England 

to be honest, LR techies couldnt give a Censored on my old one, wouldnt even come out and look at it - just kept asking the dealer to send in measurements, and then instructing them to replace discs and pads. We all knew this wasnt the issue, just a short term fix, so good luck with thinking LR want to FIX something.

At one point the dealer had two D4's in with the same problem - both just got new discs and pads.

Not my problem now - sold that one, but LR will be in for a friggin mega storm if the brakes on the new one starts behaving like the old one did Evil or Very Mad

Nothing to report yet. I took my D4 to the dealer this morning and was given another MY15 HSE to use. The dealer realises that just changing the pads and discs for a third time since March would be pointless and thought that LR wouldn't accept that either.

Time will tell, but if the discs warp again, I believe I'd have a strong case for rejecting the vehicle.

Never had this problem on any of my other Disco's.

They just pass the cost of the brake replacement on to the manufacturer. Cheaper than RCA Banging Head
