brake

I have a MK4 Ibiza FR TDI, its been re-mapped and is lowered on coilovers. So it goes pretty well and handles pretty well. Now its time for stopping power! What brakes are an easy bolt on replacement? Pref not too pricey! Cheers Adam

Anyone fitted Mintex brake discs & pads front & rear ? :think: :help: Reason I'm asking is I've seen them and I do fancy a bit of Mintex

Hi all, i need front pads for my 04 Cupra R, i don't hammer her or brake late and heavy so i don't need high performance pads, discs are good just feels spongy and a fair bit of travel but brake fluid has just been topped up by garage i bought her from last week. Loving her by the way, should...

Hi Guys, I'm trying to find CRN brake disks for my LC... the website looks as though it is down. Anyone know where I can get them from? - I'm sure someone mentioned ebay before but cannot find any? Cheers!

My front brake pads feel a bit worn and was thinking of upgrading them, any1 got any advice on different pads?

Hey, this is a bit strange. I haven't really got a clue where to start, but here goes. - Flashing orange coil light when i put my lights on (then stays on until engine is off) - Front right (from drivers position) sidelight comes on when i press the brake pedal - Cruise control...

Alright guys, Just been down to my local Frosts Seat garage, after having a problem with the car, after pulling away in second, it would maintain a constant rpm, and carry on driving without me touching anything, which i was then told it was an anti-stall mechanism. But today the same thing...

hi, i have a seat leon 1900 tdi 2001, can anyone tell me how to change my front brake pads please. thanks dennis.

I want to upgrade the pads on my cupra, happy with the discs, just want pads. Can anyone recomend some good pads that arent specificaly for track use??

Hi Guys Followed the guide to change the pads on my LCR yesterday and it worked a treat, well nearly anyway. I started with the passenger side and it took 20 mins until the new pads were in and all back on the ground, next the drivers side, out came the pins and the pad on the outside, but the...

My cupra tdi is 4 years old so as well as cam belt I been told the brake fluid needs changing too. I have heard it's not as easy as 'have your mate pump the brakes to drain the fluid' anymore and you need something that uses air pressure?! Is there a way of doing it myself as I'm not paying £65!

As the title says i upgraded my 288mm brakes on my Boca to some 312mm ones What u need is a set of carriers, caliper, disks and pads (the stock calipers that come with the cupra/boca are not quite right unlike i first thought) I found out the hard way half way thought and had to try...

Good Morning, I need to replace the high level brake lamp in my 2001 Leon. I have got a replacement but need some advice please as to how to access the spoiler fixings witht he minimum of damage ! I have had a look for the first time at the forums (fora?) today but have failed miserably...

Any idea whats the best way to get rid of rust???

Ive done a search and i cant find anything ... My centre brake light has stopped working. Can someone help me please? The other 2 brake lights work. :( Thanks

Hi Im looking to do the 312mm upgrade. However people keep saying different things, will I need calipers and carriers, or just carriers. I have a pre-facelift Ibiza fr, with 288mm's as standard. Also can you tell me how much your upgrades cost. Cheers :)

Any pointers or links to any guides would be appreciated :o) ?

Hi there, It seems to me Cupra does have a grill near foglights. I was wondering if this is brake duct for taking fresh air into brakes? Does anyone know? Thanks.

I was wandering if anyone could tell me how to change the front brake hoses on the Cupra? I know how to get them off the caliper end (easy) but the other end where it goes to the metal hose. I can't for the life of me work out how to loosen it..! Anyone enlighten me? It's annoying me as it...

Stumbled upon this guide to fit larger discs to the Brembo setup http://www.drivertuition.com/LeonCupraBrakes.htm Takes them from standard 323mm up to 330mm. Also I'm not sure (due to the unclear phrasing) but might be able to go to 345mm?
