Brake Pad - Part Number Query

[Nilz]

Just a quick question, when I got my S3, the guy I got it off said he had a spare set of brake pads in the boot, so the times come for me to change my front pads, so I just wanted to check they are the right ones for the car.

Its a 2002 8L S3 (AMK) and the part number on the brakes is 1J0 698 151 M

Can anyone advise if these are the right pads for the car??

Cheers

Google comes up with this dude.

GENUINE PART
FRONT BRAKE PAD SET
FRONT USE W/ 288x25MM ROTORS W/ PAD SENSOR:
W/WEAR INDICATOR

So no, they won't fit.

Oh ok cool, which ones are for mine then dude?

Am I right in thinking these are the TT ones?

Not 100% sure mate, they might fit, the calipers for the 288mm brakes are the same I think. Need to take yours off and compare. I can get you some Ferodo's at trade prices if you need pads anyways dude, so text me if you need.

Looks like they fit mate, calipers on 288's are the same as the 312s then, Lucas ones.
