You have better eyes than me! I thought the disks were done too haha

Having watched it again I agree with clan. Drive as normal & check back in a few weeks (dependant on usage)

As per the title, I changed the pads and disks at the same time. The plot thickens.

those rear discs are not new , they have done a lot of miles see the rust around the edge ?

Fitted end of July, however excuse the term I used ''recently''.

I wanted to see if the noise dissipated with use, however 2879 miles later it hasn't. I wouldn't lie, I have nothing to gain.

did you change the pad retaining spring plates which came with the pads ? and cleaned the caliper bracket before fitting if you did ?

I cleaned the caliper bracket and fitted the new retaining clips. The pads moved nice and freely with the guides. If it was happening on one side, perhaps its something in my process that has caused this. However both sides replicating the same symptoms points to either the EPB motors or EPB controller if one exists ?
