Seems like my off side front disc is warped or something else is wrong, a noise every so often can be heard.

Annoyingly, it's booked in for a months time!
If it's a rumbling noise when braking hard that's normal just incase you weren't aware

No, the noise is when driving along and not braking.

I know that the pad can rub a little, but this isn't constant, it's like 1/8 of the disk is making contact on each revolution.

Sucks that its not yet sorted Sam, but no doubt you are in good hands and if your lucky will get some new discs, pads and possibly even calipers out of it.

Was at a wedding IN Ambleside this weekend, and went for a drive before the ceremony. Went up to Kirkstone then down the struggle.

Bit of TLC for the Z today. Clay and polish (+ sealer). Managed to get the exhausts a bit shinier too. Almost as shiny as Marc's, but not quite!
