Check the rear pads too and don't just look at the outer pads as the inner ones can wear quicker - at least they did on mine with the outer ones looking good for another year!

 

Check the steering gaiters for cracks and leaks.

Check the CV boots for cracks and splits (inner and outer).

Check the disc thickness's are in tolerance.

Wheel bearings.

Play in tie rod ends.

 

All depends on how much time have you got and how much you are happy to leave for the MOT checks to find.

Thanks guys, Just had an mot last month so that was all checked then

 

in then end also purchased new brake fluid, PAS fluid and new belts aswell from ZMANALEX so hopefully that should be all thats needed for a little while, also thought one of the baffles had gone in my exhaust but on climbing under the car to identify the diff noticed the heat sheild had come loose so now hoping it is that thats causing the vibrating/knocking sound and just requires a washer to fix.
