Headerss Posted May 27, 2006 Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 Hi, I saw a few posts back that somebody has cross drilled discs on his B7. My car (B6, 2.4) is going in to the dealers in a few days time, and im curious if anybody knows the relevant part numbers as the sole agent here is a real wa**er!! Would really appreciate it.

Nelson_R32 Posted May 27, 2006 Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 It all depends on whether your vehicle has the same Calipers as the 2.0T. Look in the first page of your Service book and if one of the codes in the book is '1LA' then you'll be able to fit drilled discs. If its 1LZ, 1LB, 1LE, 1LT, 1LF, or 1LJ then they wno't fit your car. Part number anyway is 8E0615301AE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headerss Posted May 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 Ok, i checked my service booklet and found the following: LY7R/LY7R N1H/LE 1KD 1LT. So it seems the news is bad eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headerss Posted May 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 I have driven the car 10,000 miles in 14 months,and the brakes havent lit up yet, but the agency here just always says that the discs need to be replaced, so in case if required, i thought that i would upgrade to the cross drilled.

Scotty Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 Save you're money. Cross drilled are generally for looks. They'll clog up and have a higher chance of warping and cracking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
