1. How much lining does the fresh pad have?
2. I think 4mm is still a lot left? Am I wrong?
3. I drive like a grandma and I never really track my car, is 25K miles too early?
Slide through NY, I'll do it for $2,500 and I'll change the fluid too! This reminds me of my friends mom (78) who paid $200 for an oil change because the facility convinced her it is a more difficult job on a Cayman.
