| 2007 Camry Brake Pads and Machined Rotors Labor Only!! |

| I purchased front & rear ceramic brake pads for my 2007 Camry for $100. I took it to local auto repair shop for installation and machining the rotors. I haven't gotten new brakes/pads before so I didn't know what would be the labor cost, but after reading above posts I think $150 is very reasonable. |

I originally took the car in to a Mazda dealership to get the brakes checked - they quoted $497.85 to replace the front brake pads and rotors, 140 to flush out and change the brake fluid, and 28 for tire rotation for a total of 665.85.
When I called Pep Boys they quoted 69.99 for the hydraulic brake flush and 213.97 for all the parts and labor with free tire rotation - the total with tax was 313.89, then I found a coupon on their website for 10% off. VERY happy to have saved $375, it pays to compare :) I just wish I'd seen the coupon sooner since Pep Boys offered free brake inspection too, and the dealer charged $55 just to tell me what was wrong w/the car! |

| Bought 4 new drilled and slotted rotors locally for $200. Bought front and rear "Satisfied" ceramic brake pads online from Amazon.com for $100. I had the synthetic grease, brake tools and bleeding equipment and a gallon of brake fluid. Installation very straightforward and easy with the exception of having to take a 2" x 2" and tapping the back of each frozen rear rotor to pop them off. Drained and replaced all the old brake fluid with new fluid. |

| Semi metallic front pads and rear shoes, plus new drum spring kit for $56 through Amazon.com for $56. I already had the synthetic grease, brake tools, brake bleeder, cotter pins and a gallon of brake fluid. The rotors and drums were in excellent shape (no ridges or deep scratches) so I just scuffed with emory paper. Drained and replaced brake fluid and repacked wheel bearings while I was at it. |

Considering I'm not a huge fan of car repair prices, I went to Goodyear and was quoted $900. A tune up alone was $550 for my car which was just replacing plugs. Are you serious? I went by other places and got better prices. I went with Pep Boys because I've never had a problem with any of their repairs.
Rear brakes - $161.97
Tune up - $146.99
Synthetic oil change - $54.19
Warranty - $21.47
Additional labor time - $69.00
Tax = $39.11 |

| I can't believe how expensive it is!! Unfortunately I didn't have much choice in mechanics and I needed it done quickly. Some day I need to learn how to do this myself. $550 is way too much money! |

| Good price, fast service. I thought this was a very low and good price. The technician listened to my complaint about vibration at speed, and stuck his hands through the wheels, felt the rotors and said the replacement would solve my problem. They did a great job, and were very professional |

This is serious.! now after reading this i didnt even think it was possible to get ripped off this bad! I (SERIOUSLY) paid 52$ +FREE SHIPPING for 2 BRAND NEW rotors and 4 pads of redline brakes GOOD BRAND off EBAY and put them on myself and its great i honestly didnt think people paid this much for brake work. I have a Mits Eclipse and using redline brakes is great when i go to the strip..I stop on a dime! well goodluck. either way order these brakes and have a shop do them for you if you dont want to it will save you money!
PS my father drove semi truck for 10 years only with REDLINE brakes and never had any problems. |
