MAHLE Aftermarket Inc. recently unveiled a new microsite to provide automotive service shops with a resource to educate vehicle owners on the importance of having qualified technicians inspect and service their air-conditioning systems annually.

Consumers benefit from their air-conditioning systems functioning properly not only to enhance cabin comfort, but also to avoid damage that may be costly to repair. A well-maintained air-conditioning system also is critical to ensure the proper temperature range for drivetrain batteries in electric and hybrid cars.

In addition to a comprehensive checklist for proper A/C maintenance, service and installation, the MAHLE

features a multitude of useful resources including articles, easy-to-follow tutorials and industry statistics, as well as background on some of the company’s latest solutions, including premium MAHLE cabin air filters and the MAHLE OzonePRO professional sanitation system.

“Shop owners can direct consumers to the ‘A/C check’ microsite for information about yearly service of their air conditioning system from a qualified auto technician,” said Ted Hughes, director of marketing MAHLE Aftermarket North America. “The site was also created to provide vehicle owners with information about the design and operation of the automotive air conditioning system, why regular maintenance is necessary to ensure its reliability, and details on do-it-yourself inspection and service guidelines.”

The “A/C check” microsite also includes detailed information about some of the latest technologies from MAHLE, including the company’s expanded range of cabin air filters, as well as the MAHLE OzonePRO professional sanitation system. This innovative technology uses ozone gas to sterilize a vehicle’s interior and eliminate odors. In addition to its lightweight and automated operation that controls ozone levels and process time, it offers digital integration with mobile devices and report generation when the sanitation process is complete.

From a small test workshop to one of the top 20 automotive suppliers, MAHLE is proud to celebrate 100 years of delivering superior quality products around the world. For more information about MAHLE Aftermarket and its brands, visit

      The differences and options between OEM brake pads and aftermarket brake pads
      By roybrakepad
      1. Price
      OEM brake pads: One of the most significant drawbacks of Toyota OEM brake pads is their higher cost compared to aftermarket alternatives. Since OEM brake pads are produced by Toyota or its authorized suppliers and sold through dealerships, they often carry a premium price tag. This can make repairs and maintenance more expensive, especially for older vehicles or non-critical components.

      Aftermarket brake pads：aftermarket brake pads are often more affordable than OEM brake pads. This can result in significant savings, especially for repairs and replacements that are not covered by warranty or for older vehicles.





      2.Quality
      OEM brake pads： Toyota OEM brake pads are engineered to meet stringent quality standards. They are tested for durability, performance, and safety, ensuring they function seamlessly with your vehicle.

      Aftermarket brake pads：The quality of aftermarket brake pads can vary significantly between manufacturers. While some aftermarket brake pads meet or exceed OEM standards, others may be poorly made or less reliable.

      3.Adaptability
      OEM brake pads: Since OEM brake pads are designed specifically for Toyota vehicles, you can expect them to fit perfectly without any modifications or compatibility issues. This precise fit helps maintain the original performance and integrity of your vehicle. Availability of OEM brake pads can sometimes be limited, particularly for older or less common Toyota models. Dealerships typically stock common parts, but less frequently used components may need to be ordered, which could result in longer wait times for repairs.

      Aftermarket brake pads：aftermarket brake pads may not always fit as precisely as OEM brake pads. This can lead to compatibility issues, performance problems, or even damage to your vehicle if the parts do not meet the correct specifications.

      4.Variety and Customization
      OEM brake pads: OEM brake pads are designed to match the original specifications of Toyota vehicles, which means there may be limited options for customization or upgrading certain aspects of your vehicle beyond what Toyota offers. aftermarket brake pads often provide more variety in terms of features, designs, and performance enhancements.

      Aftermarket brake pads：aftermarket brake pads come in a vast array of styles, designs, and performance levels. This variety allows for greater customization and enhancement of your vehicle, whether you’re looking for aesthetic upgrades or performance improvements.

      5. Performance issues
      OEM brake pads: OEM brake pads maintain consistency in terms of design and performance, as they are produced to the same specifications as the original parts installed in your Toyota.This means that if you want to upgrade your vehicle for higher vehicle performance, OEM brake pads are not available. Options to upgrade certain aspects of your vehicle may be limited.

      Aftermarket brake pads：Some aftermarket brake pads are designed to offer better performance than OEM components. For example, aftermarket brake pads or exhaust systems may provide improved stopping power or enhanced sound.Some aftermarket brake pads incorporate the latest technologies or materials that might not be available in OEM brake pads, potentially offering better performance or durability.

      6.Convenience
      OEM brake pads：Purchasing OEM brake pads typically requires visiting a Toyota dealership or authorized parts supplier. This dependency may be inconvenient for some consumers who prefer the flexibility of sourcing parts from various suppliers or online retailers.

      Aftermarket brake pads：aftermarket brake pads are widely available through various retailers, online stores, and auto parts shops. This broader availability can make it easier to find parts quickly and may offer more convenient purchasing options.

      7.Warranty Issues
      OEM brake pads:Strict Warranty Requirements. While using Toyota OEM brake pads can help maintain warranty coverage for your vehicle, there are often strict requirements regarding the installation and use of these parts. Failure to adhere to these guidelines could potentially void warranty protection in some cases.

      Aftermarket brake padsotential Impact on Warranty: Using aftermarket brake pads might affect your vehicle’s warranty, particularly if they are not approved by the manufacturer. It’s essential to check warranty terms to ensure that aftermarket brake pads do not void your coverage.
