New Brakes

Post by Savoy »

At 82,500 miles it is finally time for new brakes. The rear drums were just fine. Just thought you would like to know.-Savoy-

thanks for the heads up. Did you do it yourself or have someone else do it? How did the front rotors hold up, where they scarred/grooved much?

The rotors had the normal wear grooves. I didn't have them machined or anything...just the pads replaced. I had it done at Midas.-Savoy-
