Cool - thanks a lot for your help. Saved me buying 340mm stuff and having to return it.

I've found these - would you say that these would be correct? https://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Skoda_Octavia_2.0_2016/p/car-parts/regular-service/car-service-parts/brake-discs/?10444150A&1&2ed63958ae5c37758926372b40ece04c4efe5431&000027 https://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Skoda_Octavia_2.0_2016/p/car-parts/regular-service/car-service-parts/brake-pads/?10144210A&1&4d2e4266ee70fa0ba796ae38a3a0edf9d0f6fd38&000036 There are no ATE pads suitable for 312 discs on there. On the Brisky Facebook group I was warned to stay away from Brembo and go for Pagid. What would you advise if I can't get ATE pads?

Yeah I've just compared a pic to my old 63 VRS and the discs on the newer car are definitely smaller. No idea what discs and pads to buy now then - the ones I get linked to on Euro Car Parts when posting my reg are all 340mm 😫😫😫

Hmm - that's thrown up a question on mine too then. I am in the process of getting new discs and pads - mine is a 66 plate and Euro Car Parts are saying I need a 340mm disc. I've just looked and I have a curved caliper.

The 2nd chat was a bit more helpful and said that the Brembo's should fit. The only thing that he couldn't advise on was the wear sensor. Obviously they are fitted to the current OE pads - not sure if they would be compatible with aftermarket ones though.

No he didn't tell me that it may not be on the sticker, nor did he tell me what the code actually is. I've phoned the dealer too but he just pointed me to Euro parts and said they have access to the VAG directory. I will try another chat and see if I have any more luck.

I'm not sure how I find the specific PR number for the brakes. I've found the sticker in the boot but it has various different PR numbers. 1KT 1AT 1N7 1DO

He said that all they had in was rears and nothing for the front end. I assume that he is right - I just wanted to double-check on here incase somebody had fitted those Brembo's and found that they are compatible.

Hi all I've been discussing this briefly on the Brisky Facebook page but need a bit of info if possible. I need to replace my discs & pads on my O3 VRS and have spoken with my dealer who are quoting £243 for the parts. The following Brembo parts are showing up as suitable when using the reg search on Euro Car parts. I then spoke with one of their team on live chat who said that they are not compatible due to the PR number not matching. Can anybody clear this up? https://bit.ly/2Rkc6nT - discs https://bit.ly/2ITdzO6 - pads Once Euro have their 50% discount running again it will be around £159 all in, for what I assume to be better quality parts?

I'm no mechanic but don't feel that that is normal. My 63 plate VRS with 39k never had it and my current 66 VRS with 2k hasn't had it either.

Today I cleaned her

Filled it up with diesel and treated it with a boot full of shopping.

Agree with all of your points here. I was coming from a 63 VRS and it just seems so much better all round. The new screen is great and like you say the speakers seem better too. All round it just seems more refined. I was expecting to have just bought the same car again and possibly be *slightly* underwhelmed but that isn't the case at all.

Here she is. Better than expected - the dealer told me it had the black pack when infact it has the black pack plus - so the usual grille and mirrors, but also 19" extremes, colour maxi-dot and sunset glass.

It turns out that my dealer specced new car came with a black black plus, so colour maxi-dot, roof rails, grill, mirrors, 19" extremes but most importantly sunset glass!
