Which front brake disc?

Hi,

Along with plenty of others, I have wheel judder under braking. Looking at changing the front discs, plenty of comments regarding quality of OEM discs, so considering Brembo.

Just wanted to confirm what size discs for a 2011 D4, CA597xxx.

The TSB for wheel judder states SDB000624, but these are 19"? Sounds way too big?

Thanks, David.

D4 discs are SDB000624 Thumbs Up

I have not yet found a decent quality aftermarket disc for these, so I only fit genuine discs Thumbs Up

thanks for the reply Mikey Thumbs Up

Do you have a recommendation for the pads? I can find various alleged genuine Landrover pads but huge variation in price, up to £130+?

I'm actually not overly confident that changing the discs will cure my problem, as I have noticed, at very low speeds, <10mph, a very slight 'knock' when I go over something like a drain cover, and also the same pulling away from being stationery - but it is very very slight and does not do it over bigger bumps such as potholes, but I do wonder whether the brake judder is actually suspension related.

You know these trucks inside out - I'm changing the discs as it's a relatively easy thing to do and it might sort me out - but am I really barking up the wrong tree?

I had a wobble through the steering when braking...

After 4 sets of brake discs, new wheel bearings, new calipers, it was down to worn lower arms bushes (which were not knocking at the time, but did start knocking after approx 1 year after the wobble first started)

That's interesting, and makes perfect sense now Thumbs Up
I get a wobble on occasion and haven't been able to work out how it can just come and go if warped discs or a pad/calliper problem, but lower arms makes a lot of sense. I can just feel the start of a knock when dabbing the brakes at low speed and am expecting to change the lower arms later in the year.
