Just had my first service at 18000 miles and been told i am going to need new rear pads and discs yet the fronts are fine
Can anybody explain this as i always thought front disc would go first
I was advised the same at 1st service. "The rear discs are scored''. The service manager said the car is not doing enough miles and is very common too.
To need new discs after 18k seems bad to me. I've got far more mileage than that on other cars. In fact my Santa Fe did 45k over 10 years and I had not changed the brakes before I sold it. A lot of local driving too.

The rear discs aren't scored .I am going to check if the handbrake is binding.Never heard of back brake pads going before the front before. My personal view is either the bias is wrong or the handbrake is binding
Mine was only advisory and never had problem with electronic parking brake. To make it clear the service manager asked me to rub on the disc and I felt disc's surface is uneven and that caused the advisory.
Had a loose passenger door trim tightened last week and car is booked in again for next Monday morning to have the rear discs and pads changed under warranty due to severe scoring
Do the brakes feel excessively hot (care!) immediately after a drive during which you didn't brake much?
