Hi. MOT on Friday. It doesn't run out until a month's time, just getting in early as last year had advisory re pitting on front disks. Hardly used the car since the last MOT - just 2,000 miles, but I know the pitting gets worse if the car is idle. I'll probably go for Mintex disks and pads again - last lot fitted at 50,000 (replacing the originals). A2 now at 90,000.
This time the back plate/dust covers/stone guards/splash panel (take your pick should be changed as they are rather rusty. Has anyone any recommendations? The part number would provide reassurance I'm ordering the right bits. It's a 1.4 TDI 75 2004
I seen some on the web marked as aluminium - is there really a choice of steel or aluminium? Seen some Klokkerholm (a Danish company) at £12 each https://www.onlinecarparts.co.uk/ca...9/brake-disc-back-plate.html?criteria[100]=VL They are in-stock - many makes are not.
Also any recommendations about giving them some extra protection?
Thanks
Alan
