I have either made a genius or disastrous move here. I began to get a bit of light brake effort high speed shimmy through the steering wheel which typically means the rotors are getting some runout on them. They are Zimmerman's and about 2 years old so I hope they are salvageable (may turn them).
Anyhow I had some RaybestoView attachment 9335 View attachment 9335 View attachment 9335 View attachment 9336 View attachment 9337 View attachment 9336 s Professional rotors that I pulled almost immediately after a bit of use due to high high runout numbers. Anyhow the plan is to resurface these and swap them in for the Zimmermans.
I thought I would start with fresh pads. While cruising Rock auto I see the OE Fedoros are no longer available (replaced by some Euro enviro friendly pad at twice the price). I then spot some Brembo Premium Ceramics. for $36. Wow. I know Brembo pads have been hit or miss in the past but I took a flyer. Well they arrived and I am quite surprised.
- Great fancy looking box (typically I get a squished damaged ratty box with brake pads.
- each set of pads are wrapped in Brembo imprinted cloth towels.
-full set of hardware and
The pads have the proper weights installed. Awesome. All this for $36. They look good at least lol.
FYI there is a VIN break on the brakes for 2010 LR4s. The difference in the early vin vs later vin is the latter pads are 1mm less thick. Land Rover must have had install problems at the factory which was solved by making the pads thinner.
