Guys, can someone confirm the Brembos are not fitted to the 2010?

Obvisouly they stopped branding the brakes with the Brmbo Logo a few years back but they were still the same brakes.

Did LR actually downgraded in 2010? Evil or Very Mad Rolling Eyes

Pics woul dbe helpfull.

PS : on my TDV8, the calipers are now a dull light grey and indeed the logo has come off due to cleaning products it seems.
Land Rover knows the problem and has since painted the caliper with another paint. l=Oo\________/oO=l l:OolΞΞΞΞΞΞΞloO:l

On the TD6 I had about 4 years ago the brakes were fine, but then the difference in performance over a TDV8 is considerable.


Bit baffled here, the performance is different yes, it can get up to a higher speed quicker, and may need to brake from a higher speed. However, and this is the nub, the vehicle weighs roughly the same as a TD6, and you are towing (at a max of 60mph). Performance does *not* come into this, the same 'not brembo' brakes will surely perform the same on both vehicles? Land Rover Addict

That makes perfect send on a mecanical point of view, however, since drivers of TDV8 may be tempted to use more power and play more, hardier brake with more endurance are fitted. l=Oo\________/oO=l l:OolΞΞΞΞΞΞΞloO:l

I would agree - but the main complaint here seems to regard towing..... Land Rover Addict

Oh and one more thing - if you turn on Forward Alert, the system will pump up your brakes, requiring less input from yourself if you are approaching something too quickly. Land Rover Addict
