Hi - coming up to 33k miles and have a service imminent, interested to know at what mileage discs and pads are getting replaced and what the dealers are charging ? Thanks in advance

probably quite a lot longer on in life, i gather some tesla's are still on their original pads 200k miles in, due to the regen braking. Obviously it's not so extreme on the i8 but even so....

i3 discs seem to corrode before they will wear out. They get used so very little, as it is a town car and has very strong regen.
