**URGENT** Brembo Fitting - Help! :o(

garage just called me saying that the bolts for the calipers are different

The bolts need to have 2 dimensions, a thicker thread that goes into a thinner thread< does anybody know about this?

These arent that standard brembos, by the looks of things, they are the glossy black ones you see on ebay. i've called the seller and hes no help. WINNER - 2009 Best in Class Range Rover Sport Award

Adam, if you want to a quick answer it might also be worth posting this on D3 - they tend to be a bit more mechanically minded than us

Short of that, give Paul King, the service manager at CHPR a ring?

There are quite a few different types of Brembo calliper for RRS and RR. Another forum member purchased some (perhaps he'll come forward ) from an ebayer seller and they didn't fit either. It would seem that they are very specific to the model year and even sub-changes within model years.

To be fair to Paul King he won't know.
