Brake Discs

[Dalbir]

Hi, my TDi is going in for a service next week (non stealers). I usually buy the PD oil & filter from GSF and only pay for the labour charges.

 

However this time I intend to have the fuel filter and front brake discs changed.

 

Would the quality of these parts be ok to use on my 2001 PD 115tdi, or should I bite the bullit and use the stealers. I intend to purchase the more expensive discs from GSF as a mater of caution.

 

Also my front brake pads are virtually "as new" as I cover very low miles. Do have to change these at the same time or can the existing ones be used.

 

Many thanks for any advise offered

 

 

Regards

why use OEM parts and non-dealer labour?

 

I'd go to a local garage and have a better job done with up to spec parts for a cheaper price.

 

change the disks=change the pads.

(you can do this yourself it really is very very easy.)

 

 

you should change bits if and when they need them.

modern oil filters will last 30000+, Modern oil can last just as long if doing moterway driving

fuel filters as per schedule.

 

you could:

 

change oil,

keep the oil fliter

change fuel filter (massive performance difference if overdue)

change air filter (if required)

Change disks

change pads.

service the bugger yourself and save heaps
