    Question Brake life – 26-02-2007,09:05 PM
    My Pst is going for 2nd MOT on Wed. I have covered 49k without replacing any of the brakes, just wondered what the "norm" is for brakes?

    id say after 49k, they're probably about ready for a change id say LOL, if you can speak to teutonic tamer, hell be able to advise you more techinically, but for safteys sake, id probably have them done... if their not safe youll get failed on your MOT.

    How long does a packet of biscuits last?
    Of course if 49,000 was on motorways and it's a manual, they may be half worn. Mine lasted 30,000 on the front.
