maximum motor vehicle tech can tell if the rotors are new by using finding on the hub and outdoors fringe of the rotor for quantity of rust buildup, would desire to be little or none for clean rotors. it is not simple for clean brakes to squeak, inspite of the undeniable fact that it does ensue. undesirable pad fabric and gentle rotor out of around will reason it. The squeak which you hear is unquestionably a vibration very comparable to you unbelievable a tuning fork, and that they sell compounds to placed on the pads to provide up the vibration. If the keep gave you new areas and did not techniques correcting the subject, than please don't be upset with them. they did not make the areas and that they lost time because of the fact of it too, no person wins with defective areas. wish this help you recognize and experience greater useful. playstation . they those days sell ceramic brake pads to help with the squeak situation, and of direction additional funds.

Give him at least two six-packs of beer! Seriously, the job for the rears only shouldn't be more than $ 25 or $ 30 if you had it done professionally, so if he's a true friend, I would think about $ 15 or $ 20 would suffice.

Most car dealerships will charge you $90 per hour.
Since he is neither a licenced mechanic, nor a dealership I would pay him $30+ for the favor
Good Luck!

Usually beer works. Brakes are the most important part of your car. BE sure your friend knows what he is doing, tho. You do not want them to fail. I know because it happenend to me.

If you're female and he's male, something tells me he's not interested in your money. I wouldn't worry too much about it. He's probably not expecting anything but company. It's a VERY easy job, especially if he has the right tools.

Ask your friend, "How much do I owe you for that?" Then the emphasis is on him to say a price rather than you having to guess and get it wrong....

$40. From what my brother says, it's not hard to do, but it can be a pain in the a$$ sometimes...
