Manufacturer's recommendations. First of all, when choosing brake pads, you should take into account the recommendations of the automaker. Since Renault Logan is available in several modifications, there are differences in the brake system. Most of the models that are produced in Russia are equipped with discs with a diameter of 259 mm. Some modifications with a 1.4 liter engine are equipped with 238 mm discs. In this case, the brake pads are installed at the front the same. But the shape and size of the pads for the first and second generation Logans are different, which is explained by the different design of the brake system. Genuine front pads Renault have friction lining 18 mm thick, the minimum thickness is limited to 6 mm. Rear brake pad wear is 3.5 mm (including base). For clarity, all the recommended codes for original pads are given in the table.

Technical specifications. To determine the quality of brake pads, experts conduct tests on several parameters.

1. The braking distance is one of the most important parameters. The lower this indicator, the more efficiently the pads work.
2. After installation on the vehicle, new parts must rub against the surface of the brake disc. The faster this happens, the faster the maximum braking performance will be achieved.

The linings should wear out during driving. In this regard, the manufacturer has to look for a fine line between the wear resistance of the linings and the integrity of the brake disc (drum).

Brake discs must retain all their qualities even during extreme stops. Therefore, there is an important heat test to determine the degree of abrasion.

We have selected the 10 best brake pads for Renault Logan. All of them have been tested by specialists for basic parameters. Consumables can be purchased at car dealerships in our country. When compiling the rating, the opinion of the expert community and feedback from the domestic owners of Renault Logan were taken into account.
