Dumb question about brakes

Hi servicing time and just thinking about the rear brake setup.

Never really have had those changed but the rear drums do look rusty. Is it easy to upgrade the rear to discs and pads? I've never changed the brakes before as I've normally left that to the dealer. He mentioned the front discs and pads last time, and I had them changed, but nothing about rears.

regards,
M
 
It's not a dumb question but it is incredibly hard and expensive to change to discs from drums, which is why no-one has yet done it!

Rear brakes are used so infrequently on the A2 that you are better off sticking with drums as they tend not to corrode and pit as quickly as discs do.

Cheers,

Mike
