Anyone know the original and minimum disc thickness (f and r) on a MY16 3.0 TD6 HSE dynamic ((Brembo calipers)?

Thanks in advance. MY2016 HSE D SDV6 - gone due to fuel dilution problems.

workshop manual has 'Service - limit marked on the disc' for both F and R disks.

Front disc thickness: New 34.0 mm (1.33 in)
Service limit marked on the disc
Rear disc thickness: New 25.0 mm (0.98 in)
Service limit marked on the disc
Maximum disc run out:
Front 0.050 mm with wheel fitted
Rear 0.070 mm with wheel fitted

Thanks.

I will whip off the wheels and see what is marked on the disc hubs. MY2016 HSE D SDV6 - gone due to fuel dilution problems.

Sorry wrong post  In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures
Gone - A couple of RRS, A couple of Disco's. However thinking of another Sport.

So.........

Front discs - min thickness - 31mm

Rear discs - 21mm.

My fronts measured up at 34, ( they must have been more than that when new) so lots of life yet. The rears you cannot measure without dropping the caliper off, which I didn't bother with, as the "lip" was tiny anyway.

Pads front and rear getting low, probably will need changing within 5k miles. I will try some EBC "ceramics" to see if they cut down the dust.

Anyone tried Red or Yellow stuff pads on their cars? They do both, not sure which ones to go for.

Gawd, those Brembo front calipers are huge! MY2016 HSE D SDV6 - gone due to fuel dilution problems.

Had EBC Red Stuff pads on a couple of cars (but not RRS) and found them to be a big improvement but you can sometimes get a squeal at low speeds... certainly stop you quicker! D3 LHD - great car !

22k miles of "normal" road use, I am not too hard on brakes. Lots of those miles on M-way journeys. MY2016 HSE D SDV6 - gone due to fuel dilution problems.

I'm about to buy EBC red stuff ceramics low dust variety absolute bargain if they stop all that darn brake dust grrr!!

I'll let you know how I get on with these. MY18 SCV8 Satin flux silver
Gone:
MY19 SV VELAR AUTOBIOGRAPHY firenze red
MY18 SCV8 Yulong white- perfect 👍
MY16 SDV8 SANTORINI BLACK - perfect 👌
MY64 SCV8 DARK BLUE - nightmare car
MY64 SCV8 FIRENZE RED - loads of annoying issues
MY15 SDV6 FIRENZE RED - perfect 👌
MY12 SDV6 DISCO4 IPANEMA SAND - perfect 👌
MY09 TDV6 SPORT BLUE - lots of issues

That would be really useful, I think I am a month away from fitting some max.

Reading the descriptions on the EBC site, I suspect redstuff will be what I need in preference to yellow. After all, this is a 4X4, not a Seat Cupra R. MY2016 HSE D SDV6 - gone due to fuel dilution problems.

Iv had red stuff on mine, noticed no difference at all between them and genuine brembo pads. Im fitting 6 pots this week and will go with genuine brembo pads spiteful Range Rover Sport tdv8

To combat that evil brake dust, I use Autoglym Wheel Protectant. It has worked well on our cars, and reduces brake dust buildup almost magically.

I have no affiliation with Autoglym... 2017 MY17 SDV6 SE

Olly are you saying you saw no difference in brake performance or no difference in brake dust?? MY18 SCV8 Satin flux silver
