These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Looking at changing my front disc's and pads in the near future, just looking to see what the brand to go for? the car is out of OPC warranty, therefore not tied into a OEM brand. also if i buy myself (can get discount through my works) would most Indie's be happy to fit ? thanks

Pagid's ? also would a indie be happy to fit if i supply?

POST 5Original post

The reason performance pads are noisier is that an anti-squeal compound used in the construction of road pads that softens the material. Performance pads have less of that compound and can squeal like an absolute b d until they're really hot, especially race pads. Not a lot of people know that. Indeed I didn't until I talked to a bloke who made race pads for a living and asked the question ...and Pagids from ECP work out nice and cheap if you can time it when they have an extra 15% off (subscribe to their mailing list. The 50% this is a DFS job in that it's always on). They work fine.

POST 6Original post

Anyone can change discs and pads if you don't fancy it yourself, even Kwik-Fit. Need to check each place regarding supplying your own parts.

POST 7Original post

I've used 2 indy's and they are happy to fit parts I supply. They do this as they are a bit more relaxed about it than others but also because I have a relationship with them. You will find plenty of indys and regular garages who won't fit parts you supply. As for what brakes, if you have been happy with the standard set up and have no desire for more then stick to an OE set up.
