I have a 2020 Jetta with 54k miles, breaks squeak now and dealership wanted $2100 to change all four brakes pads and rotors.

In the past with my older Honda civic (2004) I would just take it to a local DYI mechanic I know and buy the parts myself. This car has electronic parking and he didn’t want to mess with it.

No clue how much this is supposed to cost tbh

    That’s a “I don’t want to do it price” You can buy a OBD11 scan tool for $65 to retract the parking brake and a front and rear rotor and pad set from FCPEuro for $350.

      Are the calipers phenolic tho? Because phenolic are not supposed to be reused. Which means at minimum the caliper pistons/o-rings etc need to replaced also.
