Where to buy oem or equivalent brake pads for 1.8T

[imported_Nigma]

Hi,

Anyone know of where i can buy reasonably cheap front and read brake pads for an 1998 1.8T sport?

vwspares have quoted about £55 ish delivered.

Also, there seems to be two sizes for the pads, anyone know which ones i need for my car?

Thanks Anand

Try:

www.eurocarparts.com

and...

www.gsfcarparts.com

I think you'll find the price you've already got will be about the cheapest.

Without taking the wheels off, whats the best way of knowing if i have brake wear sensors?

One of the front pads (can't remember which side) will have a wire coming out of the pad friction material.

You should be able to see if you turn the wheels and get under the arch.

think its the inside pad as these wear slightly faster normally
