I've never had a set of pagid pads that didn't squeal like banshees, so avoid them whenever possible.
I think I will just order from Dan if I can't find a good indy down here in Cornwall with original parts in stock.

I never compromise on safety related elements like brakes and tyres, and always source OE ones, even though mates tell me I'm stupid because they are twice the price

I just wouldn't trust halfrauds special offer brakes to safely stop a 3 tonne FF

My family (and their safety) is my main concern, everything else is secondary. Some people just don't get that.

You also have to remember that, no matter what age your FF is, when it was new it was a high end luxury vehicle and LR reflected that in the quality (in most cases) of the various components they sourced, and tested on the vehicle.

Think of it this way......a vehicle manufacturer has to design, manufacture and test new vehicles with no possible comebacks on safety. Compare that with an after market manufacturer of brake pads. They can say they are OE equivalent but they won't have tested them exhaustively on the vehicle and certainly won't entertain any liability if you have an accident because you couldn't stop in time. "Quelle surprise".

Haha, nowt wrong with a sensible rant, I agree with you on all that.

OE parts are always preferable but sometimes the cheaper option might be ok and that advice ,whether the make is ok, can be found on this forum... ... - .- -.

Thanks Stan, hope you are OK.

Managed to get a look at my calipers and they say range rover on them not Brembo.
Were the Brembos badged as range rover? What do other people's calipers say?
Mine is 60 plate and v5 states it's a Jan 2011 car.
Thanks for any clarification any one can give.

Cheers
Pete
