My discs are looking a little sad and I`m getting fed up with the brake squeal so decided I`m going to replace all discs and pads.

For anyone interested the ebay £159 set I mentioned above come with All Makes discs which sounded more like no makes than anything else.

The ebay £159 set are Mintex parts. Never really liked Mintex, have an unreasonable aversion to them.

The guys got some later model discs at £65 a pair. Can pm his eBay user name if anyone is interested. No connection other than a happy customer. |

Hopefully getting the pump done tomorrow It took just over 4 hours to do, but this was using a trolley jack and axle stands and about 1.5hrs of that was spent getting the seized caliper pins out! So a garage with a ramp will hopefully be significantly less SDV8 AB MY 2019 SDV8 VSE MY 2015 - Gone 5.0 S/C AB MY 2010 - Gone 4.2 S/C VSE MY 2006 - Gone |

Don't have that problem with the earlier, much better built, FF's, they didn't have a pin set up to hold the pads in...
