I have an 05 Turbo S and the "Brake Wear" light recently came on. The brakes are also recently very mushy like I boiled the fluid.

How long have your pads lasted? How easy/hard is it to boil the fluid?
Are there any replacement pads for PCCB other than OEM?

I don't think it is your pads unless you already have 60K+ mi on a 2005 Turbo S. I was told by the dealer it will last you at least that many miles before you need a new set. I don't thing there is an aftermarket replacement for it, I would get OEM regardles. Also the car is still under warranty, just take it in and see what is going on with it, good luck.

Take a picture like the one I attached and post it. Mine in this photo have 6000 miles on them.
