LR138646BR Brembo Front Brake Pad Kit L405 L494 L462 L663
LR138646BR is the Brembo front brake pad kit for the Range Rover L405, the Range Rover Sport L494, the Discovery 5 L462 and the Defender L663. It is the front axle set, covering both front wheels, and it fits vehicles built with the 19 inch front disc and caliper.
Two things decide whether this pad fits your Rover, and neither of them is the model year on the title. The first is the brake package. Land Rover built these platforms with more than one front brake, and this kit is the one for the 19 inch front disc and caliper. If your vehicle left the factory with a larger front brake, this is not the pad for it.
The second is the build break, and it is the one most listings get wrong. On the Range Rover L405 and the Range Rover Sport L494 this pad applies from VIN MA000001 onward. On the Discovery 5 L462 it applies to Nitra plant builds from VIN M2000001 to M2450269. On the Defender L663 it applies from VIN M2000001 to M2051241. Earlier vehicles on all four platforms take LR110084, and later Discovery 5 and Defender builds move on to other numbers again. So a model year on its own will not tell you, and a VIN will.
Brembo needs little introduction on a brake part. The pads are ECE R90 homologated, which is the European approval standard a replacement friction material has to meet to be sold as equivalent to the original, and it is a real test rather than a marketing line.
On the Genuine side this application is catalogued as a caliper brake pad kit, axle set, less clips. LR138646 is the factory number this Brembo kit matches, and LR110084 is the number that came before it. If you have been quoted LR138646 for your VIN, this is the same application.
Front pads only. The rear is a different part number and a different shape, so if you are doing all four corners you want both.
FAQ
How do I know whether this one fits my vehicle?
Go by your VIN, not the model year. The front disc and caliper size and the build break are both recorded against it, so a dealer parts counter or a VIN lookup settles it in a moment. Wheel diameter tells you nothing here, because wheel size and brake size are different things.
What if my VIN falls before the range?
Then you want LR110084, which is the number Land Rover used on these platforms before this one. It is a different pad for the same job on an earlier build.
Is this the same as the Genuine Land Rover pad?
It is the Brembo equivalent for the same application, catalogued by the factory as an axle set, less clips. The Genuine number for this build range is LR138646. This kit is made by Brembo and is ECE R90 homologated.
