GUIDE: Mk2 Leon Brakes - Info, Upgrades, and Maintanance.

[Billyrussell]

I bet you guy no one can find the brake pads for my seat Leon. It's Jon jays old car and I'm after a link to what pads I need! Cheers if anyone can help please

My pre-FL TDi FR has 255mm on the rear. If unsure. Ring up places like Euro Car parts or GSF and they should be able to say.

Please do not go down that road - Eurocarparts registration check is totally useless when it comes to brakes.

Anyone find ate high
Performance big brake kit pads ?

New brake disc/pads

Hi all,
I need to replace me brake discs and pads on my Leon 2.0 TDI,
I'm thinking that I will keep the standard vented front and solid read discs, and spend a little more on brake pads what manufacturer should I look at getting?

 

[JoonasFr]

Is there any difference between pre fl/fl cupra 345mm front brake discs and pads? I have 2010 fl cupra.

 

[Kristiano79]

Afternoon all, I am needing discs and pads for my 2006 (56) Leon FR TDI.

Am I right in saying they are 312 front and 256mm rear?

Cheers Kris

Are the rear calipers on the mk2 cupra the same as just the tfsi models?

Also is their any others cars they share them with

 

[Steede]

For upgrading from a mk2 fr tfsi to cupra brakes is it a matter of just changing the calipers and disks and that's it or is there any additional parts that need changing

Before I place an order, can anyone confirm for definite that the following is correct please?

Mk2 Leon FR170 MY2011

Front:
312x25 V

Rear:
255x12 S

Dan.

 

[BBoy82]

I'm happy that the fronts are correct, but I can't seem to find 255x12 rears for the mkV platform. Only 255x10:

 

[BBoy82]

I've just spotted my mistake...

They're 255x10 or 286x12.

What front breake carriers are required to upgrade my current 288 setup on my 2.0tdi to 312mm setup.
Cheers

Rear Calipers

Hi I have a seat leon 2 TFSI 55 reg vehicle is 1P1 engine BWA.
I am after a set of rear calipers but the motor part computers show a caliper PR code 1 KD which looks nothing like the part.One site told me the axle code is on the production sticker in the service handbook They are as follows:=
X2B BON D66 GOK 1AT BGU
JOL C7Q HKB 1GB 1NL
BYL BL3 BRM BBK BWD BTD
22Q
2B2 55J 5RU QBO
OGG G51

Can someone help me to identify and locate a stockist please. I think the PR Code should be 1KZ
I have 286 x 12mm solid discs.l

Hi,

I have tried removing the rear discs on my seat leon 1.4 tsi today in accordance with some guides i have found on here etc. It says the disc should just come out without removing the carrier, but for all the angling i did it just wouldn't come out. Am i doing something wrong or do i need to remove the calliper carrier? If so what size is the spline socket as i don't have these and any ideas what shops sell these?

Thanks

 

[UltraObamaX]

I have 170bhp tdi and got the PR-1KZ pads, but they don't fit. Any ideas?

Hello!

I'm not so shure that rear discs for FR Diesel are 286 mm
A asked a mechanic to look in the system (ETKA) for my serial number and we find out that rear discs are only 255mm, as the common 140 CP diesel.

Moreover, I looked on the street and to other friends with FR diesel and they have the same dimensions too, for the rear discs, only 255.
Also, its a clear difference between my rear FR diesel discs and my brother Cupra rear discs, both cars being stock.

Please can anyone check his FR diesel rear discs and reply ?
Thanks a lot!!!

My 2009 CR170 FR has 253/255mm rear discs and the same "38 Lucas/TRW" calipers as the 1.9 TDI.
