Attention all G owners w/short brake life/ misc. warranty issues

I've owned an 03 coupe, 04 sedan, and 05 coupe...each one has had its share of minor issues


03 coupe -
brakes were done in less than 7k
Slight pulling to right
Misc rattles
Brake dust
Power steering fluid leak
Window regulator
Rear axle clicking x 2

04 sedan
Rear axle click
Broken suspension component
SES code that continually appears and disappears

05 coupe
Window regulator
Rear axel click

Well after all of this something exceptional has happened. Yesterday I replaced my original set of brake pads after 33,200 miles. That's right, I got 33k out of one set of brake pads...don't know how it happened but it makes up for all of the above..not to mention that I still had over 1k left on em..witnesses: seddon, jayjay3452....

I still cant believe you got 30k+ from brakes. oh yea congrats on changing the brakes yourself with a little guidance from seddon.
P.S. Starting hitting the gym so you can crack those bolts yourself, its okay though u did loosen them lol!
