Default Just had 1B service- and wow

I have put 22k KM's on my 06 and have 90 % front brakes left, and 95% rear pads left.
If this keeps going, I won't have to change my brakes until, well, jeeze, I may not have this car long enough. Love how regen saves on brake pads. I wonder what costs savings are had just from that alone.

Cool.

I'm looking forward to finding out my percentages.
I almost never use my brakes.

Need fewer troops to support.
Drive a hybrid.
Best tank 71.65 MPG.

Before this car I spent two years learning hypermiling on my 2004 HCH1.

In the US version the rear brakes are Drum and not Disc so it would be Rear Shoes instead of Rear Pads.

I was worried that my over-use of engaging the AutoStop and using the Regen Braking would have worn them down more than usual. I just had the 1B service also (I think it was 1B - 4th oil change at 35,000 miles) but they said the brakes were fine. Sa-weet.

.

--> Averaged 685 miles/week and 49.0 mpg in first year (35.7k miles from Aug 7, 2006 to Aug 7, 2007)
