I had to have all pads done + front disks recently

I banged them down on price - if you need to know what I paid then let me know. The SDs have updated brakes.

Ps surely when they sold you the car the i-drive screen was stating less than the 4k miles that they refer to if you have only done 3.5k so the time period should be irrelevant!?

Good point, however, technically it would have said more than 4000 at the time of purchase, as there is another 700 miles in them according to the iDrive and I have done just over 3500......

Do not want to be doing discs yet, fancy a big brake kit upgrade when that needs to be done.

Avtar, with everything that has gone on in the past I would be spitting nails at the dealer :headbang: they clearly are taking the p1$$ Stan firm and fight your corner, in the shoeroom face to face if needs be.

Came to an agreement. The fronts were also going to be due soon, so did the front and rear pads, I paid for the parts they covered the labour.
