Brake Disc recommendations......

Lynyrd Skynner · 29th August 2017, 12:28

Hi All , I need to replace the front disc's on the ZT-T DIESEL , had a look on the bay but there are lots for sale varying prices so not sure where to buy from , I am after standard disc's not drilled type stuff so can anyone point me in the right direction for good quality and a good price.....

Cheers .

I think the consensus from other recent threads on this subject is that you can't go far wrong with Pagid, and they were recommended to me by the guy at Austin Garages who is an expert on our cars. I've recently bought a set for my pending 190 conversion - not fitted them yet but they look very good quality. Check prices carefully on line, e.g. Euro Car Parts do them, but so do Car Parts for Less (part of ECP) at a lower price.

Just fitted discs and pads to the front and I have the rears in the garage awaiting a nice day , nice and easy to fit and after 300 miles nothing wrong with them , got mine from ecp using the 36% discount that was on offer at the time

Can't go far wrong with pagid , fitted them to all 3 of my 75s and never had any problems .

Put Pagid on my van 20k ago, no problems and still going strong even with the abuse they get.

eurocarparts have a 37% off sale at the moment. Just ordered a full set of front and rear Brembo discs from there yesterday, would have been £150 but got them for £100.

I've had 1 bad experience with pagid.... On my 300c. Nothing would stop the squeal.. nothing, the pads were like lumps of coal. Apparently some mercs suffer also.

Eicher has come along since they stopped sourcing in India. Currently on the OHs mg6 ... Exact same parts as a 75 - nothing bad to report for a standard replacement.

Can do you a full set of Unipart discs, pads and pad wear sensors for £90 (fitting not included)
