About 60 - 70 000 kms for the front pads, brake dics should be renewed with every second pad change.

Just curious how long you guys are getting on your front and rear brakes. I was on pace (according to i-drive) to have both sets changed about 25,000 (front) and 30,000 (rear). Then, about 6 months or so ago, I got my first software upgrade (20.02) and the brake numbers haven't changed since. I have 30,000 miles on the car and i-drive says 10,000 more to go on the front and 15,000 more to go on the rear. I'm only concerned because the numbers are not going down on miles till service for those two items. I figured I would get one set during covered maintainence, but now I am not so sure.
How long have yours lasted?
