Just had my first MOT on my Audi RSQ3 which came with a free vehicle inspection. Report came back saying the pads were 80% worn and that I needed new front pads and discs (wavy disc design). Cost to supply and fit £1,150.
The car has done 20,000 miles mostly gentle (ish) driving with no track days so was a little surprised to hear new discs were required. Anyway being very distrustful of Audi dealers I had them checked out independently and surprise surprise discs were nowhere near required. New pads fitted £145 all in - saving of £1,000 if I had just accepted the dealers recommendation and booked in in through Audi.
Makes the cost of changing the discs and pads on my Boxster S seem very reasonable.
