Morning all,
Today I was replacing front pads in my series 3 xr8 and found that the pads that I had (DB1353) as listed for au3 tickford didnt fit the calipers.Further inspection on the removed pads I found part no DB1375.Cross referencing this no. on the Bendix web site I found out that these pads fit au2/3 utes.Having just bought this vehicle and not being sure of its history I can only assume that theses calipers have been changed at one point OR where fitted as an upgrade(or downgrade) at time of purchase.Is there any kind people out there that maybe able to shed some light. |

What size diameter are your rotors? There were 2 brake packs available - standard is 287mm rotor and upgrade is 322mm. From memory the DB1353 is to suit the 322mm upgrade.
