Which brake sizes?

[Mollygoogle]

Is there a sure fire way of knowing which size variant of discs and pads are on my car without measuring them? I need to replace all four corners on my 2006 3.0 TDi Quattro Avant. ECP offers multiple sizes against my registration number.
Are there any easy upgrades? On my A4 I was able to jump up a size just by changing the carriers.

My quattro has 347 front and 330 rear rotors

Thanks for that. Are these sizes the same for all 06 cars?

Nope

Check the build sticker for the car. Match the 3 digit PR codes to the ones on ETKA.

That's a fantastic bit of info, thank you.

I've got 1KD and 1LG on my sticker.

Is it a big task to move up to 347mm?

So no one has moved up to 347mm or similar?

S line is 347/330 on the 3.0 tdi.

Should be 314/302 on the SE with the 3.0 tdi

Mine is an SE and they are 1LG which definitely isn't 314

My mistake I missed the 321mm option

Can I ask a daft question and ask where these vehicle stickers are? I've looked all over and can't seem to find mine. I checked on brembo website for their brembo max discs and it says my lemans has 321 fronts and just by looking I can tell they are bigger so wanted to double check. Cheers people

I'm sure mine is in the spare wheel well.
Should be in the front of the service book too.

I have 1KW which apparently means I have 330mm rear brakes. I've seen a few articles around discussing the possibility of using Porsche Cayenne brakes as a replacement upgrade, does anyone know if this works well or know any detailed articles relating to this?
