Tourer Front Brake Disks and Pads

[hypnotist]

Hi all

I've just been quoted £250, fully fitted, for a set of front disks and pads. Is this excessive?

Cheers

It's not ridiculous I don't think, maybe a bit overpriced but I ***ume that's a Honda dealer? I think parts are around £150.

Local Honda dealer, using honda parts. I've never had them changed before so i'm just checking.

That price is the Honda Happiness fixed price.

EBC just as good and much much cheaper, an easy diy

I do disagree iv had EBC in the past and don't rate them to OEM.
But that's my opinion

I had this done 2 weeks ago, quoted £250 by local Honda dealer, same by a small Honda specialist using OEM or £180 using non-OEM. Got another garage to price match the £180 and do a wheel balance for free. Sadly, cash is king at the moment. Not sure what brand the set are but so far so good although still bedding in after 2 weeks.

It's more than I'd want to pay. It's a fairly easy task that could be done by any garage (or avarage DIYer) using widely available parts... why do you want to have it done at a dealer?
