I took a look at the rear pads

I took a look at the rear pads on my Boxer last night and as suspected the're just about gone. Also, the ones in the front could use replacing; you know once you're there might as well do it all including a fluid change.

I probably will call T Rutlands tomorrow and order a set but just wondered if the pads were generic to say Porsche or something like that?

Hi Drew,

I'm doing rear

Hi Drew,

I'm doing rear brakes as well, currently on my BB. The pads are indeed common...just can't remember which Porsche/BMW they fit. I got a set of Ferrodos from Rutlands...$60, or so. I've used them in the past...and they seem to be "rotor friendly". As to the flush and bleed..a great idea, although a bit of a pain on the BB due to the dual same-side diagonal brake lines. Figure on at least a quart of brake fluid to really get the fluid clean...

Regards,
David

Yea, I'm going to call Rut

Yea, I'm going to call Rutlands as soon as I get done typing this.

The bleding is a little bit of a pain given the two bleed points. However nothing was as bad as my Daytona that had 3 bleed points per caliber. At that point you were wishing Sam's carried Casterol LMA.

I think I have some NOS Repco

I think I have some NOS Repco "Metal Masters" pads for Boxers F&R if anyone is interested.

If I don't (pretty sure I do) then AW CAR Parts (Frankie) might be a better choice to purchase from.
