HDI brake pads. Help? - amiek - 16-09-2013

I need to replace the discs and pads on the lehdi, which has Lucas calipers. On ecp, they don't have Lucas pads; only Bosch, girling, and teves.

What do I need? Or where else shall I go?

any pads will work as long as they are the correct size

Doh

As said; i had the exact difficulty and had to take a pad in to check it over and get the right one.
The 266mm brakes have a couple of different shapes dependent on age of the vehicle.

I could try and find the ECP paperwork for the set i got.
I'm running 266mm lucas calipers also

Just go to CPA, there's one in CHi and there's one in Littlehampton. They're good and they're cheap, should be able to sort you out. .Even if it's wrong, you only have to nip down the road and change them.


RE: HDI brake pads. Help? - amiek - 16-09-2013

Ah bladdy hell! If its no hassle ginge, that would be helpful if they would be the same!

CPA?! Idk Vaughan knows, as will google, may do that then! Can't be arsed with ordering the wrong stuff Sad


RE: HDI brake pads. Help? - ginge191 - 16-09-2013

Or upgrade to gti brakes while you're at it. They're loads better!

Ah yes, the standard hdi power needs the braking of a gti :p


RE: HDI brake pads. Help? - Scott - 16-09-2013

You always need bigger brakes, everyone knows that!

No, it doesn't tbh. But it's nice to know you can out brake the idiot in the bmw who pulled out on you then anchored up, no?

RE: HDI brake pads. Help? - tigerstyle - 16-09-2013

I skim read the thread, but no one has said the obvious: Lucas = Girling?

Indeed


RE: HDI brake pads. Help? - me-tm - 17-09-2013

Uh...

I just got Pagid discs and pads for my HDi with Lucas calipers and fitted them on Sunday.

This is because I looked at the more detailed specifications for the pads on the ECP site (well, I actually got them from carparts4less, but it's the same company). It actually said "Braking system: Lucas" in the additional info on the pads.

Not that hard!


RE: HDI brake pads. Help? - Scott - 17-09-2013

No need to be rude about it mate


RE: HDI brake pads. Help? - Piggy - 17-09-2013

...to not complicate things...dont all 306 266mm brakes have same pads regardless of make of caliper?


RE: HDI brake pads. Help? - John1.4 - 17-09-2013

Or just for a big 'LUCAS' name on the caliper? Wink

You can usually make an educated guess anyway. X reg onwards across the range seem to be all Lucas. HDi's seem to still be Lucas before that. 1.8/2.0 Petrol seem to be Bosch before that. That's only for ph3 though, I haven't had older.
