My car is a jap import, and the parts people at my local Toyota dealer (Sunderland) are being arsey about it.
My front pads need replacing and the dealer says they are different to UK cars.
Is this right? What difference? Size? Shape? Material?
Just need to get some in a hurry.
Anybody got a part number/price and can confirm if I can get pads intended for Uk, please ?
Thanks in advance
Possibly the material, but as all '2's are made in a Japanese factory I would doubt there is any difference at all TBH s:? :? s:?
Just had my front pads replaced on my MRs I asked how long it would be for them to get them in & they said no prob we have them in stock so I would imagine the are the same as UK spec
Pete s:o :o s:o
TRD pads (and most/all aftermarket pads) are same for Japan/EU/UK/USA, so I can't see any reason why the stock pads would be different...
Thanks fellas.
I have the manual which doesn't show anything except one design of pad.
Discs look pretty shot too (this is my daughter's late '99 car).
Will order them tomorrow from the Glasgow dealer, as I work up there - those guys are real friendly and have helped me get loads of stuff, compared to this little hitler at the Sunderland dealer, whose attitude suggests he thinks an import is something to be scraped off the bottom of his shoe.....
