It's not a big job but the dealers will charge you £300 - any garage can fit them for 1/2 the price. Get the pads and sensor from a dealer for about £80. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

Ran out of time to do both sets but did manage to do the Brembo's with no problem in fact very easy i did take some pics so i will do a little write up soon although its really as simple as removing the pins in the caliper and taking out old pads but if people want to see it up close i will sort it out soon. |
