Fitted new Mtec front & rear discs plus Mintex pads. Also fitted new handbrake shoes. Fitted Mtec discs & Mintex pads to our TF a few weeks ago. I like this set up. Previously fitted Mtec discs to TF nearly 8 years ago & lasting for 60K miles. Now going out for a run this afternoon to bed in.

Had another look at the rear suspension knock, think I’ve finally found the issue. No time for a test drive though so it will have to wait. Just need to find time for the boot leaks and reverse sensor issue.....
