Front brake Rotor 2023 R

[Lucas_R]

^ note that the green pad technically has a larger pad surface area because the edges are not chamfered and no centre line down the middle to greatly reduce the chance of squeeling and to help expel gas, water and dust. So for a street car where you want a quiet pad, the pads in the bottom picture would be the much better option.

Looking at the PR codes for my T-Roc R it list:
1LQ disc brakes front
2EF disc brakes rear

1LQ = 340mm Dia x 30mm width ventilated discs
2EF = 310mm Dia x 22mm width ventilated discs

Are those PR codes common across all VAG variants, or are the Tiguan specific ?

They are vehicle specific but many vehicles may have the same codes. Your build will have dozens of PR codes, ask your dealer for a printout of your "Vehicle Data".

My printout is 6 pages long of very small print.

Done that already, but my car came with different brakes (I fitted the 340/310 combo), so just curious if the PR codes are common

The codes for my Leon V are Front:1ZA & Rear:1KE.

It looks like the codes for Cupra are different, as the Formentor rotors are Rear:1LD & Front: either 1X0, 1X1, 1KD or 0N4

A few weeks back looking for rotors and pads for my 140 TSi Sport T-ROC I found thanks to Lucas_R 2 options for the front ceramic pads - P58147N (Acoustic Wear) and P85126N (Electronic Wear) ..... these wear indicators were the only difference noticed.

I'd hazard a guess that with the R that would be the difference also.

Can't get onto the brembo site to qualify
