Rear discs source

[Patrick Bateman]

What's the latest on the best place to source OEM discs?

These discs and pads for under £100- http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281077355493?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

Seems pretty good to me but I'm sure I've seen folk in the past quoting really cheap costs for these if you know where to look?

never had a problem, set on the wife's car has done at least 50,000 miles and still ok.

Rears are expensive for what they are and do. It s cos its got the bearings pressed in. £100 for a complete brake set up seems good value to me. I need to do mine so will take a looksie..

Yeah true, I forgot they were pricier than you'd think.

I found these Brembo ones for the front that look good value FWIW- https://www.kamracing.co.uk/car-tun...se-2-0-16v-172-182-renaultsport.html?___SID=U

I'll keep that in mine if I need fronts done cheers.

What's the story regarding rear caliper seal kits with these? Can find plenty options to buy fronts but struggling with rears.

Despite both rear calipers being replaced by the previous owner 2 years ago, my O/S/R brake pad is about half the thickness of the N/S/R and I noticed this yesterday when under the car-

That's just grease, if it's the side that's stick g wouldn't worry about it much. Chances are the pads are stuck in the carrier, if they are just give them a clean and file a bit of the ends so they can move in the carrier a bit.

If not check caliper is moving on sliders, if that's OK check handbrake cable is free.

Ah good news! It's getting rear discs and pads shortly so I can mention to the garage.
