Hi everyone,
Just looking for a bit of feedback:
I've got a 99 Jetta TDI with 37K (mostly city) miles, and was told that I needed new brake pads and rotors for all four tires (the rear brakes being totally gone, the front about to go very soon). VW dealership quoted me a total of about $900-$950 USD, which I knew off the bat was a ripoff. I took the car to a local auto repair shop my friend recommended to me, and had the brake job done for $600 USD, with OEM parts. I was told that that front cost $340 to do, and the rear about $260--had the job been broken up as such--since front brakes are beefier. My question is, was this a reasonable price to pay someone for a four-wheel brake pad and rotor job? Any feedback/opinions are much appreciated. Thanks.
