    And the cost was coming anyway, so would have had to pay most of it soon anyway. So the only difference really is OEM vs after market.

    It was the first time I was happy to see slow cars on the black spur

    Surprisingly I still court up rolling through the corners and not using the brakes.

    yep just had the call it is the rotors and pads.
    Traffic was atrocious on the way back with some good going snails

    Bummer with the rotors and pads...the crystal balls at the dealers surely needs recalibration

    Doesn't smell right to me. I'm 44xxxk. I wouldn't think I'm in need of a rotor change anytime soon. Was there any fault found?

    No fault as far as I know. Just that the rotor did not have enough on to machine.

    But I think about right, my car does a lot of short trips, in a round the back streets and all that just puts stress on the car and brakes.
