ZT190+ brakes

Geoff130 · 4th July 2017, 15:29

I recently bought a ZT190+ , I knew the wheels had been swapped so didn't pay much attention given the sale price. Checking later I found it came with 16" wheels on, I didn't think they would fit a 190 so checked the discs and found the standard ones. Were 190's ever fitted with the smaller diameter brakes or have mine been swapped out at some point.

It also has a level sensor on the rear axle, headlamp power wash and no headlamp adjuster on the switch pack but projector headlamps not Xeons. Is that a normal configuration too?

No to both, 190 all had the 325mm front discs, and it you have level sensors then you should have Xenon's fitted

Have to agree, check the VIN number here, see what it comes up with re HP.

I've already been there, I was beginning to worry.

Sounds as though an owner along the way has probably sold the lights and put normal halogen lights on. Same with the brake discs, or he got the wrong ones, but I don't think that the calipers would fit with the smaller discs.Someone will be along shortly to give you the giff.

My advise would be to check all the main vins match on the car.
