Gearbox/transmission module fault

[tacticalx86]

Have a look at this though https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/f1ip...ey=26kltua2ch2thxuw637x6yj36&st=ilwge6an&dl=0

These are from the garage who told me i needed new brake pads and discs , with one from today at the dealer.

There's a fair lip on those discs but the pads look like they have plenty of meat left. I can't see how getting copperslip on the back of the pads or even a bit on the disc would cause you to lose all braking intermittantly.
I mean, if they work sometimes but on occasion, fail to work I can't see how it could be related to the pads, discs, or anything mechanical. It's got to be something to do with either the vacuum to the brake servo or the ABS pump.

What's the rear brakes got to do with it, the only rear brake related issue was a calipher on rear drivers side
the last garage i went to didnt think there was an issue with it but when i said the last one did, they said if it was under warranty i might as well get it replaced. so maybe its not that bad

ok I'll say it again copper slip on two front discs doesn't prevent the rear ones working

You can put copper slip on the disc... Within a few uses it will be off (Well the grease part of it will have burnt off tbh).

That is not your issue.

Whether its the cause of issue or not, surely the brakes in that condition will be an issue in itself?
I spoke to the garage that diagnosed that issue, they said they didn't check the cylinder/vaccum or abs.
Tempted to just get everything they said repaired repaired, and they can check for that then, but need to see if i can get at least some of the cost passed onto the dealership

I'm far from an expert but this sounds like something quite other than copper grease on the braking surfaces...

mainly america, but seriously why havent you just started the rejection.
when my daughter bought her galaxy she was told 30 days bla bla bla. actually a trade customer told me if you find a fault at sale you have 6 months comeback, if the garage are stringing you on then reject it.
i wish my daughter had but she kept saying it will be a good car and i like the colour. 3500 later for a recon gearbox and yes its ok but would have saved a lot of hassle.

Absolutely this, so long as there is a record of the problem(s).

Unfortunately, my partner has discovered this well outside the 6 month period though...

I'm getting the brake master cylinder /and the abs checked.

If that's not the fault I don't know what is.
