In getting two new tyres today, while the wheels were off tyre fitter told me i should be thinking about getting new pads and he showed me what was left to go on them.

Point of the question is how many mile would you expect to get on a set of pads , as i have recently only done about 6500 mile since i was charged by a local dealership last june to supply and fit new pads and disc's , beginning to think the f.uckers were at the madame at the dealership

the way you drive mick i think you're lucky to get that..  ... - .- -.

Bought my car in June 2009 with about 4000 on the front brakes and new rears. I've done about 14000 including doing my best to 'endo' the car on a few occasions and a lot of "spirited" driving and they are looking mostly spent now.

Have been wondering how life mine have left, despite having the discs pads and shoes done last year at massive expense.

If it's just pads I'd love to be able to do it myself for once but I always find the tools I've got are not quite up t it, like a weak-ass trolley jack etc.

Plus, I just don't have the time I used to, once upon a time I'd wash our two cars and do the insides too EVERY weekend, now it's lucky to get a wash every 2 months.
