Had the 4 year/60,000 klm service today - only travelled 32477klms and was advised the rear brake pads were down to approx 3mm and were needing replacement PLUS the Rotors also = WTF.
I get the rear bias put on by VW will wear the pads quicker but was advised the rotors have a "soft" metal and as such they wear also, can't be machined on the vehicle so VW provide the rotors & pads as a set - fitted $802.00
.
Looking @ possibly OEM rotors by BCP and Bendix pads for $230.00 and get a mechanic to fit as may save a few hundred $$ and possiblt get better longevity from aussie maade rotors.
Anyone had similar issue with their T-ROC or offer comments.
