Desperately need new brakes for my 2010 Clubman S!!!
Can someone please help? I don't want OEM MINI replacement parts as I don't want to be replacing my brakes every 16 months. I'm at roughly 32k miles right now on the car and the European warranty does NOT cover routing maintenance, only parts faults.
I've got about 600kms (about 375 miles) left on the brakes, and when I swapped on my new summer wheels yesterday it was obvious that my brakes need replacing. I've picked up a set of used 13" Stoptechs for the front (but need to verify that they'll fit) but have nothing for the rears. It seems that Clubman brakes are different, and that in 2010 there was some other change to the brakes so most vendors don't seem to have anything other than normal rotors/pads. Has anyone gone out of warranty yet and needed brakes yet? I imagine I'm one of the first with this issue because of the age of the car and my driving habits.
I'd prefer to upgrade, but don't think I need to spend $1k on rear brakes. Just some nice aftermarket rotors (preferably slotted, drilled, etc) and some good low-dust pads is what I'd like to find.
