Front Discs...

Fed up with front discs that warp with in months of putting them on. Is this a trait of the FFR ?

Never happened to me in 15 years of various FFRR. Only ever fitted Gen LR parts. Are the discs Gen LR or OE? 2013 L405 AB 4.4SDV8 Luxor/Ivory, 2007 Vogue TDV8 Epson Green/Sand, 2008 Vogue TDV8 Buckingham Blue/Sand, 2003 Vogue 4.4 LPG Epsom Green/Sage, 1998 Vogue SE 4.6 LPG Epsom Green/Cream

Had a variety on the two FFR's I've owned... with the constant warping, I am reluctant to shell out LR money just to see them gone in a few months.

Check brake calliper bolts - I went through a couple of sets before I realised the thread in the brake calliper was threaded and bolts weren’t holding calliper tight.

Like CMJ I have never experienced this on a RR, and always use LR discs. I'm not aware of genuine discs having a reputation for warping. Only Range Rovers since 1988

I know how cheap the non-gen brake related components are but I'd never sell them because it would be more hassle than its worth.

Always stick with Genuine LR or a decent OE brand like Delphi You can paypal direct using - www.paypal.me/duckworthparts

I use genuine (Brembo) brake components on mine, after the aftermarket items fitted before I bought it warped, chucked dust everywhere, and squealed horrendously.

Not had a problem since.

What ever brake disc you use, you will spoil them if your brake caliber's piston has rust on it.
With new disc new pads are normally installed.
This will cause the piston to go all in during installation. Rust causes piston to drag and this causes brake disc to distort.
