They do so little its not worth spending much money on them at all, I just got a cheap set from eurocarparts!

Those look like the right discs, but need to check if they have the bearing in, most don't

 

[Tony Hunter]

Cup rears 5%

 

[maxedcup172hl1986]

what if they havent how will i know the difference

 

[DrR]

If they don't have bearing in, you'll have to buy new ones and have the machine pressed in, really is easiest just buying the ones from Renault IMO

 

[maxedcup172hl1986]

so if i dont buy them from renult they wont have them in

[maxedcup172hl1986]

I hate being a student do renault take NUS discount lol

 

[Fred@BTM]

i "think" there's a special offer on with free pads too at the moment, but that may only be if you have them fitted also

 

[maxedcup172hl1986]

option 1
wheres that at my cheapest so far is all renualt parts discs £99.75 Pads £43.41 then labour £60 parts from renualt and fitted at my local garage.

option 2
steve and andy at birchdowns used them before for belt changes and service but a fair drive a way probs £30 in petrol .

Hi Harvey,

renault rear discs come as a pair complete with wheel bearings.
Rear discs and pads fitted inclusive of vat would be £191.43.

Regards
Andy

[DrR]

Stop being a whining student, well lucky to have a 172 cup.

Do it yourself, easy job.

 

[Da]

I was going to say, save the labour cost and DIY - it's not difficult.

Fred (lovely bloke, runs a compnay called BTM Performance) is next to Birmingham airport and will do the rear discs and pads for £188.14 inc vat FITTED

The pads have barely any material on them from new! Have you measured pad thickness? IIRC they are around 8mm from new (correct me if wrong).
