How much should I expect to pay for new front disks and pads. |

There are many variants of most cars, so Citroen Synergie may not be
suffiecient information to say, but pads are about £20 and discs about
£30.

According to my local MOT station, my front disks will need replacing before next year's test. |
If they need doing, they need doing because they need doing, NOT just to
get you through the bloody MOT.
The MOT is a bare minimum, not a target highpoint.

that they would need probably need attention before the next MOT. I'm not
going to go crawling about the brakes anymore than I have to so rather than
wait until the disks are worn to the point of *need*, I'll tackle the job
now.

disks listed. What's the easiest way of determining which are the right
ones? Another (probably exceedingly stupid question), are disks priced per
pair or each (not that I would consider replacing just one).

The pads seems fairly straightforward but there seem to be three different disks listed. What's the easiest way of determining which are the right ones? Another (probably exceedingly stupid question), are disks priced per pair or each (not that I would consider replacing just one). |
