Pete,
I don't think changing the rear discs will cost much as a dealer only charged me about £100 for rear discs & pads. Certainly as the discs are below the scrapping limit there *might* be a link. Brakes are something I'd not ignore under any circumstances.
Change them, and the pads, and hopefully your latest problem will go away.
