How long does it take for a mechanic to change your brake pads on a 1996 nissan maxima?

From time of getting into the car, to doing all 4, properly (not the 15 min version from the other guy, hate to ride in his car), and then car parked back outside. Labor rate could be 1-2 hours. All depends on how bad they are, if bolts are seized up, if things won't come apart due to age, etc.



No job is set in stone as there are too many factors that can happen.How long does it take for a mechanic to change your brake pads on a 1996 nissan maxima?it really doesnt even take that long, with all the tools they have it should take like 15- 20 minutes

The longest part IMHO is jacking the car up and putting it on stands. And yes, when I do my brakes, I always change the pads AND the rotors.



As far as a %26quot;certified mechanic,%26quot; it's usually done in about 2 hours depending on their mood. If it took them 35 minutes you'll be charged an hour's worth of labor. I noticed that even though these %26quot;certified mechanics%26quot; are trained to observe what the service manual says (torque specs) they don't follow it. They use air tools that ridiculously overtorque the bolts.How long does it take for a mechanic to change your brake pads on a 1996 nissan maxima?15 mins, give and take..How long does it take for a mechanic to change your brake pads on a 1996 nissan maxima?15-20 min but that's only a brake change no rotors involved
