I wouldn't expect major differences. All these are fabricated locally by an external provider of Hel/Goodridge under their specifications of course. If I got a picture of the shop that delivered mine I'd be surprised if anyone would trust them for their brakes. :giggle:

Then i will go with Hell then, will order them tonight. Thanks by the way did you code your abs when you did the retrofit.

Yes I did. According to the excel file I sent before. You have to let the car know that you changed the calipers to get the most out of them and be safe.
yeah i read the excel and also check on my car with vcds and its only byte4 that you have to change so its know that you have 370mm disc
370mm (PR. 1ZT, FC1, 05A, 05I), mine says there according to the excel 340mm (PR. 1LD, 1LM, 1LG, 1LA)

It's been a few years now and I don't remember exactly. I think only the mirror byte is changed. Give it a look at Ross-Tech forum to be sure.

Have checked my 2018 Cupra R with 370 mm discs / 4 pot Brembo with OBDEleven.

Byte 4 =C4. Byte 17=23. From what I have read in the "www" both codes must be changed before saving. As my car was delivered with it i haven't don it my self!

Thanks correct need to change both of these byte. I will when i mount the brakes and I will let know here on the forum how it went.

I doubt you'd be able to 'code' these rear discs - as they have never been fitted to an MQB car.
The 356 rear disc is form the RS6!
