I have added all the disc sizes and part numbers in to the how to here

REAR DISCS for the GTC are the same as the 5 door with 5+115
only the fronts are different


GTC discs & pads - J1ODYA - 17:th-Apr-2014

Right, cars booked in at Vx...

Front disc and pads only £330
Front disc and pads fitted £440

I only need rear pads:
Pads only £37.68
Pads fitted £116.40

Seems a fair deal after looking around to do it myself!


GTC discs & pads - tucpal - 17:th-Apr-2014

sounds shocking to me Lol

Well I am not happy about it


GTC discs & pads - tucpal - 17:th-Apr-2014

so far it has cost me rear pads were £25 and £50 for two discs from Delphi and total labour is going to be £0 smile:


GTC discs & pads - J1ODYA - 17:th-Apr-2014

Yeah but I have a sports car lol

I can find cheaper brands for the pads and rear kit but the front discs are £94 each no matter what so may as well stick with Vx stuff.


GTC discs & pads - tucpal - 17:th-Apr-2014

sports car Lol it is a hot hatch son Thumbs

the pads i got are genuine GM and Delphi makes the discs for vauxhall Smile


GTC discs & pads - J1ODYA - 17:th-Apr-2014

Ok so not only do the GTC have expensive tyres, so are the front discs!


GTC discs & pads - tucpal - 17:th-Apr-2014

it is a real bad size mate looks like going to vauxhall for them is the only option for the GTC
the only way you can save £226.40 is to fit them your self then
sounds like a good idea mate


GTC discs & pads - J1ODYA - 17:th-Apr-2014

Its only £190 to fit, to me it's worth paying that for the hassle to do it myself lol

It's being serviced at the same time & a few warranty bits.


GTC discs & pads - tucpal - 18:th-Apr-2014

i did the rear pads today i cheated a bit a wound the calipers back with pliers but that worked a treat
no problem at all with having the EPB it did not need reprogramming or anything like that
so i will have to get the discs and pads for the front and get them done soon
the only down side was i know why my car has been picking out every bump in the road
i found a snapped spring on the rear so it looks as if they are as crap as the astra H rear springs were
so i may as well get it lowered then Smile
and also found another nail in my Tyre Thud


GTC discs & pads - J1ODYA - 24:th-Apr-2014

I can stop... YAY!

Breakdown of Vauxhall pricing:
Front discs £94 each
Front pads £87 set
Rear pads £37 set
Rear discs £65 each
Fitting fronts £165
Fitting rears £163
Total: £768 odd pence Inc vat

Because I asked nicely I got a 15% discount making it a very reasonable £653!

I am making a note to sell the car before I need new brakes again, in fact the belts etc get changed at 100,000 miles so it may go before then lol


GTC discs & pads - JohnL - 24:th-Apr-2014

Ouch on the cost. Whilst mine was on they advised that the rear pads on mine could do with been replaced soon as I have about 3mm left on them. Price quoted £157 for them to supply and fit going to get a price for the pads and do them myself.


GTC discs & pads - J1ODYA - 24:th-Apr-2014

Unfortunately I couldn't find another other front discs so just decided to get them to do it all.

Pads will be app £37

Hey Guys.

Quite new to the forum. My front brakes and discs need changing.  I have a 62 Plate Astra J GTC 1.7 Diesel, does anyone know the size for these?  Seems to be a few sizes. thanks
