>>they will check pad thickness with a quick glance. and nothing else
I'd love to know how much a VW Franchise would charge for a wheels off, strip out pads, grease, adjust the handbrake etc etc
3 years ago my CRV was at a Honda franchise for a service and asked for a price - £280 inc VAT. My Indie did it for 1 hour labour - inc VAT it was £55-£60 IIRC + new pads on front which was another £55 I Think. It gets once every 2 years so not this year - hopefully just a service.
Certainly cheaper to fork out for fettling rather than have sticky pistons etc necessitating disks & pads due to neglect.
