What brakes should cost on a BMW X1

Job, per axleParts (DIY)At a shop
Pads only$30-60$150-300
Pads and rotors$100-180$300-600

Pads alone are $30 to $60 per axle as parts, or $150 to $300 per axle at a shop. Once the rotors go too, it is $100 to $180 in parts or $300 to $600 fitted. That jump is the reason to replace pads before they are down to the backing plate - worn-out pads score the rotors, and the rotors are most of the bill.
