no idea to be honest mate. ive only got mintex pads on mine and a mechanic mate sourced them. the only helpful advice i can give is that from my experience with 2 206's that their brake setups really vary and your best bet is to go take a look as soon as possible and try to work it out from there. or phone a peugeot garage for advice

i've got mintex pads on my 1.4 sport i've had them on for 6 months and they are now squeeling even when copper grease was applied to the rear of the pads and inside the brake disc (the side that touches the hub)

I got the same problem looking at discs for my HDi which apparently also uses 2 different types of GTi caliper.

I measured the pads on my car and looks like its the 137mm, and service box shows I need the 166x22 discs.

If you have your vin number, check what service box says, or put it here and someone can check for you.

Oh and from what I have read on here, the Brembo Max with Ferodo pads are the way to go.

Check my thread here mate -
www.206info.co.uk/Foru...13737.html

The piccy from service box for the discs says Diam 266 EP22 so although i dont quite know what EP means, im taking it to mean i need the 22 and not the 20.5.
I measured my pads as you can see on the link i posted.
So did service box say EP20.5 for yours?

Im all torn between just getting stock stuff or the bremmy frodo combo.
Probs selling the car soon so maybe going stock.

So im starting to think it 266x20.5 with 131 pads on pre plex as yours is 2000 and 266x22 with 137 pads on 2001+ multiplex like mine.

I think u right about the plex years. Yeah service box says 20.5 for me and using my reg at euro car parts comes up with the 131s standard pads. On service box check your engine number and compare it to the pads on ebay in your thread. i looking for the ds forodo pads cant find either flavour gonna ring few on Monday with vin see what they know as i heard the 1.6xs has the same callipers. If tour selling i would just put basic ones on. Who of thought sourcing breaks would be so so troublesome. Confused
