brakes

After my recent service I was advised that my rear discs were slightly warped. Been noticing it more now especially slowing down from 60/70mph. Was wondering if anyone on here has changed the rear discs and pads on the MK3 leon? Is it simple enough? Cheers Andy

Evening Folks, Looking for some help.. From time to time, the car feels like the rear calipers are not releasing fully causing it to feel sluggish. When this happens, the handbrake also feels like it has somewhat less resistance when pulled. Coincidentally, when this happens, the clutch pedal...

I've got a Cupra 280 and I need some new brakes. I was thinking of getting some DS2500 pads but i'm unsure if I should marry it up with the oem discs or something more heat resistant. I live in the city and don't take it on track but I DRIVE my car and like it to have good stopping power...

Can someone link me a pair of front brake pads and discs as when looking online, so many different sizes come up. Especially ECP, dont want to order wrong parts. Not after performance or anything. Seat ibiza fr 1.2tsi 2015

I have MK1 Cupra R Brembo calipers. On one the metal pipe is corroded. I need to get a new one of these pipes or get a custom braided hose that would replace the metal pipe. I was looking at getting custom brake lines made but don't know what fittings I need on each side of the braided hoses.

Hi, just after some advice Im looking to change my front brakes and want to know which brake discs and pads are decent. Looking on euro car parts theres so many to choose from. I do a lot of motorway miles & im not after performance. if someone could link me to some decent sets on eurocarparts...

Hi, Has anyone else got a new SEAT Ibiza FR with issues with the brakes, maybe not being as sharp as you’d hoped or just the breaks not being there all together:blink:? Or any problems with the brake master cylinder ? Thanks, Megan

I've had a Seat Ateca for just over a year (registered April 2017) and noticed a juddering when braking. My local garage had a look and said there was some rust on the discs so I took it to the dealer who confirmed this. I said that this should not have happened after only 15,000 miles so they...

So I've had this problem for a while now and need some help diagnosing further. I will put a disclaimer right here that I do not have a huge amount of knowledge or experience in car mechanics so am very much a novice to these things. All the info I have right now is from investigating myself and...

Hello! Just joined the forums today and I’m in the process of buying myself a 61 plate Bocanegra (6J). I have had a test drive in the car today and these cars kick out a lot of power but I noticed that the discs are a bit worn and the breaking distance wasn’t really that great... I was...

Hi all, Just wondering if a Mk1 TT, 225 Turbo will fit my 2001 LC (non R). Mates upgrading so I can nab his turbo, intercooler etc etc. Is it possible to fit with some cunning / FMIC etc? Also wana do a big brake upgrade, what brakes and calipers would fit? Im looking at some RS4 at...

As above. Ive got an awesome plan for the leon but need to know if you can squeeze 312mm brakes behind 16s first :D Thanks in advance Dave

Will the brembos from the cupra fit onto the 1.8 leon (with LCR rims attached)? I want to get mine upgraded but I don't know exactly what I should be getting (I'm new to this stuff)

Ok done a search, and none really match my problem. Not had the car long, it came with TT brakes. The discs and pads where badly needing changed so i put the rubbish brakes down to this. Brand new discs and pads all round still rubbish! They feel not bad when braking from high speed, but...

what is the differance between the leon cupra and audi s3 rear brake setup? cheers

I changed my front brake discs and pads over the weekend, and did a thorough job as always :) But now when accelerating I am getting a vibrating or pulsing through the pedal. I don't really feel anything coming through the steering wheel which I thought I would have if it was the new...

Iam looking to get a bigger brake setup for my MK1 Leon FR TDI. Just wondered what other alternatives are out there other then the Brembo Cupra R calipers and discs ?

Helo guys somebody changed front breakes from 288 to 345 on Leon 1P ? I know that I must changed more things but I like to do it! I would like to use original BREMBO KIT brakes parts 1P0071450. Each addvance is good. Please dont write me that is boloney :-) Thanks

Hi, Im trying to order a set of rear brake discs and pads off of vwspares.co.uk. Now the rears are 256mm vented right? but what are the pads, the same as the rest of the range as indicated on the site or should they be different considering the disc diametre is larger? I was going to be...

Recently bought some Blackdiamond cross drilled disks and some Blackdiamond pretator pads to go with. Went to the garage this morning where i have all my tinker work done, and the pads are completely the wrong ones. The disks are fine! Havent changed though, as id prefer to have new pads too...
