With both my '93 and '95 Daks, I had to get the pads and rotors replaced
when they reached around 20,000 km. The '93 was a year old and the '95,
close to two years old. What I found out (not from the dealer) was the
factory pads and rotors are pretty much crap. Very low quality. Once I got
Speedy to change them on the '95, who knows how much longer they would have
gone had it not been put to rest after only 30,000 km. Which reminds me,
I've got pictures of the wreck, but our scanner seems to be flakey. Soooo, I
have to get these scanned somehow so they can be posted (as well as the new
'98 of course).
