Well, I've been warned!
Below is what I'm greeted with as I turn on the ignition, start the car, and drive off.
Background story.
Got this puppy back in 2018 with 100366 km on it and fresh brakes.
Been using it mostly as my weekend and tow vehicle for most of that time, but for the last 3 months, it has become my daily driver.
Now @ 46k later, looks like I need to slap some pads and sensors into it.
Being that it's -13deg C right now outside (feels like -18deg C), I can tell you that I won't be wrenching on it any time soon.
Judging by some quick math, I expect to be able to squeeze another 10k out of them with my current use pattern, but will probably only drive "ignoring" the warning for another month or so until things warm up a little so I can have a look at it to measure the state of the components in order to determine if I'm going to do full job or just pads\sensors\hardware. This means I'll probably only drive another 2k or so before I address it.
Other than the cluster warning, there's no shake, shimmy, noise, etc. I can tell by the pedal travel that the pads are low, but the rotors still look good through the rims, etc.
