Hi Tunnie,how do i rectify this.So first my life and my wife's life have been in jeopardy for the last ten years.When i bought the parts from Andy c he knows what he talking about,he is a good man.So now what do i order from vauxhall,vented or solid.And if i order vented will they fit.

[Fraggles Rock]

Really need to see what's fitted

Are we 100% talking fronts, not rears?

If you cant post a pic, email one through to me and ill put it up for you - letter icon under my name shows my email address

A picture paints a thousand words and all that... in order to best advise you, we need to see exactly what is fitted

Hi mate,i will try to put some pictures up but just to clarify.Approx 4 years ago i ordered new discs and pads from Andy c who worked at a vauxhall parts department.I was with my mechanic when he fitted them,the ones he took off were defiantly solid.And the ones that were supplied were solid.So i don't know what happened before i brought the car,maybe the calipers were changed to accommodate this.I will speak to vauxhall on Monday and ask what they are supplying,but if you are saying solid is wrong.I don't really know where to go from here,do i ask for vented or solid. .Dean.

Andy C was/is one of the most knowledgeable Omega parts suppliers out there. I can't believe he would have supplied the wrong parts for your car
