Hello all,
I have seen references to "trade club" in various posts. What is this please?
I need to change front brake discs and pads on my 2002 2.6 CDX, does anyone have any advice please, other than that in the forum technical guides.

Trade club is a card that allows you to get reduced-price parts, get it either through a dealer (if you're in the trade), or join Autobahnstormers for £15/ year.

It's still £20 per year bud :y. I have received the members mag through the other day and still staes £20 per year.

Thanks for your help. I wonder how many forums, clubs and SIG's there are for Omegas. :-?

Where abouts are you? The last time I bought discs I got non genuine ones, because even with Tradeclub prices, GM ones were dear. ::)

Aylesbury, where the ducks come from - just placed my order with Autovaux - £77 for two front discs and a set of pads and £7-50 for delivery! Should (hopefully) be here tomorrow then I can get to it. I did check the price of a setup from EBC Direct but that was just under the ton :o
-
Fit only genuine Vx front discs - a lot of members, including myself, have found this out through bitter experience!!
Front discs and pads for V6 on TC around £70.

I've found cheap pattern to be utterly rubbish. Decent stuff is OK. Genuine GM on TC represents an excellent price/performance compromise.
Don't forget you need the wear sensors ;)
I used to live in Aylesbury for years - grew up on Bedgrove, lodged in Elmhurst, then bought my first house in Southcourt (all I could afford, but I was in a pretty reasonable area there, right next to the OAP bungalows)
-
OK now I'm worried. Is Autovaux OK or have I just made a big mistake? Does the wear sensor (is there one each side?) have to be changed or can it be salvaged if you're very careful?
-
I'm still growing up on Bedgrove ;D

Only one sensor fitted. You`ll be lucky to save it as they get brittle over time :)

If autovaux provide genuine GM parts, that will be fine.
Chances of reusing the sensor is pretty slim.

I lived on the Cumberland park estate. Brother's missus grew up next door to Dr Death - the Doctor who infamously killed his daughter with a hammer because the voices told him to...

Should be ok with Autovaux last time I got brake parts from them they supplied the same as Vx, although more recently they couldn't supply the vented rear discs for my 3.2 estate. I finally sourced my brake discs from a Mintex supplier, I feel confident in their products after so many years of development and supplying brake parts.I just can remember fitting their shoes on my Herald, reason being my wife's aunt worked for them,and got them at cost of course. :y
