#1: Front brakes identity Author: bluedan, Location: South WalesPosted: Tue Jan 27, 2015 4:13 am ---- Hello all, just bought a 2002 206, 1.4i, 8v, petrol, 5 door hatchback. Having hell of a time finding the correct fitting. The calipers are Bosch, the discs, solid and the pads, non ABS with no wear indicators and with little leaf springs at the top. Eurocarparts and Ebay seem to differ in what should fit. My reg in Eurocarparts gives one set while Ebay, using model details, gives another? I asked an Ebay seller (trusted) would the set listed as fitting the 2002 2A/c, 1.4i 8v be the ones? (only a generic pic so I was confused). He replied no and gave me a different Ebay number to look up, that set were for the 2004 SW model? He insisted they were the same?? Can anyone tell me for certain what set I need? Main dealer out of the question on my pension. Thanks Ray

Quote the online price and they will match it

He answered when asked, that the set he pointed me at (the SW version were correct', fair do's they were. Macca gave me the part number from my VIN and that matched up at this site www.yoyopart.com/oem/6...49a5.html. It gave all the related vehicles for the discs.
So thanks to all concerned. I did check measurements with Eurocarparts but they didn't offer the full kit of discs and pads as a package. Didn't realise the calipers were bolted on with well stuck, Torx bolts so they'll have to wait, just the pads for now. See how the weather goes. Biggest problem, SNOW!!!!! Every time I started work it lumped it down. Not ideal weather for kerbside mechanics.
Again thanks for all the advice, much appreciated, Ray
