I have an Octavia 1.4 petrol Ambiente with one of the back brake plates (drum brakes) in need of replacement, I have failed to locate a replacement new or used. Can anyone give guidance on where I might source one, please

Welcome along, I see at the opposite end of the country to me!  I had three 1.4 Ambiente Octavias years ago, never gave me an ounce of trouble.  You might stick that post on the Octavia I forum and I'm sure you start getting a few replies there......good luck

Superb170 thanks for your reply, sorry for not responding sooner. As I`m new here I dont`know my way around yet, if I can find my way to the Octavia 1 forum I`ll try that, thanks again

I'm sure you'll find your way around quickly enough, here's the MKI forum

Superb170, many thanks for the link you sent me.

Managed to locate a backplate fairly local, job done and NCT passed, thanks
