Does anyone have a feel for pricing of new front brake pads and rotors on an RS7 and how long they should last?

Front rotors are $604.50 to $750 each: https://genuineaudiparts.com/parts/2015/Audi/RS7/Base/?siteid=214407&vehicleid=418086&section=BRAKES&group=BRAKE%20COMPONENTS&subgroup=FRONT%20BRAKES

Front pads are $439.27 to $545.00 a set & Rear pads are $100.75 to $125.00 a set: https://genuineaudiparts.com/parts/2015/Audi/RS7/Base?siteid=214407&vehicleid=418086&section=BRAKES&group=BRAKE%20COMPONENTS

Rear rotors are $531.96 to $660 each: https://genuineaudiparts.com/parts/2015/Audi/RS7/Base/?siteid=214407&vehicleid=418086&section=BRAKES&group=BRAKE%20COMPONENTS&subgroup=REAR%20BRAKES

That's $3490 list for the OEM wave rotors & OEM pads.

You can buy parts online and di it yourself or have an independant shop do it.

Brake lifetime depends on how hard the car & brakes are driven.

I typically got around 30k-34k miles on my previous Audi and AMG Mercedes.

The $10k Audi Ceramic brakes may be cost effective considering the alternative three brake updates in 100k miles.

At my last dealer visit about two months ago, they quoted me $2800 for all new pads and rotors front and rear ( the steel rotors) I'm at 24k miles and they thought I'd need them in ballpark 10k more miles

^^^^^lol I don't think you were getting what you think you were getting.

You are stuck with oem rotors unless you want to pay even more for aftermarket. There are no cheaper than oem options for the RS7. The cost for the OEM pads is even more robbery.

$550 each for rear rotors
$650 each for front rotors
There are a few different pad options, I feel like people get the "red stuff" product quite a bit.
