Cupra Brake pad confusion

[mpm1987]

I just phoned up GSF, and asked them for a price on pads

they replied with theyre 2 types, and they only sell one type of them.

Im guessing that as im running the 4 Pot AP's im going to need the set they dont sell

where can I get new decent pads from??

Bill @ badger 5 - (sponsers section) does DS2500 for about £90 - 100.

But found the standards to be fine - aprox £80 odd quid from the dealers. Or try the clio V6 pad as theses are the same shape. - Held them against the 1:1 in the mintex catalogue

right, went to Seat today, and they tried to sell me the wrong pads, stupid *******s!
they have now ordered me some, apprantly the correct ones
They cost me £81 though!!

D'oh wish I saw this yesterday!

I work for GSF and we do sell them, I've told a few people on here before! £60.01 inc VAT for Mintex Extremes, part number TTMDB2207X. They're the same as the Clio V6, and if he puts "Cupra pad" into the search screen they pop up, but they say Cupra R 00-04 - Mintex's fault!

I suppose it takes an owner to know what fits and what doesn't, but I'm sure they cross ref from the OE number on our computers.

No just for the pads. Labour would have been double that probably. Got myself DS2500s anyway
