Hi there, my friend just bought his Vios to change his brake pad (Genuine Toyota Brake Pad) and the workshop charged my friend a total sum of RM 220 including labor.

Is this a fair price? hmm.gif

Also is Vios brake very complicated? It takes the worksman 1 hour to change a brake pad.

Thanks for the input. How much cheaper can we go?
Also how long does it really take to change the brake pad for front side for an efficient and skilled man? hmm.gif

I don't know much about Vios, I feel that my friend kena parang already. I'm advising him to go for OEM brakes instead since they're pretty much about the same. Also, I couldn't believe it takes an hour to change brake pad for Vios because it only takes less than 10 minutes on my Kelisa. My friend says Vios is different because of the existence of ABS.. hmm.gif
