mmm, wonder if Jurid sell to alternative suppliers - the price of TDV8 4.4 front pads at just under £200 is an absolute Ripoff ! |

I'm confused as to the difference between JLR, "Brembo Spec" & [genuine] Brembo made by Jurid.

Thanks. Just spoke to a very helpful chap at autopost.limited and he says the above front and rear set are correct for the car as advertised and are -as Duckworths referred to about their own pads - "Brembo branded" pads which he says are as good as you will get and will not cause any squeal or any other problems. |

Read the wiki re disc/pad change thanks and also found an American youtube video of a front disc/pad change (RSW Solutions).

Just do a search and find out if anyone else sells Brembo branded pads? Ive never seen them before... I would imagine if they were sold in glossy red Brembo boxes (as advertised in their eBay ad) they would be for sale in that fashion everywhere... Smell a rat Stinks of Chinese counterfeit goods to me...

I agree , i think they are copies ( not the later [post with pics but the earlier post showing pads at £29.99 ) , i asked them a question and the response was well frankly rubbish would not risk anything like that its the same as fitting Chinese copy wheels and crying when your 2.7 tonne £xxxx car hits the barrier from a collapsed rim or worse. Far to many gone... |

I fitted EBC Red Stuff pads all round and they have been brilliant, stronger performance than stnadard and not as much brake dust, no squeeling either Stolen / Gone: 2006MY Supercharged LPG Autobiography - Zambezi Silver with Sand/Jet/Jet Oxford Leather..... |

Define "Non Genuine" I have a set of EBC RedStuff Pads in my D3 (with Brembo's) and cannot fault them at all... I admit, there are some shocking pads out there, but IMHO, you get what you pay for. Buy cheap, buy twice |
