I am trying to ignore my misfire code and hope it will go away, so I delved into the brakes and rotors today.
Problems ensued...(details follow)
-Could NOT get rotor to separate from hub. I applied lots of sea foam penetrant spray and did a lot of pounding, but no luck.
-Have one caliper piston that will not compress back into it's cylinder.
-That was just the one wheel and three hours, so I put it back together for another day.
One thing I noticed is that the heat shields (just guessing on the name) on the inboard pistons were rotted away. Are these necessary? I haven't seen them on any LR parts sites.
Thanks,

I am a Land Rover owner for two months now, is it going to be like this forever?
