At the last service my mechanic let me know that the discs and pads will need replacing at the next service, around the 60K mark. Since I didnt own the car for the first 35K, I dont know how it was driven then but assume allot of Melbourne city driving. My old diesel Pug lasted around 140K but that was with 2 years of highway driving. Pads and discs done there too. Mechanic says is typical of the euro cars.
Your doing well with your discs Mike. Lets hope I can emulate those figures when I get onto the new set.
BTW, quoted 730 for complete brake change (which is only 100 more than parts from UK, not including shipping) so seems very reasonable.
Are there any better pad options available or are the Bendix HD pads the best?
cheers
