Sorry for posting wrong info. #-o
HDi 90 was never sold in Denmark, only the 110 model with the bigger brakes.

Ay up, Jim!


What you need is the code number from the caliper. This is cast into the brake pad retainer on the INSIDE, and hides behind the handbrake cable. However, if you've got it off the car, then access will be easy! You may need a wire brush to read the characters. Tell Bigg Red this casting number and you will get the right rubbers. This is what I did...
