Title: Cars done
Post by: ben1.8T on 16 February 2009, 15:22

Rang my mum cars all sorted 2 new wheel bearings fitted and the moron that fitted the brake pads last didnt secure the clip that holds the pads in so they was rattling around in the callipers thats the noise I could hear.  :angry:

Said the rear discs will need replacing at some point good chance to upgrade them? Any ideas?  :smiley:

Any idea how much they work out? Was thinking off getting some grooved rear discs and just getting bigger front brakes? Not sure on what though?
