    The low pad sensor warning has recently illuminated on my 2004 Passat 130 TDi Highline, the front discs also look heavily ridged and due for replacement.

    After looking on the Eurocarparts website, they only appear to list one type of brake disk whereas GSF list three different options. Does anyone know the part number for my particular model and are there three different sizes of disk? I would like to replace them with a quality brand equivalent to the genuine discs.

    Many thanks,

    Pete

    The vendor will have that information on their system... all they need is your Reg.

    If you want to replace them with a better than OEM option, i'd suggest Drilled, vented and grooved disc's. I think the OEM are just vented.

    Give GSF a call and they will tell you which ones will fit.

    Also why not give one of our site sponsers a try?

    I can personally reccomend All German Car Parts.

    Hope that helps
