Ivor Ramsden Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 This isn't MV related but I just had to share it. This guy complained that his Discovery's brakes weren't very good. The disc was so worn that a piston had popped out. This is what happens when you don't have an MoT test... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Rangie Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 :wow: Worst i've seen was a rear pad in a discovery, it had turned in the worn caliper and was cutting its way through the disc, "the brakes are making a noise at the back" :shocked: Alec.

0 Lauren Child Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 (edited) It could be worse, I've seen two vehicles on other forums (thanks to friends who are into classic cars) where the owner has added bling by painting the brake discs. I see from google that you can now get special paint to do that, this wasn't. Edited March 21, 2012 by Lauren Child Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 MiketheBike Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Impressive is probably not quite the right word, but surprising the disk did not just fold up!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Tony B Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Recycle it as razor blades, not much work required. Must show that to Tom, he was whinging cause I made him change the discs the other day on his Discovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
