Description
Swapping Out Your Brake Pads — The TRW Way
> Brake pads are what stops that Land Rover Range Rover Sport or Discovery of yours. They clamp down on the rotors, so when they're worn, you're not stopping like you should, and you could be chewing up your rotors too.
What Clued You In?
• Brakes sound like a flock of seagulls (squealing)
• Braking feels weak as, like trying to stop with marshmallows
• Takes way too long to pull up at the lights
• The steering wheel's doing the Macarena when you brake
• Pads are thinner than a cafe lunch ham and cheese
WOF Woes?
Dodgy brakes are a surefire way to fail your WOF here in NZ. Those pads need enough meat on them to pull you up safely. Best to give them a regular once-over, eh?
DIY or Hand It Over?
How Hard? 6/10
How Long? 2-4 hours (give or take, depending on your mojo)
Gear You'll Need: Jack and stands, spanners, sockets, brake cleaner (crucial!), brake pad spreader, torque wrench
🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
• Safety First, Mates! Never, ever get under a car that's only held up by a jack. Use proper stands; your life's worth it. And chuck on some Safety Glasses to keep the brake dust out of your eyes.
• Cleanliness is King: Brake dust is nasty stuff. Grab some Nitrile Gloves to keep your hands clean, and have a can of Brake Cleaner handy to blast away the grime.
• Protection Prevents Problems: A bit of anti-seize on the caliper bolts will make life easier next time around.
• Lube It Up (Where Needed): Use a smear of proper caliper grease on the pad contact points to keep things smooth and quiet.
Expert's Two Cents

🛠️ Bob's Pro Tip: Do the Job Right!
> If you're swapping out these parts on your vehicle Range Rover, don't skimp on fresh rotors. Check out our compatible TRW Disc Brake Rotors (Part No. DF2791S) to ensure a perfect bed-in and get the job done properly first time!
🧰 What Else You'll Need:
• Safety First: Never work under a vehicle supported only by a jack. Always secure it on heavy-duty safety jack stands.
• Brake Dust Protection: Brakes get incredibly dirty. Keep a pack of Nitrile Gloves handy to protect your hands from stubborn brake dust.
• Clean and Prep: Use a high-quality Brake Cleaner spray to blast away stubborn dust, oil, and road grime from the caliper assembly and new rotors before reassembly.
• Lubrication: Apply a thin smear of high-temperature caliper grease to the pad backing plates and slide pins (keep it off the pad friction material!) to prevent squeals and ensure smooth caliper operation.
