When To Change Brakes
I took my 2002 Honda Civic LX in for service yesterday. The tech noted the
front brakes is at 6.9MM and the rear brakes is at 3.4MM. I'm wondering at what point should they be replaced. |
Re: When To Change Brakes
How many miles you have on them?

What did the technician recommend? It's really hard to give you an answer, because different people drive in (sometimes) radically different ways. I replaced the rear pads on my '01 Accord V6 after 89,000 kilometres of combined mileage (mostly city, though). If my Wife was to be the only driver of the car, I would have had to change them a considerable amount sooner. |

Unless you ride the brakes, it should go 50K
