Hi,
Went to the MOT the other day and they did not bother about the headlight adjustment (see above), but found that the front brake pads were about gone. It is only a little less than 30000 km (18000 miles) since I last changed them, and I mostly drive long distance at a rather moderate pace, i.e. I am not hard on the brakes. Is this a normal figure for the 205? Car I had before went 70000 km with one set of brake pads, was a Ford Escort. Brake function is normal, as far as I can judge, and the techs didn't mention anything else about the brakes. Could it be that a fault in wheel tracking causes the wear? Since the tracking was way out of normal, and tires were worn on the outer side (had that fixed BEFORE the MOT).
Cheers,
Norman
