Alright, the VX was making a horrible schreeching noise. I took it to the dealer to check it out and they tell me that the right rear caliper threw a pad. This let the piston push itself into the rotor. And here's what they want to fix and how much.
- Rear-
- Calipers $120 a piece (replace both sides)
- Rotors - $150 a peice
- Pads- $72
- Lube and such- $28
- Labor - $288
- Brake flush - $79
- Total- $1009
And they said I have about 3mm on the front and the rotors can't be resurfaced (I might want to check this out myself) So they want to redo the front brakes along with repacking the bearings (I was going to do this anyway)
- Front-
- Rotors- $100 each
- Pads -$72
- Lube -$26
- Bearing seal set -$28
- Bearing repack and labor -$259
- Total -$585
So my question is:
Do I need all this? (i obviously need some of the rear stuff)
Can I do this myself? (i am mechanically inclined)
Are their prices inline with what you guys have experieced?
