Brake help asap

[MK3COL]

After receiving 2 wrong sets of discs the new set are on their way but just before they get sent can anyone tell me wether my pads should be bendix or lucas?? Means nothing to me...its a 1.2 16v Dynamique.

Colin,

dont know for sure but id lean towards bendix as ive never seen a renault with lucas gear on it. If you had a haynes manual and your wheel off you could work it out as theyll be shaped differently. Could be wrong though....

 

[MK3COL]

Doh! For some reason Bendix did ring a bell!

 

[BenR]

your brakes are lucas girling! (u33db)

And the 1.2 uses the same pads as the valver, which would be lucas girling.

 

[JAY172]

there is only 1 pad type for the clio 2 small engine models.you only need the make for really old clios as they had 2 different caliper designs using lucas or bendix pads.just so you know your pads will be made by lucas or trw.

 

[MK3COL]

BTTT any one else have an answer?? So far 2-1 to Lucas...
