    I wonder if anyone can help with this. I have a low mileage MG6 diesel 1.9 2015 year in the UK. The front discs need replacement and previously these have been available, but now seem to be almost impossible to source. The front discs for the diesel are 296mm diameter I think, but appear to...

    Hi I'm looking for 282 brakes for my ZR105. Struggling to find a decent set near me but a nice set of Honda 282mm carriers are available I think these Honda 282s are the same as the 620ti calipers so my question is will ZS/ZR spec 282/262 calipers fit onto the Honda/620 carriers? I'm wanting...

    So - after a very (very) hard drive, I noticed upon arrival at the car park that the plumes of smoke emanating from my front wheels where an indication my brakes had practically caught fire. They are f course standard Rover 45 solid (apparently somewhat solid) discs on the front with Ferodo...

    Hi all , Been wondering if anyone on here could tell me how much difference to braking will fitting a brake brace make ? Today I used my phone to video the movement of the servo unit as I pressed on the brake , it does move a bit too. So thought I’d crack out the welding gear and make...

    I helped a chum change the front pads and discs (albeit slightly used ones)on my 04tf as I have no clue. And ever since I've got this knocking that started in the R/HS, seems to have moved to L/HS across the front of the car now. It's speed related but but after my lock related. Its not uniform...

    The performance of the brakes in my Rover 25 were noticeably poor, so I decided to check them. Firstly, I stripped, cleaned and inspected the pads on the front and shoes on the rear. All were well within specified thickness and didn't bind. I decided to renew the old brake fluid, but on...

    A reliable year for the ZS - so nothing to post on here for a while about it. But time for a service and the dreaded MOT. as well as the normal service, the brake discs were in a poor state, and attracted an advisory on last year's MOT so I decided to change them all, and change the pads and...

    Just got an MG ZS 180 and looking for a rear off side caliper in good condition as the current one has a seized cam which is causing the handbrake to stick. Need to get it through the MOT soon so rather than stripping it down I thought I'd check and see if anyone has a spare.

    my wife reported strange behavour of the car but i cant get it to do it. car is 1.8 auto 25. when shes slowing and the revs have dropped right off, the brake pedal seems to go far lower than usual and sometimes the abs cuts in. Took it to a garage and they said it was either the ecu or...

    1x set of Delphi Brake Shoes for rear Drums Bought these on Saturday, thinking my shoes needed replacing, but found out it was just the adjuster cable. My friend did try and fit one side, but took so long doing it, it got dark and I just said put the originals back on. So one pair has slight...

    As its dry today and the weekend looks to be wet Ive awarded myself a saturday on thursday. Main job of the day was swapping my brake hoses for nice shiny new stainless ones. Ive been pushing plusgas into the joints for a couple of days in prep, but came to undo them and even with a pipe...

    When braking lightly to a stop there is this annoying quite loud creaking sound as the front driverside wheel as it slowly rotates to a stop. With the wheel slowing rotating before the stop its, creak, creak, creak getting slower as the car comes to a stop. I had a guy look underneath with...

    Hi everyone, first thread! woop! Anyway, a few months ago i hit my r/o/s wheel and ended up bending the metal plate the drum bolts too. It got pulled out at the top by a few mm and i have countered it bt spacing the bottom out with washers. I was wondering how hard is it to charge it...

    Hi guys, Prob an easy one for a Monday morning! Last night driving on motorway I hit something on the road. Think it was like a wooden pallet or crate or something. Obv hit at 70+ mph.. Now when I brake I get a lot of juddering in the steering wheel. Whats the prob? I'm guessing the wheel...

    I have a rover 25 facelift, and like all the solid setups, the front brakes are rather susceptible to heat fade, and are generally about as useful as a kick in the teeth. As far as I can make out from on here, 282mm discs won't fit under 15" rims, so I'm guessing my best choice would be the 262...
