Fabia vRS - need confirmation of brake disc/pads

[stevenh]

OK,

i've had a search around here and there seems to be a bit of conflicting information, so I was hoping that someone who has actually ordered and fitted brake discs/pads from ECP could confirm the correct part nos.

I will be getting a local indy to fit these so can't take a hit with the wrong gear.

The bits i'm looking at buying are:

Front Discs (Part Number: 104440798) - http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Skoda_Fabia_1.9_2005/p/car-parts/brakes/brake-friction/brake-disc/?104440798&1&d4bd70ae5a9e5a77c4832a10e9d1dde567e978c3&000027

Front Pads (Part Number: 101440418) - http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Skoda_Fabia_1.9_2005/p/car-parts/brakes/brake-friction/brake-pad/?101440418&1&3712b731285652f2306c20ba07419ac6609ee3f8&000036

Rear Discs (Part Number: 104440748) - http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Skoda_Fabia_1.9_2005/p/car-parts/brakes/brake-friction/brake-disc/?104440748&1&6c0b488ed75c1834e6e43c95bb3fd60ca6ef41f6&000027

Rear Pads (Part Number: 101440328) - http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Skoda_Fabia_1.9_2005/p/car-parts/brakes/brake-friction/brake-pad/?101440328&1&45c1df77fe33f5f357af70a5211d6ec8181c0d18&000036

Thanks for any advice guys.

Why not just put your reg in and let it bring up the right parts for you? :S

...because it doesn't! It offers a "choice" of parts fitted to a Fabia not a VRS specifically. ECP's customer website will cheerfully allow you to order 239 or 256 mm front discs or pads. It's pants!

@OP, I think your front pads are wrong. I think you need this shape...

Hi, I bought some OEM parts from Skodaparts.com discs were similar in price, however the centres are painted so no rust on the centres

Cheers

Not sure if it works in store, but it saves having to ask/faff around!

25% is nice though ECP have regular better efforts. I picked my full set of Pagids up for £100 with a 35% offer last month. More usual to see the odd 30% offer floating about.

Ditto but got 312mm front discs and pads plus standard rears for £115 all in.

Good choice with the Pagid parts. Why faff around wondering if you have the right size parts, just go into a branch and buy them with the discount code.

So these ones then? http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Skoda_Fabia_1.9_2005/p/car-parts/brakes/brake-friction/brake-pad/?101441398&1&2a19409108237b6b72d9b2160706125617b4f2ec&000036

ECP site is a tad confusing!

[vindaloo]

Those look like the right ones. I used other, more specific sites to zero in on the shape/size. Note "without pad wear indicator" as pad wear indication isn't fitted to the Fabia.

I'll be honest I just assumed they would be right after putting my reg in and received the 239's , they swapped them over no probelem though. Just make sure they are 256 in the description and you'll be fine. I got pagid pads and the eicher discs, pads grip great and discs are fine! I painted mine silver around the edges to stop them going rusty.

Shirley you mean 288mm front discs for the VRS?

What he said... 256 is the disc size for non vrs fabia.
