<p>A word of caution might be in order here. I needed new front
pads for my 3500S and bought two varieties listed by Rock Auto
under their Rover listing. Neither were satisfactory. The first
set, when they got hot, smelt strongly of rotting fish. The
second set were noisy -- would squeal reliably when warm. I did a
bit of research and found that pads with identical dimensions were
used on contemporaneous Mercedes 230 and some Volvo models.
Looking for replacements on Rock Auto under those marques yielded
Raybestos PG D4 -- I ordered a set of these and they have been
entirely satisfactory.</p>

Makes a significant improvement to one's stopping capability, at
least it did for mine. Rock Auto carries the 3500 pads.

2000 TC front brake pads no longer works for any of the
parts vendors ive tried. Has anyone bought new pads
lately, and what make and part number should I use?
