Hello, would appreciate advice...got the Rotex Gold pads. I was originally told by dealer a fairly reasonable cost for the labor. I am now being told $150 for front, $150 for rear, to replace brake pads and grind rotors...am now at 16K miles. Questions that I have...

1. Is it necessary to grind the rotors, if they are otherwise fine?

2. Is this a reasonable price for just labor, around $300? Its at a dealership...or can a brake place do it as well, and if so, any recommendations. (And FYI, I absolutely refuse to go to Pep Boys based on previous experience with other cars).

Thanks.
