Smile Got the front brakes done today

Replaced with Akebono brake pads. DiscoMike, you were right... what a difference!!
Don't know what the PO did, but I'm curious why the bolts on the passenger side are 14mm and drivers side are 12mm. The passenger side pads were down to about 1/16th of an inch but the drivers side were almost new and did notice they had a green color plate and a lot of brake dust. Guess the PO didn't replace in pairs.
Just have to say the Akebono brake pads are worth it. Not cheap, but worth it!

Yes. Did that when I did the 60k service.
