Brake pads

Postby Gazman2054 » Mon Sep 04, 2006 7:06 am

Morning all,
My cars going in at the end of the week and she needs some pads.
Would you stick with the standed ones or change them :?:
The standed ones managed 28,000 miles...

definitely not driving her hard enough mate :wink:

get ferodos - slightly cheaper than standard and far better IMO, bit squeeky on light braking at slow speeds, but much better than standard :D

trouble was when i went for my 20k service, they took them out and they were f*cked,
so while they had everything off was a lot easier to put new ones in at that time, plus got them cheaper as well :wink:
plus no labour if i had to put the old ones back in, then come back for them to put new ones in :lol:

Thats why im finding out now so i can buy them.
So all they have to do is fit them.
If i get them mail order they will be here before the car go's in...

We dont have a dealer they went bust a year ago!
This is why we have so many probs getting the car serviced.
Nearest dealer is 40 odd miles away!
Jordans who we use, used to have the subaru dealership but there a right bunch of ripping off bast*rds.
I use them for the services as they still have a subaru guy that works there.
But im going to use my local garage for the brake pads as i get on with the guys really well and they may be able to get the pads cheaper that i can
