Looking to fit some new discs and pads of rear of mine 05 tfsi Quattro but I'm not 100% sure what size they are.

It's currently hammering it down here and has been all weekend and I want to get them ordered today, I've managed to look inside the boot and the build sticker shows 1LA and 1KW. Would I be right in thinking I have 320mm and 288mm brakes? The rear arnt vented though, they are solid.

Thanks.
 
1LA 320 front, 1KW 288m rear.

Front vented, rears solid.

Thanks Darren. I've read a few threads saying the rears needed to be vented to be 288mm so it threw some doubt up.
 
Always go by your PR codes. Even shows on etka what the description should be of the disc.

OE part numbers for reference

Front
Disc - 8E0 615 301 AD (320x30mm)

Rear
Disc - 8E0 615 601 M (288x12mm)
 
Experienced the same issue/confusion while sourcing the correct Brembo discs/pads front and rear instead of OE last year.
But like Darren points out, the correct OE numbers are indeed 8E0615301AD (Front) and 8E0615601M (Rear)
 
Although already confirmed, my 2.0TFSI is 320/321mm front (30mm thickness) and 288mm rear (12mm thickness).

One day I may upgrade to 345mm front and 300mm vented rear.
