Does anyone know who makes the brake pads for the Freelander 2?

TIA MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior
MY15 Xenon Headlight Conversion

MY17 RRS SVR - Estoril Blue Cirrus/Ebony 🪣💺’s

Probably the same Co that make the Callipers..... whoever that is. That's the way it's worked on all the Bikes I've bought new. MY13 Santorini Black SD4 HSE

Callipers are FoMoCo stamped  MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior
MY15 Xenon Headlight Conversion

MY17 RRS SVR - Estoril Blue Cirrus/Ebony 🪣💺’s

The genuine pads used to be TRW with Galfer friction material. There are a few threads on this if you search 'galfer'. FL2 HSE Auto Galway Green
Evoque SD4 Auto Blue.
FL1 HSE TD4 Manual Black - Gone.
RR Classic V8 EFI - Gone

ATE Teves were the OEM supplier to Ford for most of the friction material that was back in the 80’s, 90’s >

(There were other suppliers dependant upon specific model requirements) Regards

Lovely i6 has now gone, but not me......

Please let me know if anything in my post offends you, as I may wish to offend you again......

Just replaced my rear discs & pads with LR genuine parts purchased from Matford at Exeter & on very close inspection of the discs along with the Land Rover logo the discs were actually made by Brembo, which are available from Europarts at very reasonable prices especially when combined with their various duscount codes which change daily

Pads were marked Ford Motor company.

I don't think I'll bother with genuine LR discs & pads next time I change either front or rear.

Jurid make the front pads, and Galfer rears

JLR dont make brakes.

Just wanted to keep the green oval logo on all my new parts - won't be bothering in the future as it's an expensive way to get a print/stamp on a component

I don’t have a FL2 but on my sport I’ve been fitting genuine LR discs (because they are as cheap as after market for my car) and EBC redstuff pads as I’ve heard they are very good and produce a lot less dust than genuine.

Most of the disc rotors even the Brembo will be made in China anyway . I put Brembo on last time , cheap as chips from Europarts . The callipers are single pot sliders from Ford’s world parts bin , and are used on millions of cars . The pads have been sourced from various “low bidders” over the years the car has been in production. Just buy a trusted brand . 2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership
