So I’m coming up on 120k on My FR-S and I’ll need new brakes soon, they’re starting to squeak a little. Previous owner had brakes done once before but what I’m wondering is, what typically needs to be replaced? Just the pads? Rotors too? Or can you not tell unless you’re in there looking? I just always like to know what I’ll need before taking the car in. Thanks for any advice.
pads, rotors, noise reduction shims, anti-rattle clips, and caliper slide pin boots. Most shops won’t reuse old rotors; they either replace or machine them. Slapping new pads on old rotors generates noise comebacks.
