Est. Repair Cost: £15,000–£25,000 (full set)
Warning Signs:

Visual pitting or scoring on disc surface, Brake wear warning light, Reduced braking performance, Vibration under braking

What to Inspect:
  • Inspect disc surfaces through the wheel spokes for pitting
  • Check pad thickness
  • Ask for brake life percentage from a diagnostic scan
  • Verify whether the car has steel or ceramic brakes
