Hey guys. Idk if it’s me but I cannot seem to find replacement rotors and pads for my 2019 RST.  I have the larger brakes (Brembo I believe?)   I ordered front and rear rotors and pads and they were all for the smaller brake setup, which I now need to sell. 
 

can anyone point me in the right direction?

Have you tried going through a Chevy dealership parts department?

 I was not looking to replace with OEM. I’d like some slotted rotors and better pads if possible.

What I'm saying is, if the Brembo brakes are offered through GM then they'll have a part number and you could buy from them that way.

 

As for "better" pads, I've always been a fan of Wagner Thermoquiet pads.  These can be found at O'Reilly's, and other popular auto parts stores.  For some vehicles they make severe duty Thermoquiets.  The difference is whether or not you do a lot of towing.  Thermoquiet pads are ceramic.  I then usually find some decent slotted and drilled rotors on ebay.  I did look for slotted and drilled rotors on ebay, and I found them.  I also looked at RockAuto.com and found them under the rotor and pad package subgroup.  I went 2 for 2.  If I found some that easily then you should be able to also.

The kits you saw on Rockauto all say for Silverado LD which is not the bigger 6 piston brake kit or they say Base which is the smaller base model brakes which I unfortunately have an entire front and rear setup for.

fyi - For the money, I'd rather spend that amount for all 4 wheels. Wilwood and Aero are a couple options vs. Brembo.

    • Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.  
    • The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.  
    • Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
    • I can't believe that could possibly be the case. It should be 36mo/100k miles from installation. Then again, it also seems like since a dealership installed it, it'd all be in the system and you wouldn't need to worry about registering, either. Shows you what I know. 😄 Hope this one outlives the warranty!
