Hi all,

Had my 2011 Civic Type R from new and absolutely loved it. Put it in for the 40K service today and was told I need new rotors on the rear as well as new rear brake pads. The rotors especially were surprising as I've only done 32K and I rarely brake hard - I'm pretty smooth with using the gears and going lightly on the brakes the majority of the time.

When have others had this done out of interest?

Also last service (30K one) was done about 15 months ago and car has done 15K since then. I was told they were 60% on back and 50% on front. Now this service, rear pads need replacing and fronts down to 30%. This all sounds a bit wrong???!

The dealership here Southside Honda is widely regarded as the best in Brisbane and has won awards years running as best dealership Aus wide so I wouldn't expect them to do anything shady.


Thanks
Andrew
