Supply Problem, Ferodo Premier Rear Pads.

[Dave76]

I haven't been able to find anyone in UK selling ferodo premier rear pads, anyone bought any recently or know of anywhere. Anyone found a quiet alternative, apart from Lexus?

I know I can get from US but font wanna do that yet.

I can ring local motorfactors and find out tomorrow - cost me about £34 about 5 weeks ago

They are best alternative in my experience - Mintex and Pagid both cause groans when stopping

sorry just re-read your post - I bought front ones - I take it these are for a Mark 4?

Opie Oils are still advertising Ferodo rear pads for the Mk2 and 3 ,but not for the Mk4 .

FERODO Premier brake pads Reference FDB1684 - Rear Axle - Set (for 2 wheels)

£41.04 inc VAT

Worked ok for me when I searched Opie Oils, and he posted today about 25% off everything, possibly with 10% club discount as well?

Thanks for that Mike, I have a slow connection maybe thats why I had probs with the opie site, I'll do a cybercafe hour & get sorted there, thanks

You're welcome Dave, though I hadn't seen your post about being a 95 model, as we were posting almost at the same time.

I've just searched again though, and they list rear pads as the same for your car and mine (1999 MK IV ).

They also mention the 25% off on the opening page.

I'd be inclined to give them a ring, as I've found them very knowledgeable and helpful in the past where there was any doubt about compatibility.

Good luck.
