Title: front discs
Post by: Arpy on 09 July 2009, 21:19:05

just checked front discs fitting new pads but i think disc are worn down they look straight forward to change ie single screw holding them on the question is how much to replace and should i get genuine from local vauxhall ( i have a trade card)

I have suffered with pattern, so stick with genuine or top end of branded (ie, not mintex or similar from a factors, as they will sell you the cheap crap that mintex etc make)

Vx brakes are the best bet pattern discs have been known to warp very quickly Vx are a good price on trade club. Pretty straight forward job

It's around £110 for pads & discs so just put the pads you already have on the shelf for another time!  :y :y
