Which brake pads

Post by scirocco-monkey »

Another simple question for you all. I got a Scirocco MK2 1.6GT F reg and it needs new pads but I keep seeing different sizes like 53B_V and 53B_U. Could anyone tell me which ones I need? Thanks dudes...Rich

If you use Euro car parts and pop your reg in it "should" tell you what ones are suitable.
I use this method and it has not let me down yet.

Go for the Pagid brake pads, I find them very good.

Might sound silly, but have you tried your local VW dealer?
