I don't know if you CAN use non-Brembo pads with Brembo calipers but IMO you shouldn't. No point in having Brembo brakes but using pads that aren't upto the mark.

Thanks for the reply I will have a look at the site sponsor, I have also been looking on eBay and found a few brembo pads, what's the part number I will need?

I just fitted ferodo pads to the front of mine in brembo calipers. I could get them at the local motor factors, about £55. If they didn't fit it was much easier to exchange them. Thankfully they did fit and seem to be as good as (if not better) than the brembo. I still have the box somewhere if you want a part number. With regards the sensor there are two or three different types depending on the chassis number of your range rover so make sure and check first. It is a relatively easy job to do yourself. |

Thanks for the advice mate, if you could get the part number for me that would be really helpful, are there different kinds of sensors for the brembo set up compared to the standard set up? 2018 SVR |

Nice find mate Do you know how much they are direct from the dealer? £85 seems a bit steep for someone re selling them. 2018 SVR |

Dan (Duckworth) quoted me a forum price of 87.64 + VAT for front Brembo pads so even cheaper. I checked and mine had a good few thousand miles left on them so didn't buy. However, Ferodo should be fine especially as they seem to supply to Land Rover as well. Will PM you regarding front sensor. |

Ferodo front pads are FDB1996. The brake sensor I got from dan @ duckworths didn't have enough length on it at the tip to route correctly. It was slightly different from the one I took off. A little digging on e bay and I found two different brembo sensors depending on chassis no. Have a look on there and you will see the different sensors with part numbers.
