I recently had an 8 year service on my turbo s.
At the same time I had a mot which it passed with no advisories.
The car has around 32k miles on it and it seems as if it's been pretty well loved in past ownership.
Anyway, the technician said I have about 9mm left if the brake pads. He then went in to say that he's never had to change a set of ceramics. I accept it could be that he's not been doing the job for long or that he just hasn't seen many turbos.
I was toying with the idea of selling the car, I put it out to a couple of people and one buyer (I won't name them but they are often named in here as decent people to trade with and I have dealt with them before) said, we have a policy if not buying cars with ceramic brakes.
Now I'm paranoid😳
I could have bothered to tell them what I'd just been told at the Porsche dealership but it didn't seem worth it as I don't need to sell to them.
Is 9mm plenty and average for a 32k car?
