Brake Sets

Post by 1st480 » Tue Nov 04, 2008 6:11 pm

Hi all,

I have a '92 1.7 ES and am looking at replacing all the discs and pads. Can anyone tell me how to tell which type I need front and rear without taking the old ones off. From what I've heard there are 2 disc types for the rear and 2 pad types for the front. I assume the choices in front discs are only for vented or not?

Regards,

Leon

just give your local partco or motor factors your registration number and they can normally tell what you need from that.
140mph for £175 just test the brakes
