I need to change my rear pads and disks ASAP but am not 100% sure what parts I need to order. :confused:

Car is a LC 03 1.8T
Am I right that if I order pads from GSF that I need to order one set with wear sensor and another set with out???
As been looking at other posts saying that you only have a wear sensor on one side?

Also I take it that the disks I need for the rears will be 288mm right? I take it one set covers one wheel, so need 2 sets right?:headhurt:

Cheers
From the confused noob. :blink:

rear discs are 232mm mate, 312mm on the fronts.

pads, will come as a set, with passenger axle having the wear sensor.

order the discs in pairs. usually sold and priced as singles

ON page 43 or page 23 on the PDF bookmarks, under Seat leon 1.8t Disks it does not have that size listed?
Only shows 288mm 280mm and 312mm??? :cry:

But your right as just called my local Seat garage and i asked them and they confirmed 232mm

Called GSF and just asked how much it was for the parts so for Brembo disks and bosh pad set it will cost £66.13 :)

Sounds good?

forget them then.

id ask them if they do pagid or jjurid rears tbh.

So Bosch no good then i take it? Do you think i should get the Brembo disks from GSF and get the pads else where? Can any one recommend a good site, preferably with free delivery? :D

Was thinking about getting EBC pads for the fronts but not sure if it worth it for the rears?
