    MY10 Disco 4 SDV6 New Brake Rotors and Pads - any recommendations?

    Hi All,

    The worn pads light has come on for the front pads on my MY10 Disco 4 SDV6 so looking for recommendations or alerts which products to stay away from?

    Anyone got any good packages worth buying?

    Thanks in advance.

    it's all about your application, extra heavy duty, heavy duty or normal based on what you do, I have fitted Delios rotors and DBA XP (Xtreme Performance) pads, low dust and stop really well.

    What PeterJ says. I value off-road ability highly, so for me it's original discs and pads.

    RDA rotors and Bosch pads have been successful at a good price

    RDA slotted rotors and TRW pads work for me. The RDA pads have a black finish that stops them rusting and look great. Next set of pads I'll try Ferodo or Akebono. Stay away from Bendix 4wd heavy duty pads, unless you like really noisy brakes and mediocre stopping power.

    Pedders ceramic pads now front and back. Have been good so far. Apparently from same factory as Akebono.

    DBA slotted rotors and TRW DTEC ceramic pads all around. Great stopping power and feel.
    Bonus low/no dust which I wasn't looking for but happy with.
