How long are the brake pads supposed to last?

My warning light just came on at 10.8K. Also... How much brakepad is left? Do I NEED to get the pads replaced immediately, or can I wait a few days?

My car will be getting its third set of front pads this weekend. The car now has 25K. 25/3 = 8.3K miles per set of front rotors.:rofl: :bigpimp:

The rear pads and rotor still got plenty of lives in them, that's what you get for never driving with DSC on.:thumbup: :bigpimp:
