| Brembo Brake Pad Replacement. | |
Hi Guys,
Has anyone downunder had their brake pads replaced? I have been trying to track down some part numbers online but can't seem to get anything that makes sense. I have dynamic response fitted so have Brembos on the front. Went to the dealer in Perth sometime ago and nearly fell over when they told me the price to change them. I will change them myself but need to get some part numbers to order OS.
Any leads appreciated.
Cheers.....Wayne _________________ 2006 RRS TDV6, Java/Alpaca, Dynamic Response Pack, Tow Pack, Head and Tail light protectors, 20" Stormers, Roof Rails, S/C Grill and Side Vents, Tasmods. AutoLogic mod.

Wayne i had an original quote from the dealer on the service of $900 for all the lot, which i thought was pretty extortionate. I went back after 3 months (projected life of the pads) and they charged me 580, so make sure they are not totally taking the p155
Cheers

Thanks Jim sounds very similar. I must admit that was probably 4 months ago now and I haven't been back. I was talking to another guy who specialises in LR and JAG servicing in Perth who said that when the time came, I should have a look at ordering the bits direct from OS as the prices here in OZ are plain exorbitant. Just thought I would do some comparisons as I don't mind changing them myself.
Problem is I can't seem to get any part numbers. Looking at the Brembo and brake specialist sites they only seem to have part numbers for up to 2004 RR and not the Sport. I will send off a couple of emails today. Just thought someone might have tried it themselves. Monkey9952 posted a great how-to for pad and sensor replacements for his Brembo's, I will pm him to see if I can get some numbers.

Hey mate, how's it going.? Thanks for the numbers I have sent some emails off and will ring a couple of places tomorrow.
Great mate your car has obviously arrived or is it arriving this week? Once you get the new wheels on you need to post some photos. I bet you can hardly wait.
I am still offshore at the moment but will be back in Perth on the 9th April. I'll pop down and check the beast out on the Friday.
Thanks again for the numbers.
