If you know where to source for your original brake pads, you can get it all done up for less than $50. Brake pads plus installation..

[Mercuri]

Wow... <$50 for original brake pad + labour?

If you are driving Koreans like me, you can try some stockies along Race course road there. Our brake pads are there. As for installation of them, depends on how well you know the workshop. For mine I try to do it during servicing, my regularly uncle will do it for me foc, if not around $20 or less, depend on his mood

Getz is Hyundai. Try your stockist, Min Ghee at Kallang.

 

Google the net for their address and contact.

 

That is provided you are getting back stock brake pads. If you are looking for aftermarket ones, can try searching in the forum for more information.

 

Once you got your brake pads, you can go to any workshop to change the pads. Labour usually is 20-30 dollars.

you can try this WS at upper thomson road, at the Caltex station

 

This caltex station is between the shell and esso station, 555 upper thomson road

 

tel: 6452 5993

 

u can just call them first and ask for price first.

 

i only been there once recently to change CVT gear oil. friendly ppl and cheap price.

 

u can bring yr own stuff and they just charge labor or you just ask them for the whole package.

 

 

actually for such small things like brake pads, you just let the WS charge you for whole package.

 

if you buy from stockist and pay labor to WS, you wont save much.... probably only $20.

 

save yr time and petrol in going to stockist to buy.....

Did he accept nets or credit card for payment?

 

[Donut]

i'm quite sure they can take in NETS, but not sure about Credit cards

Just to share my recent servicing at Caltex Upper Thomson..

 

Brought my own engine oil, filter & brake pads. Total bill is $50 (15+20+15?) for doing the following items:

- Change engine oil & filter

- Change front brake pads

- Rotate tires

 

Total time taken is 30mins.. with "complimentary" check & top up water, clean air filter etc..

[Donut]

its a very good deal!!!

I bought Ferodo 4WD for Getz at Autozone, Roberts Lane for $30. Then I changed the pads myself.

It costs maybe around $10~$20 labour to change the pads.

[Enduro25]

is a shop by itself?or need to call up to order b4 u collect?

[Kb27]

Autozone is parts seller. You can walk in and buy on the spot.

You need to find your own workshop to install.
