Title: 98 MV6 Brakes info & £?
Post by: Bluestrike on 24 October 2006, 09:03:19
Hi all.
I know there are hundreds of websites to browse but does anyone recommend any particular brand of discs & pads.

I'm not wanting to go mad with drilled discs etc, unless someone knows of some very resonable prices.
 
My car could do with ALL 4 brake discs,pads & rr shoes replacing v-soon!

Model is the 3.0V6 with the 17" Irschmer (grey/silver) wheels. Main dealer told me that rear discs,pads & handbrake shoes are different on that model?? Is he just having me on as I wouldn't expect Vaux to change something like that?

Thanks.... :)

They are not different on that model....and I would recommend Vaux discs and pads if changing and not looking to up-rate things (which can be pricey). I would suggest getting the shoes from a factors, the vaux price for this item is way to high.

If you can get trade club price then all the better:

Front disc and pad set - 93175466 - Retail - £94 Trade club - £66.42
Rear disc's - 90444513 - Retail - £87.00 Trade club - £55.49
Rear pads - 9192126 - Retail - £18.35 Trade club - £10.72  

Where are you, there may be a forum member close by with a trade club card.

Thanks Marks,
Big savings with the trade club card then. I assume I have to be trade to obtain one? (I know that sounds a bit obvious!)
Looks like I'll stick with STD parts then, thanks.
I'm in Mid Shropshire by the way.

Cheers....
