Mini Cooper SD brakes only last 10,000 miles
Discussion
Hi all
The OH’s Mini Cooper SD 5 door is 12 months old and on 14k miles and already needs new rear brake pads. The front pads are fine, as are the tyres which are the original set. It’s a motorway car so there should be very little wear.
Our local mini dealer has advised rear pads should only last c.10k miles on the new minis.
This sounds like a load of rubbish to me, and believe perhaps the car is faulty. Has anyone else had to replace their mini brakes this soon? Or have they lasted much much longer?
Thanks
