Title: Are ED 30 brake pads same size as normal GTi
Post by: wagonboy on September 26, 2013, 04:08:18 pm

As post states, are the replacement brake pads the same size for the ED30  as a GTI....the front and the rear.
Confirmation would be most helpful, thanks.

99.9% sure, yes.
I know the caliper & carriers changed on the rear, late Mk5/Mk6 to Bosch ones; heavier and no increase in piston size... but pads remained the same size.
