I might have to check into those pads, but I do drive it alot and I'd hit 20,000k miles in a year or so...

How much do they cost? Anyboy tried to replace the pads themselves? How hard was it? I've enver worked onbrakes before, but it can't be too hard...
Raybestos ceramic pads were about $70 delivered - www.PartsAmerica.Com.
I did mine myself - quite easy. Jack up, wheel off, remove caliper bolts. Push/lever on pads (SLOWLY) to push pistons back a little, pull caliper off disk. Take out old pads. Take large C-clamp and push pistons in (SLOWLY). Put in new pads, re-assemble.
