S L asked:

I have a 200 BMW 323Ci (coupe). The brake sensor light indicator came on which means I need new pads at least.

BMW dealership always replaces pads AND rotors and quoted $1045(+tax) for my car.

I’m wondering if there is an auto repair shop (i.e. a national chain) that will do brakes on BMWs and doesn’t charge such an outrageous amount?

I don’t have the tools to do it myself.

Places like Meineke, Goodyear & Monro say they’ll do the work but I have to bring it in and have them look at it in person before they’ll give me even a ballpark price.

One local business quoted $800…is that reasonable?

Thanks!
