Going to change rear discs on my 07. Haynes manual says to replace caliper bolts is it really necessary to use new ones? If so has anybody got the part number? And while I am at it should I change the handbrake shoes as well?

Thanks

I used Locktite threadlock on the original bolts. Worked for me..... 10MY (Sept 09) TD4 HSE Auto in Stornoway Grey (Now Gone)

Hi

Yes I read that probably will as saves waiting for bolts to arrive.

Euro Carparts have Pagid or Brembo rear discs and pads at very good prices and the Pagid handbrake shoes are around £29 there. I did the fronts with Brembo at very decent prices. I also put Locktite ( blue ) on the caliper bolts. The pads had been changed previously and someone had done the same trick before , but had done it big time. We needed a breaker bar and a load of effort. 2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership

Had the discs and pads a while now thought better fit and make a bit of space.
