Rear brake pads

[mike-evans]

Guys if I remember correctly from my 182, its fairly easy to replace the rear brake pads?
I got a 02 172 now, will it be just as easy on this?

Looking at mintex pads....any info on these? good or bad choice?

 

[Goders172]

ill let you know in the morning, replacing mine tonight - standard pads though

 

[mike-evans]

how much standard rear pads cost?

 

[Goders172]

GSF do 2 types ,

Bendicks for £12.50 per set + V.A.T
Textar for £17.50 per set + V.A.T

I believe bendicks are the standard fitted, i have gone for the textar.

Id go with standard setup, dont need anything more for the back brakes.

 

[mike-evans]

Standard as in Bendicks?
Or standard as in straight from my local Renault dealer?

 

[Goders172]

Im just using the textar for the rears, they will be ample. Its the fronts that do the work, id keep std. discs at front but possibly uprate the pads

Goders172sport, did you do your rear pads after?
If so was it a hard job?
