Car Fu

[callistotoni]

My car was in the shop for its regular check-up and oil change (205K+ miles), and it turns out I need new breaks. The message(the mechanic called my home number) said that it was going to be "expensive" (NFI). I will get the details when I call him tomorrow morning, but it doesn't look good.

No car means no barn. Blah.

It could be more than just the brake pads. I know that if the pads get way down there, sometimes damage can be done to other parts of the brake units. And with a car that has 205K miles on it, it may just be general wear and tear and the whole brake units need replacing. That would not be cheap.
