Discovery 3 rear brake pads |
|
Hi all.
The rear pads need changing on my 2005 D3. Should I go oem land rover as I'd heard they had been redesigned to stop that squeaking noise when starting to wear.
If so any idea on the part number and best place to purchase?
Much appreciate your input. Also any comments on disc replacement would be good as they may also need changing.
Cheers.
Andy

If your swapping discs - consider the V8 upgrade....well worth it BREXIT - done properly.

You need minimum of 18" wheels for the v8 brakes
Well worth doing if you plan on changing discs anyway D3 57 xs Stornaway grey

thks alan
did wonder if my wheels were going to be too small
will replace them with the oem vented discs
see a lot of reports in not fitting drilled , slotted discs due to them collecting dirt , stones etc
