    As if I needed any more convincing that LR are really taking the Censored with their parts prices. A set of OEM rear brake pads are over £130...that's almost double the price of a set of genuine Brembo, Delphi or Ferodo pads at £70 Laughing

    Picked the Bling Barge up off the boat this evening...it's been annoying with it being stuck over in Kirkwall for a whole week for the MOT, I had to borrow my son's BMW x3 to get around... Shocked

    I deliberately wore my old Land Rover baseball cap every time I drove it in case the other locals thought it was mine. Laughing

    Rolling with laughter

    Next on the list of to-do stuff. I ordered a full set of Ferodo pads so I can do a decent brake service when they arrive. I'll power bleed the system as well to flush the old fluid out and replace it since I noticed when I checked it with the brake fluid tester, the current fluid is just below borderline % for hydroscopic absorbtion. Thumbs Up

    I need to do all the usual swop outs too but at the minute I’m still trying to find time to fix the d3

    I normally wouldn't fuss with the brake service right now since my pads are all about 2.5mm or there abouts...but that one advisory... 'Service brake binding but not excessively Nearside Rear'... did my nut in...I'm kinda OCD about always having clean MOT's Laughing
