What is the average lifespan of the OEM pads (front and back)? I know it varies depending on individual driving patterns, but does anyone know a range?

Thanks,
Peter.

 

and does anyone know how?:p

 

1)take car to dealership
2)demand replacement of pads
3)present middle finger
4)leave dealership doing a burnout with loaner RSX-S

 

I kept hearing screeching sound from the front brakes... and when I did a 30K mile major tune up last saturday. My front had 2mm left and rear was 6mm left. The dealer recommended the front brake pads be replaced. So I did.

 

when your car doesnt stop while applying the brakes

 

When u start hearing screeching that tells you that you need to replace your brakes. It tells you in the manual that the car is equiped with the "feature" that it will sreech when you need your brakes replaced.

 

I got my front replaced when I had 14K miles by the dealer. It was FREE so I am not complaining.

 

I got mine replaced when I was 18K for free!!

 

Okay, so how did you guys hook that up? Were they wearing out prematurely? Do you know when the cutoff is (as in at what mileage they stop giving out free pads)?

Peter.

 

I took my car to the dealer for service the other day and told them my steering wheel shakes when I step on the brake. That's it.

They replace front brake pads and re-surfaced the both front rotors.

 

i've got 55k and i think i need em now
