Hi all this is my first post on here just updated from a fl1, just wondered what people's take on pads was, I have seen some ebc pads but have always used mintex before anyone used these ? Thanks

Welcome to the forum. Although I cant recommend anything, please use the search tool - pads have been covered and discussed many times.  FL2 TD4 GS 60 reg Facelift - so many issues
2019 DS. Terribly unreliable.
Sold DS for a 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Fingers crossed....
Sold Outlander for a 2014 SD4 SE Tech because I’m mental
Now greatly regret selling the Outlander. MPG of the FL2 is atrocious and so are the fuel bills. Fun though 😎
Couldn’t afford the fuel bills so back to an older Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Significantly better than I remembered it to be…

I have fitted 1000s of ebc pads on motor bikes they where ok 👍

I fitted EBC pads to my motorbike after a recomendation from my friend who works in a Lotus specialist - they used them all the time, replacing the originals that had covered about 12,500 miles. They lasted just 2,500 miles and my brake disc. I bought from Ebay and my friend reckons theres lots of countereit ones about so all I can say is if you are thinking of using them, buy from a trusted source, not off Ebay. I have Mintex on my FL2. Oh, and be careful when fitting the rears. See my last post in this topic http://www.freel2.com/forum/topic15628.html

I changed discs and pads with Pagid from ECP they have offers on all the time.

Thanks all for your input very much appreciated loving my fl2 I must say and if I fit ebc I will get the. From source

I've just fitted new discs and pads, I went for delphi as they are oem quality and I got them from island 4x4 who I've always used because of their excellent service.

In case anyone is interested I have today replaced the front discs and pads on my wife's Peugeot 207. The front discs were very "lipped" and likely to fail the next MOT. The car has done 41k miles and I last changed the pads in 2011 at 24k miles as they were getting a bit thin (the discs were OK at the time). However the pads I removed today were from Halfords and they had barely worn after 17k miles yet the discs were seriously down which must say something about the hardness of the Halfords pads (or the relative softness of Peugeot discs). I replaced with Pagid components. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto

I really rate Pagid stuff. I used to have a 911 and always used Pagid discs and pads. Never had a problem.

yeah I rate them too - got Pagid disks on my 330D Jules

For the 911? From design911.com

If you mean what disks / pads for the FL2, just go to the eurocarparts site and put your reg number in.

Yes LR2.

So whats the bite like on these?

Haven't used them on the FL2 yet but certainly had no complaints previously

Still on original pads, 3 plus years 35000 miles not 50 % worn
