The dealers wanted $2,000.00 just for the rotors without pads and labor..!!!
These are even crossed drilled rotors too...!!!
I'm having Infiniti of Oakland install my rotors for $405.00 total which is about $99.99 per wheel. I think normal hour rate is $150.00 now right? Should I take it to someone else who can do reputable work for "BREMBOS"?
I have a 2004 6MT w/Brembos current mileage is 57K...For those who have the BREMBOS, when did you replace your rotors and pads and where did you have it installed?
Feedback is appreciated.
I'm bringing in my car next thursday and they're going to check out my A/C unit for A/C Kompressor problem...Anyone get a whininig noise or hissing noise when the a/c is running? It's covered under warranty...thinking about getting extended warranty soon...!!!

changing out the rotors and a pretty easy and straight forward job to do. let me know if you need help.
and if i was going to buy an extended warranty, where would i go to buy it and how much further is the warranty extended?
