Well pads and discs are easy to check if they are worn. When did you last have your brake fluid checked or changed.

You can buy better pads, bigger discs are upgrade to S3/ED30 brake kit or you have the money buy a BBK kit from a tuner.

had a service last week so Im assuming it would have been checked but it wasnt replaced. Im also guessing Mintex are good performance pads
