Hi All,

Can anyone help tell me where this is please?

Had a look in the boot floor and wheel well, but it’s not there…

Need to do front discs and pads soon, and can do that myself.

Just not sure of size as Partsinmotion show 300mm, 312mm and 340mm discs when I enter my reg number.

Brembo’s website shows the PR code for the relevant disc size, which would help if I could find it!

Just being lazy not wanting to take a wheel off to measure the disc 😅

Thanks,

Nick

I doubt you'll find one anywhere on a 2018 car, and even if there is one, it almost certainly won't include front brake PR code.

Message me with your VIN and I can look it up for you.

Front brake PR is 1ZA, 312x25mm. thumbup

That's brilliant, thanks @Breezy_Pete .

I was looking through the wheel thinking they looked just a bit bigger than an LP, so you've confirmed it 😆

Cheers,

That's a well calibrated set of eyes you have. 😆

Thanks again @Breezy_Pete ; Brembo Prime Line discs and pads ordered from Parts In Motion - £128 including free delivery!

Had budgeted a lot more seeing the 340mm discs are £140 on their own!

Cheers,


Nick

Only the 280bhp has 340mm vented fronts and 310mm vented rears.

All the others have 312mm vented fronts and solid 300mm rears.

If you have Electronic parking brake you need something like OBD11 or VCDS to put the rears into service mode and then you push the caliper piston back, don’t wind it. Winding can mess up the mechanism and the caliper then needs a full strip down to reset it. Not guaranteed but def official advice on that one. Only when completely finished do you then take out of service mode before applying handbrake (although please check all that bit in case I’ve misremembered etc).

Thanks @travs , you answered my next question!

Not that the rears need replacing yet, but good to know this too.

Cheers,


Nick

Hi,

I haven't done it on my ex Superb Mk3, but I've made a 'how to' for the front pads of my Kodiaq Mk1 recently. Maybe you can have a look to it. I guess it will be very similar.
