Good morning, ,my 2018 hse is coming up for 4 years old and 25000 miles. Brake wear sensor is now on and disks are warped /corroded so need replacing too. Got a price for £636 from Land Rover to replace. Do I just stick with the Land Rover ones? Any advice, experience greatly appreciated.

Thanks Chris

I changed my own rear pads for about £30 to £40. Discs were ok. However LR were quoting well into the £100's for the same job, think I posted on here at the time. It's a fairly easy job so any independent should be ok to carry out. There is a procedure for backing off the electric parking brake on the rear. I would price up independent to carry out full work.

Just replaced the discs and pads all round as discs worn at 5000 miles. Land Rover discs are too expensive..ditto pads.. get Bembro or other good make at half the price.
