#1: Front Discs and Pad dimensions Author: QuArTz, Location: South CoastPosted: Mon Jul 16, 2012 3:41 pm ---- I need to replace the front discs and pads on my 54 plate 1.4 petrol.
Could someone tell me the correct dimensions of the discs and pads I would need for my car.
I dont really want to buy new pads and discs, get them home, get all the bits ready, only to find out I have bought the wrong ones.
On a lot of websites im being given multiple choices and I would like to get the correct ones first time.
Thank you

Not without the VIN number.

#4: Re: Front Discs and Pad dimensions Author: QuArTz, Location: South CoastPosted: Mon Jul 16, 2012 3:57 pm ---- Yes... I does have abs.
When pushing the caliper back to fit new pads I should undo the bleed nipples so not to damage the the abs pump.
Is that correct?

If your thinking of a GTI front brake upgrade now would be the time to do it, calipers bolts straight on

It stopped fine with the solid discs on, just didnt like repeated stopping as they faded pretty easily
Mine stops just the same with the 266mm x 22mm vented front discs, they dont seem to mind repeated stopping
