Just had 1.6 113 proceed 20000 ml service. New pads had to be fitted £107 (ouch ). Bad winter blamed for pads seizing.
Best mpg was on 1000ml trip (59 ). Normal running 44mpg. A country mile off stated 59.7.

Im quite concerned about my brakes. Im having my 20k service next week and ive got a really bad feeling that i need new pads! was that £107 for 2 pads OR 4???

all pad come in sets so front or rear sets each set comes with 4 pads20k on a set of front pads on a ceed is not normal 40-50 easy unless its a auto and have change them at low 30 i say they been binding which would cause the low milage on the pads and the poor mpg

All depends on driving style. He might be a demon braker.

for the first 7000 miles my car was used as a demonstrator so the brakes were probably thrashed.

Could be a lot worse !!
I had C-max with EPB (electronic parking brake) it would go through pads on rear in 12k and new discs needed every 20k !!!!!

Henry would be rubbing his hands when you came into the Ford garage.

After having my service it turns out that the brakes are fine. Thank god!

Fuel consumption and brake wear are both controlled by the right foot. Edited by: deeps
