brake padd question
I went to do my brakes today, after pulling off both the front and rear wheels discovered they do not need doing, I am the 4th owner, car has about 54.3 k miles on it, been hearing a sqweeking intermintenatly from the brakes but both the front and rear have at least half of the pad left. My question is about how many miles between bake shoes are people getting I do not track my car.
Thanks

I changed mine at 45k miles and they were completely done; in fact down to the wear markers. Like you, no track use and my braking is average for an A4
