Hi Guys, car failed MOT on binded brake on osf and was advised to get a new caliper as piston in it was the problem. So i bought a caliper on a website with a car reg look up and it recommend a caliper that looked like the first pic below, as you can see it has 1 bolt built in. the 2nd image is the pretty much i dentical to the one I have on the car and as you can see it has no built in bolt, but has holes for the bolts to go through. Can anyone tell me in the new caliper i bought will still fit? even though it was different fitting. anyone else had this?

Any help would be great

Liam

brakesint lists 3 types of 206 calipers for my 2.0 HDi when i give it the reg number:

with the bolt

without bolt 1

without bolt 2

As you see all of them go with different pads, means also caliper bracket will be different, even if you can match those bolts.. So I bet that it won't fit your system.

Always wary of different brake systems fitted (bosch, lucas), and don't rely that website guesses the correct one from your reg number alone (i learned this the hard way by not studying pads/discs diagrams and measuring own ones)


	2.0 HDi, year 2000 (E's restin') Red GTi 180, year 2004 (VorTechS' sEXy Beast (being) remasteRed) Blue GTi 180, year 2004 (in hibernation after endless driving fun in 2019, queued for "cambelt in tight spaces") Missus' 1.6 16v CC, year 2007 (L-plates to P-plates to NO-plates, but now she wants powwer:)) £50 1.4 HDi, year 2002 (seatless transporter, SORNed, rust needs patching) EV Jag S(crapped)- & X-Type GTC VXR (sold)
