Brakes Shopping list
« on: 22 February 2008, 21:34:15 »

Heading for the dealers in the morning to try out my trade club card & order the pads & discs for the beast.

apart from the front & rear pads & discs ( I'll buy rear shoes off ebay)
is there anything else I need to get??
Also how many wear sensors are on the car?? front wheels only or all 4?

need 2 sensors, one for each front wheel.

Bit of copper slip to put on the edge of the pads, and where the caliper touches the pad.

Stiff wire push to clean the area up, degreasing agent to clean up the discs.

Have a look at the handbrake cable return springs before you go...they corrode and sometimes snap when you remove them.
