Are they different?

I know the caliper design changed slightly for the Cupra R but both use the 345mm discs. Eurocarparts list two different BRAKE PAD part numbers for the 345mm discs so which ones do I need? Does anyone have the sizes of the Cupra R pads? Width,Length Thickness?

They are both PAGID pads but with different measurements:


Part number : 101441168

Brake System Teves Height [mm] 72,9
Height 1 [mm] 72,9 Height 2 [mm] 72,9
Thickness [mm] 20,4 Warning Contact Length [mm] 175
Wear Warning Contact With integrated wear sensor Width 1 [mm] 156,3
Width 2 [mm] 155,1 WVA Number 23801

Part number : 101441188

Brake System ATE Height [mm] 72,8
Inspection Tag E1 90R-011060/934 Number of Wear Indicators 1
Thickness [mm] 20,4 Warning Contact Length [mm] 175
Wear Warning Contact Incl. wear warning contact Width [mm] 155,1

Can you get the euro site to bring up pictures to compare? do you know the type of brake system fitted to your car? ie teves or ate.

No idea mate I can't see any stamps on the brakes or anything.

I bought them separate for my car, they are the newer style 345mm brakes and my FR only has some 312mm brakes. They are direct replacement but I just want some new pads but I don't know which ones to get...

Facelift Cupra and Cupra R brakes are the same. They were just updated from the Pre Facelift to Facelift on the Cupra

Which brakes do you have on your car? Pre Facelift or Facelift?

Well they are not on the car yet, but the facelift ones. Eurocarparts list two different pads for these brakes.... The older R32 ones have part numbers 101441168 which is the Teves ones... but a 2011 Audi S3 has the other part number with the ATE brakes... are the facelift the same as the S3 brakes?

The calipers on the pre FL and FL Cupra did differ slightly. The part numbers for a FL Cupra caliper and a 2011 S3 are the same apart from the Manufacturer code at the start. The brake pads for a FL Cupra and a 2011 S3 share the same part number, 8J0 698 151F. The pads for a pre FL Cupra have a different part number.

Mintex used to have a download on their site that listed detailed applications and measurements of all their pads. It seems to be down at the moment. The brake code for the FL Cupra is PR-1LB.

Hope this helps.

Thankyou Tim, that is the information I needed! So I shall order the S3 ones and they should be the correct ones. There is only one listed for the S3. Thanks :)
