oh yeah the other stuff.
Been noticing a weird whining noise when I turn sharp left or right. Took it to the dealers (not my service dealer) who said my rear pads had started to wear in the disks. As a result new pads & disks needed
Does this sound like
?
I only had a service 1500 miles ago-they told me I had circa 3K miles on the rear pads.
I've phoned the service dealer & I'll get them to have a look.

Moggy that pads and discs tale is an age old stealer line on any car!.
They gave it to me last time I was in.
Checked mine against Fieldl's car, same age double the mileage - no difference.
Check the pad depths and disc widths first!
Might be worth getting the shims recoated with the "antisqueal" copper grease

My stealer tried 3 times (during 3 routine services!)to change my pads, telling me I only had 2k miles left on them. I went to another dealer and he said I had 60% wear remaining. The first time the stealer did this was August last year. I'm now changing the pads after 18k miles!!!! Losers
