Where would you recommend Mark? I used to use Henry Bros, but since they have been taken over by Douglas Park I have had nothing but arguements with them over my own issues and the GF's Mini. They are t****s!!

How do you know it needs discs + pads? Lights on?

My dealer tried that once with me when I was in with my Cooper S for a steering problem. Said it needed new discs + pad - Id replaced them 1k miles previously...

Hi mate
think the disks do need doing, there has been a quite bad feeling through the break peddle and through the steering, i thought they may have been warped.
