Doubt it. Check the wear on your disc's and pads. Or the pads might need a wee bit of copper grease.

kk well they are new pads and disks so might still be wearing in! what brake hoses are good to buy? was thinking maybe getting some braided ones and then taking it to my local garage and just paying labour for them to fit them!

Depends on budget and what kinda upgrade (if any) you want to do to your brakes. But IMO, if they need replacing, you may aswell get braided ones
