Brake Calipers Discoloration

Anyone else have this on there's. it's only on the larger calipers on the 5ltr supercharge.
Complained to Yeovil last year about it and they said they would deal with it but never. Guess it was my fault too for never chasing them on it. Censored
Anyway this year Yeovil told me I had to phone customer services myself.
Well got a answer yesterday afternoon saying that the Calipers were not faulty and there is nothing they can do Censored
So has anyone else had this problem and got Land Rover to change them?
Yes I know I can get them painted but just want to know has it happened anywhere and is it a fault?
Cheers

I had mine changed under warrentee when the car was less than a year old. It was blamed on wheel cleaner which odly enough was the dealer's valeters as they were the only people that washed the car as it was in garage so often. Since then they have lasted five years and as good as day they were fitted. The same callipers are fitted to TDV8 and supercharged. 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀
TDV8 Sport HSE...... Gone. Loved it but it didn't love me!!

I think Wokkaman had his calipers replaced under warranty for the same reason. 5.0L supercharged.

Beancounter you of little faith. Liam rang me this afternoon. I only PM him last night. He might not be able to do anything but he will try. He does keep an eye on forum and is always there when asked, he tells me. Thumbs Up MY11 Autobiography supercharged. Santorini Black. Monaco interior. Rear screens. Privacy.

Well what a waist of time getting in contact with Customer services. Censored Dealt with a girl called Jodie Collins! Have no words to describe her! Not sure what happened to Liam. What a shame just felt let down by them!
Anyway better shut up before I make a plonker of myself. Whistle

So no joy then Sad

Really does seem to be a lot of disparity with LR customer Services Confused
Some recent threads on here with LRCS getting involved and sorting out issues, but then not willing to listen to others, like yours. ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

Can't figure LRCS. When you ring them up they make you feel they are listening but when they get your address wrong (Jodie) and then phone you back and tell you there hands are tied it puts you right off. I know it's not a big complaint (could be blown engine) but WTF!
Just got my planning permission turned down as well so waiting for third thing now. Guess rant over.

From my extensive experience of dealing with customer relations, it seems to be who you deal with. There were a couple of top guys but they were too good to answer phones and were shifted elsewhere. For the last year all my dealings have been with executive office. 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀
