Title: Front brake pads
Post by: Ben_jammin on June 15, 2017, 09:18:24 pm

Hi all,
Firstly, apologies, as I'm certain this question has been answered somewhere. I've tried searching but can't seem to find what I need.

I'm looking for new front pads, but euro car parts has a load of different options and I don't know which ones I require. Short of buying a few and returning the wrong ones, can anyone shed some light on which ones I need?
2008 year if it helps.

Cheers!

Didn't think of that. Automatically associate dealers with inflated prices.

Pagid or Brembo are the only ones id consider from euro car parts, ive never had a problem with either of them for normal driving.
If your having issues with this type of pad then you need to look toward a more performance orientated version.
