Had the my last free service (45K) done.

Getting the passenger side door unlock switch replaced (it was bubbling).

They found a loose bolt that was rattling around in the rear hatch/lid. Not sure where that came from.

No more free oil changes.

Brakes are at 7mm front and 6mm rear. I understand that they recommend replacing at 5mm. Anyone know how much a brake job is going to cost?

Thanks. How do you like the pads that you use?

And no, I'm not one to DIY a brake job. Maybe an oil change, but I'll pass on the brake job.

Interesting. Did they say where it came from?

From what I recall...

They said it was one of the clip-on fasteners which secures the plastic trim to the hatch. Noticed it shortly after purchasing the car, but I forgot to mention it at the 5K service. It only rattled when I closed the hatch.
