Is the grind a hard metal grind, like the pads are down to metal, or perhaps are you hearing the ABS actuator working, which would explain why you are feeling the action in the brake pedal. Typcially the front brakes on these Pathfinders usually last 60000 miles or more and the rears 70000 miles or better.
That said, to answer your question: I would recommend you check out Rockauto.com. You might get a better deal on parts than from Advance Auto. Wager rotors are good and so are their Thermoquiet ceramic pads. My personal preferance is Akebono Pro ACT ceramic pads or Raybestos Professional Series Advanced Technology pads. Akebono has been a long-time, OEM supplier of brakes to Nissan; their pads are as good as original equipment if not better and they come with new hardware and lube. I have their pads on two Pathfinders and have been very happy with them. I have Wagner rotors on the front of one and Raybestos Professional Series Advanced Technology rotors on the front of the other; both still have the original rear rotors on them with over 135,000 miles on them.
205.22 after shipping. Which will vary depending on where you live, in my case shipping is 38 dollars. May sound like a lot but the local stores want about 120 dollars more asking for over 300 dollars for rotors and pads all the way around (napa, Conway, advanced) didn't try pep boys figured they would be about the same as the other three. So far the rocks gottem all beatdisallow wrote:how much?
