Sad evolution of braking systems. At least people should check if it is required before doing brakes on their newer cars. Not so new either with the correction posted.

Brake work is a large component of car service today. Unfortunatly the commercial shops are really overcharging to pay their bills. Doing it yourself enables lower costs for the parts usually as well. For the same quality of parts.

Everyone has to make a living. I have no issue with that. At the same time some garage bills seem to go well beyond that.

Fortunately there are plenty of videos on how to do them properly yourself. It is not rocket science. At the same time not all the detail items are intuitive.
