Do I have Brake Pad Wear Sensors?

[dd2005]

All, read several posts on here about brake pads, all v useful.

Before I order my pads can anyone tell me how I find out if I have wear sensors on them? Apart from taking the wheel off and looking for the wires on the passenger side is there any other way of telling?

PS - I have a 1.9 TDi (110), 52 plate.

Thanks.

I'm not certain your model has brake wear sensor circuitry but it's likely. If there's little difference in price, buy pads with sensors - then your covered either way.

Does the cupra have these?

Cupra R does.. but the DS2500's dont...

LC has sensors as does R (unreliable as they are however)
simple link the connector when running ds2500's and the like and no dash lights.
