6.Front Brake Pad Replacement
Previous owner of the car had changed the brake pads at 94,000kms in 2017. This has been done at the agent and back then they've charged Rs.16,580/- for the pad set and Rs.1,443/- as labour.
After almost 60,000 kms (58,900kms to be exact) I decided to change the brake pads as they were worn out pretty bad and I had a trip planned to visit Nuwara Eliya. Got it done last Friday at Unit#d Mot#rs - Orugodawatte.
The prices are as follows,
Brake Pads - Rs.18,810/64
Labour,Lathe & Vat - Rs.4,444/64
So the prices of parts have increased about Rs.2,200/- and Labour about Rs.600/- for three years.
They recommended to replace two caliper pins and brake shims soon as they've worn out. Gonna talk to my mechanic about it later.
Found out that lower arm bushes are kaput and arm links too needs to be replaced.
My tires barely has thread. Needs to replace them as well. f**k me side ways!!!!
