That sounds great. Could you send me his details?

I will try the new pads first as this symptom is just starting.

It will be the discs with the old pads. Best off getting new performance friction one's.

Extra dosh but work well with RS29. Also for rear there is no difference between OEM rear discs or AP's.

If It's brake pad deposits, sand disc wid paper to clean em up before fitting new pads.If You have aluminium bells torque the wheels to 120nm don't airgun them.then pump brake couple tims and turn wheels.If You get a scraping noise all way round Ya discs Ok but If it scrapes then quiet Ya discs May be out.try that.

One other observation i had. When i was getting a bit of judder, and i backed off i could hear a pulsating sound from what i thought was the rear. So it could be that its a rear disks that needs skimming. When disks cooled pulsating disappeared. Ill take it all to pieces this weekend and have a good look.
