Well, ordered some bits when I saw this and they've turned up already, all present and correct.

Good job with the site, much easier to find parts

Didn't know Meyle did brake discs.

Thats good value, Vx are what 85+vat now for disc and pad set?

AGP sell individually, but still a good price *IF they can take the abuse that so many pattern ones can't*.

TB strokes chin, as needs new front discs again soon, but doesn't want to be a trailblazer again following the unsuccessful wishbone polys and SC5 incidents...  ...anyone tried these discs yet?

I have spare oe in the garage, and will be looking 360/365 diameter from Audi q7 for the project.

Ah, q7 ....hmmm.

So after you mr Admin sir.

Bought a set of Payen cam cover gaskets (for one bank), and comparing them with the set of GM ones I already have, they appear dimensionally the same, and also the rubber appears to be as compliant at the GM ones.

I propose to fit the Payens to the drivers side bank and the GM th the other bank to allow a direct comparison - will keep members posted.  Well worth trying as the cost savings over GM are very significant!!

Indeed keep us posted, think it would need a few tests to prove they are reliable and consistent. Be amazing if they are

I'm about to search/ stalk for your posts, but any update on this test? Suspect mine needs a set and I'm tempted by the Payen ones if they haven't exploded within 30 miles...
