So my brake issue seems to be coming back, so this I hate, but......................
last night set timed climate, as I needed to be out early, and was forecast to be around freezing this morning.
Came out to the car to hear fans running, and windscreen being cleared, and warm (not quite toasty) cabin.
First time I had used it - bloody marvelous - this bit I love.

 Why why why
My Landmark did the same which I had enough of in the end 
My 2012 commercial has had no issues what so ever. Still don't understand what the issue was but after three sets of discs and pads in 10000miles and my local dealer telling me they wouldn't be changing them anymore it was the final straw 
Good luck

Don't know what you guys are going, 2013 D4 heavy towing across Europe, just passed 50K miles in a year, new tyres last week Duratek ( that was 50K on factory Goodyear M+S) and new front pads no new discs rear pads needed in about 10K.

I think it may have something to do with how well the handbrake is set up rather than a problem with calipers. Mine has done 74k and still on original front discs second pads. D4

so another set of front discs and pads - recon everything else is fine, tracking, suspension, calipers.
wonder if I should make another booking at dealers for about 2 months time? Is is that me just being a bit cynical?
