Brake Rotor/Pad cost

[scomac]

Hi Guys
Just had the rear rotors and pads done on the 2010 D4 at a cost of $650.
Seems reasonable to me but thought I would ask what others have paid for a comparison.
Cheers

If that's genuine, I would be super happy with forking out $650.

I have only done 80k and not yet due for a change.

Thanks Brett, pads are LR but discs are EBC, I've used them on my race car, and have always performed well. Price included sensors as well, labour was $260. The D4's done 87k, SWMBO is hard on the brakes and the go pedal for that matter.
Cheers.

Seem pretty good deal to me!! My partners Audi Q5 at 140kms is due for first set of pads and rotors all around from genuine Audi is $2300 fitted and for Bendix from my local mechanic is $1400 which seems okay i know a totally different car but just some idea.

I paid about $530 for mine but that was just machining the rotors, not replacing them. Labour was about the same and the machining was $90, so pretty similar.

If you think your wife is hard on the brakes, I had mine done at 52k so I don't know what you'd think of me .

Cheers,
Jon

Just getting mine done this week and have been quoted $650 - 700, same LR pads and AM discs

Getting mine done on Tuesday at Barbagallo but I'm supplying the pads. There's a full set of Akebonos in the back waiting to be installed.

Driving down from Kal tomorrow - I'll let you know what the damage is.

I picked up a set of front pads from repco a couple of days ago-$105. They mentioned front rotors around $300

I need to do all four with both pads and rotors. I've been quoted around $500.00 for parts only (non genuine of course) and $1000.00 supply and fitted (assuming non genuine) by a local independent. Whilst I think $1000.00 is reasonable, I'll be buying the parts and doing it myself (with the help of Bodsys Brake Bible)

Hi BMKal
Have you used the Akebono pads before ?
I heard they are supposed to reduce the Dust considerably.

Can you let us know how they go ?
