Technical Break pad replacement

[lizzy64]

How much should I expect to pay for replacement of front brake pads on my 06 Panda ? I have been quoted £120 by the local Fiat dealer.

That's WAY over the top! I can't find the link now, on laptop and the mouse doesn't want to play but I know somebody reckoned around £40 tops - half an hours work at most. Try shopping around - if you're out of warranty then the last place to go is the main dealers.......

cheers grey, yep, the pads themselves are very cheap, like the link says shop4parts do them on discount for forum members, and you'll find it very easy to change them over yourself

Thank You. I thought it was a bit steep !

Try some local small independent garages ( tell us what area your in and no doubt someone will be able to point you in the right direction)

be very careful some of the larger national fast fit chains can be on the expensive side too and often find "work" that needs doing.....
