Hi guys and girls, I have brake issues, had new discs and pads fitted 6 weeks ago, noticed two bands of rust on both sides identical patterns, they are three quarters of an inch two on each disc , these ar brand new and good make of parts, braking is it and miss, any ideas, thanks.

Which model of Range Rover?
 
just to had brake pressure ok been checked, no oil leak under pressure, pedal sometimes travels, not getting hot, new fluid, only done 117 miles since being fitted.
 
Hi

if the brake pedal travels it could be air in the system , also if they've allowed air to enter the abs section it then needs diagnostics for the abs bleed process

or possibly servo , but if it was fine before does sound like air

ref the rust , wonder if the pads aren’t touching ur disc evenly

personally as it’s ur brakes and you’ve just had them done I would take it back

Thks, sorry no pic

does the pedal travel to the floor or a lot lower than before and does it brake as it should or worse than before the new discs and pads were fitted

what make if pads and discs were fitted plse

lastly , when u start the engine does the brake pedal sink

just trying to establish a few things if that’s ok

Thks
 
Hi Stuart, the pedal is it and miss sometimes most of the time its firm out the blue it travels, it's not getting hot, been back garage it's been on diagnosis coming back ok, was blead through diagnostic, all good, I'm not getting through that before this work was done everything was ok, needed new disc and pads for mot, now brakes are it and miss.
 
Will need bedding in to achieve full contact.
If you're not happy just take it back to the garage.

that's the problem I have been asked to pay for new pads and they will fit free of charge, both disc are showing same where pattern, so I don't know if it's disc or pads, do I demand full brake replacement?

wonder if they’ve disturbed the vacuum lines , have they checked vacuum pump is pulling a vacuum.

also every 6 x years the brake hoses should be replaced

know when I replaced my fluid it was a sod to get the air out

It might be best if there not prepared to fix it to take it to another garage and then give them the bill , seeing its ur brakes and of course have to be 100%
