How to identify breaks disk type?

Featured Replies

Hi all,

I was given a quote for my Rapid 2016 spaceback.. It needs new tyres, oil service and breaks service. And the garage gave me a £1697 quote. Which seems insanely expensive. So I dodged the bullet and started researching the prices. And to my shock a disk can be hd for 20-40 pounds. A set of pads the same. The garage was quoting 170 for the same.

Ny question is, how do I reliably identify the type of disks I need for the front? For the back the information is in my booth, on that sticker that is near the tyre reserve. But I can;t find anything for the front. Is really calling a dealer with VIN the only way?

Thank you., Kris

Not entirely the only the way…

Calling dealer with VIN might not even work. They tend to only want to give part numbers out after you have paid for the items. I'll message you so that you can reply with VIN.
