Cayenne S needs brakes ... Help?

Is it absolutely nessessary to repace the rotors at the same time?
Also where can I buy the OEM parts cheap? Dealer charges alot for the parts and install, I would rather go somewhere cheaper.

No you do not have to change them. When I took my pads out the rotor was a smooth as ever, I have some drilled rotors ready but not until the next change of pads. You will need a set of sensors though as they break when you pull out the pads.

How about it? I have taken mine in complaining of squeaking and that the pedal is low. They say that I need new pads and possibly rotors at my expense. Its a 2004 with 23K on it. Doesnt seem right to me.

I drive mine pretty hard......I guess. I think it will make it a few thousand more miles and then I will upgrade.
