Was looking at my tyres this afternoon, as you do, and thought I'd take a look at my discs.

I don't know how to tell if they need replaced but I noticed that on my fronts, the rim is all rusted and flakes if you touch it. I don't know if this is normal.

I don't know how old the discs are but the car is a late 2010.

Photo of one of the rears too. No corrosion on the outer rim.

Bought a Micra - great little car
"Upgraded" to Kia Sportage - hated it
Proper upgrade to FL2 TD4 GS 60 reg Facelift - tailgate paint issues, fuel gauge rewire, transfer box failure at 36k miles, clutch at 60k
Reconditioned diff at 70k ish
Sold at 84k and now on a DS. Terribly unreliable.
Sold DS for a 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Fingers crossed....
Sold Outlander for a 2014 SD4 SE Tech because I’m mental

as long as there is no substantial lip on the edge of the discs, and the faces are not unduly scored or pitted then those look ok to me mate,

Im no mechanic though so if your unsure just drop into a couple of garages for a free brake check (kwik fit or similar, just don't necessarily take the word of one though)

Ta. It is due an MOT and service in the next couple of months and don't want it to fail on something like that  Learned to drive in 2011.

The discs look fine, that type of corrosion is normal and shouldn't affect the MOT

Good stuff. That's a wee saving. Although it will be the first "major" job I intend on undertaking myself. Learned to drive in 2011.

Should be pretty straightforward and I'm sure there are a few good posts re doing this.

Oh yes all the info is here and I think I know what I'm doing. I just don't need to do it yet  Learned to drive in 2011.
