What's the deal with rear pads?

From GSF the ones they gave me for my sister's Pug 206CC (#N64109) are Â£14 (listed as Xsara). Proper Bendix branded pads.

the ones listed for the 19 16v (#R64605) are Â£26.50

Thinking the Pug ones looked similar I checked them against some old 19 16v ones and they are EXACTLY THE SAME.

What gives?

....same as 205/309 GTi

Lesson here is buy peugeot 206/205/309 bendix rear brake pads then and save some dosh.

the pug ones won't have the screw holes in the back of the outer pad.

So it's Â£12.50 extra for 4 little threaded holes?

Hmmm ok well those screws are usually missing on a 19, and the pug clearly doesn't need them anyway so bollocks to that I say, give me Pug pads!

I use the screw less ones as well.

is the lug on the back of the piston side?

Forum Moderator Joined: 18 Feb 2004 Posts: 7432

Yes, they have the lug iirc. Possibly on all 4 of the pads.

well you need to get busy with the file to get them to fit if all 4 have the lug

No need for the file, the pads fit on the carrier side with knobbly bit in place.

not on all calipers they don't.

theres more than 1 style.

Forum Moderator Joined: 18 Feb 2004 Posts: 7432

Bah. Well I'm OK on mine.

Besides, I'm not even sure they came with nobs on all 4, might have only been 2, can't remember. I'll probably go and buy another set tomorrow, I'll confirm then.

yeah do that for the site mofo, the site!

theres a dipped screw hole, a dipped no screw hole, these both use the big lead block as a damper for noise then the high sides screw hole and non screw hole that just use the rattle spring things

a bit liek the ph1 alloys, theres 2 types, 1 is heavier and has more meat to the casting

Forum Moderator Joined: 18 Feb 2004 Posts: 7432

Right, I've just bought another set of the Pug 206CC pads and I can confirm that they only have the nobs on 2 of the pads.

To sum up then, for rear pads from GSF on your 19 16Vs/clio 16Vs, don't get the ones listed, get

GSF part number N64109 @ Â£14+VAT

That's if you want to save yourself about Â£13
