Re: Brakes (03 sonata)
WOWOOWOWW Move to Vegas, we have some new places here called " Brakes Only "
They do nothing but brakes and do all 4 wheels including Pads ( or shoes )
and turn all 4 rotors or drums all for $99.00 !!!
I would never take my car to a place like that but doesnt it seem that about
the only major differance should be the labor ?? as you can buy a set of
really good pads almost anyplace for under $20.00

Re: Brakes (03 sonata)
I was in a similar situation just today. My car is Sonata’03 bought in
June’03-34,000 miles. I drive mainly in Boston. The grinding sound is
from the break pad being completely worn off. It happened on my rear
break. The cost to replace-repair varies 425-1000$. The first price
estimate includes: resurfacing front roters, new front break pads,
replacing back roters, new rear break pads and labor (done by huyndai
dealer). Second price (at a local auro mechanics place) included front
roters, back roters, break pads front and back, rear calipers (dont
know what that is) and labor. I checked and it is not covered under
the warranty since it is a wear of the car. Good luck

Re: Brakes (03 sonata)
I was in a similar situation just today. My car is Sonata’03 bought in
June’03-34,000 miles. I drive mainly in Boston. The grinding sound is
from the break pad being completely worn off. It happened on my rear
break. The cost to replace-repair varies 425-1000$. The first price
estimate includes: resurfacing front roters, new front break pads,
replacing back roters, new rear break pads and labor (done by huyndai
dealer). Second price (at a local auro mechanics place) included front
roters, back roters, break pads front and back, rear calipers (dont
know what that is) and labor. I checked and it is not covered under
the warranty since it is a wear of the car. Good luck

Re: Re: Brakes (03 sonata)
Yes regularly pads are about 20-30$ a piece. The way Sonata works is
that you can only replace the front pads (the dealer can resurface the
front roters). The back you have to replace roters as well. If you
catch the wear on time then it is not that expensive
