Chad is offering the OEM pads at a steal. you will not find them cheaper. I went with the Hawk HPS pads. They are amazing. 1/20 the amount of dust compared to the OEM pads.

Chad offers the Hawks on his site as well. Also the cheapest you will find them

Oh cool, thanks. I just came back from the stealership. The reason this whole thing came up was the fact my break, VDC, and SLIP lights came on 3-4 times at cold temps in the morning in the past week. I took it to them, they said that its low break pads causing low break fluid and hence the lights. They said that if I realy want them to check it out, they will charge me ~105$ since they have to take the wheels off, etc. They are so sure that the low break pads are the cause that they will not do anything without the f-ing service charge.

My car is still under the warranty and so I said they should look to see what other cause there could be. I also asked to talk to the manager, which the dude said he is the f-ing manager for the day. He did offer to have a mechanic measure the pads without taking off the tires (which they should have done to begin with), and after doing that, he confirmed that I had low front and med-low back pads. And get this, they quoted me $500 per axel for the pads, not including rotors.

So, first of all, Infiniti has forever lost my business. I will no longer take my car to them for any sort of service / oil change. I will no longer buy any cars from them, and I will do my best to tell everyone to be aware of they s$%ty attitude towards their customers. Second, I will replace the pads myself (well, order it on-line and have someone replace it.) I still can't believe that they refuse to check my car out to see if the lights could be caused by other causes... I also can't believe the dude's attitute, saying "I refuse to check your car out without the fee", eventhough my car is within warranty...


Anyways, sorry for the long post, just venting. I'll try to narrow my choices down for the pads and possibly rotors. Having the car that's only 27k miles though, I hope I shouldnt have to also replace the rotors. Maybe I just get the front pads, and then do the rear ones when they get lower.

So my top choices are either to say with brembo pads, or project MU (not sure which sub-type), or hawks. I think I can pay max ~100$ per axil for the pads, plus labor, so hopefully that hsould be good.

Thanks.
