Discovery Sport Rear Disc Corrosion

Electronic Parking brake issue?

Our 2017 discovery sport suffered the same problem at 13,000 miles. Discs and pads were replaced under warranty with no problems at the local LR dealership.

perhaps you need to ignore the service interval and get it done every 12 months and they may have picked up on this. if its a diesel then a lot of LR owners change the oil every 6 months due to DPF problems and contaminated engine oil.

You are more likely to get some answers on a Disco sport specific forum.

There are indeed lots of answers to questions on Disco forums.........

discoveries are renowed for rust. Lived in Scotland in an off road location, had an old style discovery, when the Mot examiner said it had a serious rust problem underneath and needed a weld job I got rid, 4 years old, and dont forget the gear box oil, old model used to be every 2 years or 24k miles. Great in off road and snow conditions, and great at towing but regularly comes bottom or near bottom in the Which reliability chart. 

Newer LR models have redefined the term “off road”. Too many end up being recovered or in dock being repaired, hence, “off road”.

I have a Discovery Sport Se Tech which I took delivery of in October 2015. I had to replace the rear discs and brake shoes after 18 months and around 11000 miles. I was told by the service manager that I had not used the car enough and was the reason for the problem! Contacted customer services at the factory who instructed the garage to replace the parts at no cost to me. Satnav also was unreliable, often going off route and was towed back from York Rowantree site when exhaust filter failed. Overall this car was frequently back to the garage and consequently, although this is my ninth Landrover, it will be my last.

A friend had to have discs replaced at a low mileage due to rust. Was done under warranty. Mine 3 years old and 25k miles has been ok so far (famous last words)

Thanks for all the responses. Apparently, the LTB given in my earlier post has been up-dated. Haven't got a copy but the Dealer says I can view it. I guess the best advice is to have the brake pads checked regularly. I did and was surprised to find that 6mm in June 2018 went to zero by the time of the service on 13/02/19. It was this wear on the pads that scarred the discs, something to do with the light/heavy load settings, although I always adjust these for towing and non-towing. Have decided to go no longer than 3 months without having the pads checked.
