The brake pad warning light on my A3 Sportback has come on......

Where's the best place to get it checked? Audi service centres charge £99 for just two (either front or back) brake pads!!

    Any decent local garage should be able to sort it for you.

    Any garage can do this for you, phone around for some quotes

    The pads should cost about £35 per pair

    put the correct PAD code into ebay or google to get an idea on price (of pads only) - don't worry about the wrong car make/model being shown, VAG use the same pads on different models/makes

    I don't think you'll get it done for less than £70 all in.
