Thanks for the advice Judd! I'm going to take it back to Europa tommorrow as the cars nearly new and tell them to clean and lubricate them. Regards Steve.

My Subaru XV 2.0 SE Premium was bought new by me in October 2018 from Europa Sheffield and has covered 15000 miles from new. last week i could hear a scraping noise coming from the front brakes. I took it to my local Subaru dealer Europa in Sheffield and they told me it needed new discs and pads as they were badly worn down at a cost of £368. I queried this as i don't brake hard and have taken my advanced test and have been driving over 40 years and previously had 2 Mitsubishi ASX' s one did 37000 miles before new pads were needed! Europa said it was normal to see wear like this from 15000 miles! i disagreed. They contacted Subaru who after some deliberation agreed to supply and fit the front discs fee of charge but i would have to pay £139 for 2 pads fitted which i had no choice to pay. The only thing is now when i do a short journey i.e 6 miles when i feel at the front discs they are extremely hot! Has anyone come across any of these issues before? Regards Steve.
