dot3 & 4 absorb water over time but provide better boiling points iirc. dot 5 doesn't absorb water but has a lower boiling point.
Basically use dot4 superblue and change more often. (2 years)

Are you going for a bigger disc, or a direct replacement? They've seen better days haven't they...
Just standard size groved discs. The last week or so there's been a burning smell
James where did you get the forge power steering fluid cap from?
Hahaha, they've done some work mate!
As far as I can tell these are the original discs so that's 71k. Probably about 5k to many though
Thats bloody good going matey!As far as I can tell these are the original discs so that's 71k. Probably about 5k to many though
If memory serves me correctly, its a cap for the Ibiza (Mk3), which sits over the green cap as a billet cap cover. I couldn't find one anywhere for the Leon, so took a punt with this one and it's perfect - gives a snug fit and allows the cap to remain functional. I got it off eBay but it was so long ago that I don't have a link. I've looked on Forge and eBay and I can't find one anywhere???

Yeah good old hammerite the back plates where very rusty and one know has a hole in so I'll get some replacements at some point.
I got the pads on eBay 15.41 delivered this is the item number 330690290160
Thanks Ill try and track one down. It's the power steering fluid cap isn't it not the brake fluid?
They're 2500 but I'll be trying the 3000 next time. Have you ordered the 3000 yet?
They're 330mm two piece discs http://www.godspeedbrakes.co.uk/~godspeed/product.php?id_product=82

Ah nice one mate
Do you need anything else to do the 2 piece upgrade? That price seems lower than the 2 piece setup from Bill iirc...?
Keeping my eye on how you get on with these
I've also ordered the caliper spacer brackets from Bill that you need for them to fit.
They seem good quality but Godspeeds dispatch time isn't great! Hopefully I'll get chance to fit the in a couple of weeks so I tell you what they feel like.
