Do you really need to change your brakes?
Sitting at the dealers and i am just too lazy to do the oil change myself. So after they are done they tell me that my brakes need to be change. I ask them how they check for that and they told me that they have to pull off the wheel. So i ask him, how do you pull off my wheels w/ out the key? He said, Hummmmmm..... I will make a note of that.
I think they just want money for this. If you hear this, i say get another opion or if you know what to look for, check it for yourself. Not going to waist money when i checked it myself and looks more then half on their

Infiniti tried it on me as well. The first time I ever went in, they said my brakes were just about finished. Even though they were brand new and I had my mechanic confirm this. The second time I went in there for the brake judder TSB, when they actually had reason to take off my wheels, they gave me the real specs of my brakes and told me what my real mechanic already had, that they had a lot of miles left on them. So anytime I get asked to purchase a service from Infinit, I always either check the forums, or ask my mechanic for a second opinion. Good thing you didn't fall in their trap though! =)

Hey Bro,
just a dealership point of view,
I just talked to one of my techs, of course if they are standard wheels, we have the locks, if you left the lock in the trunk, they would use your key, there's no charge for a break check of course,
and a tech just showed me, with a car on the rack, using flash light and mirror, you can see the pads and thier thickness, not saying that's what this dealership did, just saying that's what we would do

$38? That it? Ok, nm... but at that price, I'd be more concerned about what kind of oil they are using. Either way, low prices is just another way they bring people in to try to rip them off or make more money off of them. That tactic is used by shops all over.

just wondering.. i mean, you do work at the dealership that doesn't use OEM coolant, right? I would hate to goto your dealership for service.. IMO..
