Default Rear Brakes 2003 1.8T

My rear brakes are shot ... and I am sure the rotors are as well. How much do these parts cost? For the stock stuff?

Thanks,
Larissa

Approximately $50-60 for rotors and another $15-20 for pads (basic stuff). If you plan to keep the car, you should think about upgrading to a nicer set of rotors (slotted/drilled) and pads. You will need the caliper tool for installation. Great how-to on this site that I used replacing mine:

Yeah ... for now this is just basic stuff. Cannot afford anything better right now. Wish I could. Lots of stuff would be done.

I am going to a trusted shop for the work. They repair classic Porsches (from the ground up), Audi, VW ... and some Honda crap (basic oil changes mostly). They are great.

Good thing this isn't going to cost more than $250. It would kill me.
