Oakey46: Even if your car is still under warranty you still don't have to do the brakes with the dealer. I would also change the pads and the rotors as some mechanics recommend doing this. I did some research and found the pads and rotors for about $700 Canadian which is about £350 for front and back and there are 2 sensors that you require, one for the front brakes and one and one for the back brakes. They cost about $50 Can for both. Labour should be about $100 for one hour per corner max which would be $400 max at an independant garage. Should be about the same in the UK or about £400 too although I don't know the hourly rate in the UK. For Clive, I would just replace the pads. You can go with the Akenobo pads, I hear they're available at a good price and again use an independant garage. One important note: An independent garage may charge less to change the rotors and pads than £400 too.
