Thread: D3 brake rotors and pads where from?

job done over the weekend, did rear park brake shoes as well. They are a PITA.

Full day on Sat and about 3 hrs sunday. Did a fluid flush while I was at it.

You only learn 'the knack? after huge struggle then promptly forget 'the knack? by the next time you visit.

As a small reminder the braided steel flex brake hose kits are inexpensive and a great addition to the braking strength. I got the Britpart kit for the D3 which was really good. Changing these at same time as fluid is a good combo.

Been quite a long time since I have worked on the brakes so yes you do forget that knowledge.
I did consider replacing those flex hoses. Brit part though I am not a fan of generally.

I was shocked how good they were I think it's an external supplier rebranded

I did take a look at a vendor that sell those, seems to be more than just the 4 flex tails.
