I asked abut this for mine...I can't remember now but there was a significant flaw in the deal...something about regular checks, some things like discs weren't covered and you can bet your arse that they would need changing every time along with who knows what else.
I ended up buying the discs and pads from ECP for less than halfords wanted for the pads alone...ok they are the squeaky ones pagid or whatever but they are ok..
As others have said most do so few miles they never need to change pads again, and even then forget when it is in the garage the next time..
It's a gimmic.
My pads have now done 30k and look brand new..
Rears were cheap and they are sitting in the garage ready to go on when I can be bothered. :lol:
