OMFG

Just got a call from Pep Boys, they said all the brake rotors on my car (I have 4-wheel disc brakes) are all under specification (meaning they're too small for the car), and have to be replaced, and that there's so much wear on the rear brakes, that the discs themselves are millimeters away from making contact with the shoes (apparently, this is very bad).

Soooooo...in conjunction with the tune-up and the oil change, I'm looking at...

$600.00 I'm spending on the car today! *Mr. Frownie*
