My front discs have cracked!

[sarah_casper]

Hello my fellow forumers,

Help please - I need some new discs asap!

Not planning on track use, just discs for my normal daily drive (country roads).

What shall I get?

Thanks

Standard OEM Brembo HC discs should be fine.

What about these:

Oh I need pads too.

Can someone send me a link please? I'm baffled

 

[Tree200]

OEM pads should be fine too unless you want to go for something harder? http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2090&appid=3

These are the Brembo pads I went with (Brembo part no P68036) http://www.apbrakediscs.co.uk/front...i-bm0-1-cm0-1-2-0-renault-sport-05-04-to.html @ £35.96

I paired them with the Brembo discs you linked above (Brembo part no 09.8904.10) http://www.apbrakediscs.co.uk/front-brembo-brake-discs-renault-clio-iii-2-0i-16v-sport-rs-06-on.html @ £69.25

You might want to get a new calliper pin kit (Renault part no 7701208118 - you need two of them), as they can bend and warp in the callipers through use and be a nightmare to remove, let alone get back in, I got http://renaultpartsdirect.co.uk/products/Renault-Clio-197-Brake-Pads-Pin-Kit-(Front).html which is two sets.

You might want to give the discs a lick of paint on the mounting bell (NOT the disc itself!), the Renault versions of the same discs have black paint on them but are around £120.

Genuine Renault Disc's & Pads from Wolverhampton Renault are reduced at the moment. £182.24 for the lot and that included delivery when I looked.

Thank you very much. I have just ordered discs and pads. I had the pins out today. And came out really easy so cleaned them all up and placed them back in.

Could someone please tell me what size Allen key socket I need to order?

 

[joshK]

Its a 12mm Hex bit

 

[Duc916]

And believe it or not, a household radiator insert socket adaptor is the same size I found :-D - can get them at the local plumbers merchants
see this topic earlier also for a ap brake discount code :-D

Thats a result, the pins are usually a nightmare to get out if thet are not properly maintained.
