see how theres the 2 reservoirs. 1 for front, other for rear. If the pistons are damaged or the wall inside the valve is screwed. Your brake fluid will by pass and basically be screwed.

I always change my brakes myself... save tons of money doing it that way. But I can understand when people are afraid to do it themselves.. since it is such an important part of the car.

It\'s almost scary how easy it is to change out brake pads. All I need is 2 hours and my trusty C-clamp

as for your question on how often to change them depends on how you drive. Some people drive with both feet (homos) and need them changed more often. As soon as they start squeaking you better change them fast.. cause when the grinding starts you\'ll need new rotors too (don\'t get them turned... I always get new ones when the grooves get noticable). Brakes should last you at least 1-2 years.

It costs 55 dollers AUD to get them turned here, 65-70 for brand new rotors. I said 10 more not 10 dollers for rotors.
