Hi everyone, hope you had a happy Christmas.
My brakes have become gradually more and more fade-prone, and after a somewhat dicey trip back home on the M25 have become hopeless. Real caliper on disc graunchy grindy stuff.
I bought a set of Pagid pads, and was going to have a go at fitting them tonight, and so with ten spare minutes between customers, I got the car on on a lift at work to have a look at the job, and check the discs aren't too bad.
I'm glad I did. They're absolutely ******. I'm a bit embarrased, to be honest, they should never have got to this stage, and they sailed through an MOT a month ago...
So. Being that I need new discs I feel I might as well do the traditional B6 312mm discs and TT Calipers trick. I'll be ordering the bits tomorrow, I've taken the car off the road for the time being, have to make do with a spare Ka we have knocking about.
Does anyone have a Euro Car Parts part number for the carriers? I'll use Euro as we have a trade account there. If not a part number, could someone give me "The Precise Thing To Ask For"? Sounds stupid, I know, but on a tight-ish schedule I'd hate to get the wrong bits
Thanks in advance...
