Guys

Looking to replace my rear discs and pads on my 2002 1.4hdi LX.

I see there are two types apparently, one with the bearing pressed into the disc center?

Can anyone tell me if this is likley on mine?

Lastly, does the handbrake act on the rear pads, or is there a separate set of shoes running on the inside of the disc?

Many thanks

David

dscs and pads changed all round in both my 02 1.4hdi and 04 1.4hdi , just ordinary discs , would think you are the same, no extra pads for handbrake must just work of normal pads at the back.
the 04 model got discs and pads all round today , it also got oil filter , fuel filter , driveshaft seal ,change of oil , strutt bearing ,air filter and front left ball joint.
(no money left for beer thats why i`m on here at 10.30 on a saturday night :lol: )
discs and pads all round £100
fuel filter £19.09
oil filter £9
oil 5w 40 £24
ball joint £9
driveshaft seal £10
strutt bearing £23.50
air filter £8

labour £140

Hi Betty - AGAIN!

Thanks for answering all my questions on here!

I see that diss and pads are on ebay for abouy £32 delivered for the rear, so thats not a bad deal - will check Eurocar parts through as they are usually on the money.

I wonder ifthe later cars had the bearing in the disc/hub - that *would* be a pain.

At least if these are std discs it should be a 40min job tops.

Many thanks for the advice.

Agreed Martin, its really another example of how car manufacturers are making assembly cheaper and easier, with no regard to the cost of future maintenance.... I mean, std rear discs are so cheap, and age old technology... I guess it must save them time during production line assembly.

Anyway - oil - what do you use? I see the grade listed, but wonder if you buy a diesel specific oil, or just a good quality "normal" fully or semi synthetic?

I see many oils now say ok for petrol or "light diesel" which the 1.4 HDI I would say falls into that category... plus, its a modern engine.
