  1. Hi Andrew245, Thanks for your reply, I forgot to mention in my original post that the pads I have all round are Brembos as well. The braking power is very good overall no matter the weather and does pull your shoulders forward as you say 🙂, but the discs have still got the rust on the inner area as per the photos. I haven’t taken it back to the garage yet as I wanted to see if the pads would wear down and get rid of it. I’m no expert with this as you can probably tell! Would you suggest changing the pads? Ecomatt my apologies for the lack of reply to your post, I don’t believe the brake fluid has been changed, it is a 66 plate and only had 12700 miles on it when I bought it in July 2019. It’s done just over 25500 now...I don’t know if age or mileage makes a difference? Regards Nick
  2. Hi, Thanks for your replies, Ecomatt I’m not sure if they greased the sliding pins or not - could this make a difference in your opinion? Regards
  3. Hi all, Just looking for some advice please guys, I had my discs and pads replaced on my VRS by my local garage about 4 weeks ago with Brembos all round. I’d say I’ve done roughly 600 miles since and although no problems experienced with braking, in fact they are incredibly sharp and responsive, I have noticed that 3 out of the 4 brake pads do not appear to be connecting with the inside area of the disc leaving a rust circle round the hubs. It didn’t do this before they were replaced. Please see photos so you can see what I mean... I’ve been back to the same garage who have advised me to return in 2-3 weeks when the pads have had more time/mileage to bed in. If they are still the same then the plan is to strip them down and see what is going on. Has anybody encountered anything like this before with discs/pads? Is it normal? Any advice would be much appreciated. Cheers
