Then the next thing I knew, they called my Mum (who has the car at the moment - I live about 150 miles away) and said they'd replaced the discs too and the total was �170 - the work has already been done. Mum is going to pick the car up tomorrow and pay - she hates kicking up a fuss about this sort of thing. Is there anything I can do?
How did you (or your Mom) know that it needed pads? Had the garage inspected the car and told you that? If so, why did they not check the condition of the discs at the same time? Did they contact you Mother before fitting the new discs, to let her know that the job was going to be more that double? Sounds fishy to me.
