My mate fitted new rear discs and pads to my old Cayenne that was under extended warranty and when he took them off the pads were Pagid anyway.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

The time is fast approaching. I will be needing discs and pads all round but I am having trouble finding the part numbers for the OEM Sport pads. Does anyone know where I can find them? I am correct in thinking that the part numbers for the front discs are 99735140501 / 99735140601 and for the rear are 99735240502 /99735240602? I am trying to sort out the pads and discs on my own as I think the last time they were all changed cost around 3k Euros Never again. Will I also need four new pad sensors? And before anyone asks, yes, I have the extended warranty so I have to use the chocolate discs. Thanks.

POST 2Original post

Hi mate.. Worth looking on ebay. I believer 9-apart (old Porsche-apart) advertise genuine Porsche discs and pads on there for better than you'd get from your OPC they may even give you a bit more off if buying all 4. Consider Pagid too which are OEM discs and pads they a lot cheaper from people like Euro car parts and trust me when renewing your warranty they wont take the discs and pads off to check. My mate fitted new rear discs and pads to my old Cayenne that was under extended warranty and when he took them off the pads were Pagid anyway. On my old Turbo I considered the Brembo Sport pads too but sold the car little later so never got round to doing it..be interested what people think of them. Lastly yes you need 4 sensors but these are pretty cheap about a tenner each max I think.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
