Hi all Just got back from the garage where my car has failed the MOT on front and rear discs and pads, they quoted me £175 for the front and £275 for the rear, does that sound about right? Any help appreciated Cheers Tom
Are they replacing with Renault items? Ads on here sells them for; Front discs £103.94 ea Front pads £61.78 Rear discs £88.74 ea Rear pads 29.17
Sounds a bit light for OEM discs and pads all round , make sure theyre not fitting any old disc. As karl L states above but i think Renault recommend you replace the brake pins to the front which i think are £60 on top. Reckon it should be around £550 for the set all round.
I got front and rear drilled and grooved discs and pads for under. 300 and my pins came out without any issue
Mtec mate http://www.mtecbrakes.co.uk i u have any 225 model the rear brakes have the 25mm hub bearing if u have the r26 175 or r26r it's the 30mm really good for the money
Not a huge amount of point in comparing non-OEM and OEM prices really; of course there will be cheaper options... Personally I would replace with OEM, unless planning on regularly tracking, in which case I would look at suitable upgrades with better high-temperature performance. The upgraded stuff will invariably be more expensive than OEM, and both more expensive than non-OEM, but you get what you pay for...
i run cheap front disc brakes on mine now and that gets tracked often. 90 iirc for the front discs. 160 for rear
