Nice, thanks Tombie 👍

Even better on a manual where the EPB module reads the clutch lever position and coordinates the EBP torque with the clutch release.

Thanks for the info, that's a pretty clever system for what I thought was just a handbrake.

Just noticed this tool rental business with LR specialty items like bushing press and timing tools. Could be useful.

So sick of brake dust, so I ordered a full set of Akebono premium ceramic brake pads from Rockauto US to give them a go from the good reviews they've received on here. AUD 199 delivered front EUR1467 and Rear EUR1099 is not too bad at all imho.

Keen to hear your feedback Eric to see if it's the same as mine.

Yes, please report back. Dust is killing me, and despite being genuine, I still get the ‘warped disk’ effect of pulsing to a halt :-(

I’ve done 10,000km on the Akebono and RDA disc combination and they’ve been excellent. Pads are very rotor friendly, next to no dust and the pulsing issue I had is gone and hasn’t returned.
