Considering OP started a thread complaining about how the brakes on this car are the worst because of an inability to inspect them without removing the calipers, I’m surprised that you helped as much as you did.
I get that it’s inconvenient to do brake inspections if you have to remove stuff, but that’s the whole point of routine inspections at a dealer. You pay them to take stuff apart to inspect, same with decent mechanics. Some people just think “DIY” = cutting as many corners as possible. |

Last question.
Is it worth getting Centric PQ Pro? They have some red abrasive layer? They are like a few bucks more, so basically the same price. CENTRIC 50011240 PQ PRO; w/Shims and Hardware Info Rear; 292mm Front Disc; Vented Rear Disc $31.89 CENTRIC 50015390 PQ PRO; w/Shims and Hardware Info Front $35.79 |

I know checking your brakes are hard, but is Googling something hard too?

It's like Googling about what oil to use. @Tristor knows his stuff, so I will ask him directly. |
