Expected price to pay for a brake job?

Kopanski · 02-27-2018, 10:18 AM

My warranty ran out, and all I have is extended (does not cover any maintenance). What should I expect to pay to do my brakes? It's just rear pads it looks like. I'm close by to some great shops (M-spec performance, tyrolsport), is there any reason I should go to a dealer?

I'm changing ALL of my brakes most likely next week. I can squeeze in time to do it for you on the 13th or 14th??

Press and hold the trip reset button while the car is on but not running. Click through till you get to the option you want to reset and you hold again.

Whatcha ended up paying to do the rear brakes? What did they end up doing?
Dealer or Indie?

Rear brakes are simple. Two bolts for the caliper and one Allen screw for the hold down on each side. Swap to a new sensor and all done in 30 minutes a side. Reset via the dash and done.
