  • 77TSI Brake Rotor & Pad Part Numbers?

    First time on the forums in 6 months, amazing to see we're not the only ones with a peice of **** lemon Polo. Faulty coilpacks, fuel rattle, getting towed to dealers multiple times, etc!

    Anyway latest issue which is all too common here is the Polo's brakes are buggered at less than 35,000km's. I'm not going back to VW to have them replaced with the OEM rubbish and repeat in 12-18mths but before I can try something else, need to know what I'm ordering.

    For a 2010 Polo 6R, ETKA says the front rotors part number is 6R0 615 301 A but 288x25mm. This isn't right as the 6R 77TSI has 256x22mm front and 230x9mm rear to the best of my knowledge? To further confuse things, googling that part number gives products in both 288x25mm and 256x22mm.

    It's a rather large difference so I'm doing something wrong. The best I could find here was someone who'd bought HPX pads and RDA rotors. Searching those items gives me the right size, 256x22mm but not the correlating OEM part numbers.

    Pads:
    DB1405HPX
    DB1192HPX
    Rotors:
    RDA7196S
    RDA7199S
    Anyone able to fill in the blanks and tell me what the OEM part numbers are?

      Cant recommend the Remsa pads enough as a high quality aftermarket street pad. Much lower wear than the stock pads and also much lower brake dust.

        So just like most forum members, ETKA thinks all 6R Polos are GTIs

            Full set for my Golf was about $220 from memory. Polo might be a bit cheaper due to smaller pads. GSL Rallysport (sponsor on this forum) sell them if your interested in getting a quote. See link here for info on the Remsa pads: http://www.vwwatercooled.com/forums/...eek-78602.html

              Ahh, I was doing it wrong. The non A part number (for me at least) doesn't list a rotor size in ETKA, it was blank. So wasn't sure if that was the right thing. I Should be able to work out the pad part number now, thanks.
