Hey Guys

I have an Astra GTC 62 plate 1.7 diesel.

I need to replace rear brake pads and discs. I'm looking on Euro car parts and there are two types of discs and pads. Is there anyway of knowing which pads and discs are correct short of measuring it all and buying numerous variations?

Thanks. Any help appreciated

Info obtained from another Astra forum

Rear brake discs: 292mm

(except VXR: which are 314mm)

ECP should be able to tell you what pads relate to this size of disc.

Having had a quick look on www.autovaux.co.uk the parts are cheaper than from ECP.
