    Porka callipers - disc issue - help please

    Have these callipers to go on

    996 351 425 - 20 70 58 04

    996 351 426 - 20 70 68 03

    Bought A8 323 size discs which are too wide as in fat for the pads I have in?

    confused?

    Is this the right disc or are the pads wrong or am i just going mad... and yes the psitons are completely pressed in..

    Help please

    Thanks all

    You need to file of about 1mm off the four pegs on the callipers

        The stainless pins that the pads "sit on".
        Make sure that the pistons are all the way back in or you will struggle.

          I see ...

          when you sit on ...

          There are 2 plates with a spacer type thing that sits inside the piston top stop squeeking.

          I can see by shaving 1mm of the bottom of each I will get a bit more clearance?

          I only have 1 peg that as such holds the pads in place .. will post a pic later.

          Am on the right track here?

            If it's the pads then you haven't pushed them back far enough.

            If it's the stainless pegs then you grind them.

              Its the pads.

              They came with the disc set up I had so maybe too thick ..

              The pistons are pushed all the way back!
