Hey guys.
Does anyone know what the brake warning light and buzzer signifies? Is it the pads are worn, the discs or the whole lot? Is it easy to get in and check the disc thickness? Front min I think is 26mm and rear 20mm. Has anyone done the job themselves? Easy enough to do at home?

I guess this is on your T5. I don't own a T5 but normally the light would indicate brake pad thickness. To check disc thickness you will probably need to remove the wheel & measure with a vernier caliper or micrometer.
Understand how it works, troubleshoot logically BEFORE replacing parts.
