1K0615424P rear caliper... Is it Bosch? TRW? ATE?

[Bazgti]

Evening all,

I finally received the health check today from my service on Tuesday and it seems that my off side rear caliper has seized. Does anyone know the price of new?

Also I'm looking at some brembo oem style discs and pads. Has anyone had any experiences with them? Or anything like? Or am I best just sticking with new OEM in your opinion's?


Thanks

Just buy a second hand caliper from Ebay and buy OEM/cheaper discs and good pads.

That was what I was thinking of doing. There's a few on the bay but I was just wondering the price on new to compare. Bit impatient to wait until tomorrow to ring the dealer. Again that was my idea but I reckon a decent set of branded would work out cheaper than buying oem discs

Now you would need your PR code inside your service book for which rear brake type you have fitted!

By that reply... Am i correct to think that there are different versions of the caliper?

[doylebros]

Yes.

[Bazgti]

Are the visually different? Its just ive sourced one off ebay and need to check the correct fitment

Thanks
 
Reckon ive jus bagged a bargain too. Jus got front brembo discs n pads for £90 with a bit a haggling. Substantially cheaper than buying OEM from the dealer

Can be either ATE or Bosch but I can't tell you the differences however,the ATE caliper will have those letters stamped into the body.

There may be another member who know more on this!

[Bazgti]

Can anyone confirm the difference of the 2 calipers? It's just I've sourced a new one and I don't want to buy the wrong one.

Thanks

I really don't think it matters.

I've just recently put one on my 06 GTI and I put a TRW one on, came Red already too

My 05 Gti has a TRW rear caliper.
