Hi All,

I got my 2017 F-Type R with 17,500 miles on it. CPO, brand new brakes/rotors had just been put on.

I'm now at 34,000 miles. I'm hoping my brakes will be good for another 5-7k miles?

Thoughts?

If I recall, when I had my 2017 F-Type S, I only changed the brakes 1 time in 45,000 miles

***BRAKE - Thread Title haha

 

The car has brake wear sensors so it will tell you when they are worn.
If you don't want to ruin the wear sensors then change the pads before the warning comes on.

There is no set time or mileage as it's totally dependent on many different things? I have had pads worn out in 20K miles and I have had them last 90K miles.
Usually I am fighting brake dust so they are changed before they are worn out.

Shouldn't a mechanic be able to see the wear on a brake/pad during a annual safety inspection? If so, they can give advisement if the brake needs maintenance or not.

 

I changed my brakes at 65K miles. The wear sensors tripped before then, so the brakes were close to shot.
