volkswagen brake pads that you buy at Mister-Auto's, are automatically sold in sets of four. All professionals in the automobile industry agree that it is best to replace one's brake pads at the same time as the brake discs to ensure effective braking and to have both last as long as possible. On top of that, Mister-Auto offers you rear brake pads for your Volkswagen from top brands including TRW, Bendix, Textar, Bosch or indeed ATE. To best determine which brake pad references are most compatible with your Volkswagen, please enter the model and engine of your Volkswagen in the drop down menu.
