XF Sportbrake Brake Pads

[Quayman]

Hi, What can anyone tell me about sportbrake brake pads? My car has only done around 15k miles, the brake pad warning light has recently come on, I understand they do this when around 40% of the friction material has worn away?

what about replaceing the pads using pads with no sensors? The car is regularly serviced so I don't forsee a problem?

Thanks for the input ! I think I'll spring clean the wheels too while I've got them off the car

Looks like someone with oodles of spare time ! Certainly puts mine to shame (for now !)

thanks again, Barry.

Try EBC Red to front & Yellow to rear. If need disc's Brembo are a good option..Your need a rear calliper tool.
