Was wondering if anyone has ordered from this website for parts? Seems to be one of the few places I can locate them. Haven’t checked MB, figured they will be more expensive then getting from somewhere else.

Thanks!

Thanks, the one day I looked it came up empty for some reason.

Jwight have you used parts from this company before? Just wondering.

I haven't had to replace brakes up to this point, but I'm getting close.

I’ll let you know how it goes. I’ve had a few emails with the company so far.

Jwight, did the brakes today. Went smooth overall and the parts worked great. The entire process was easy, sent them an email, they asked for vin number to confirm the parts. They sent me an invoice through PayPal and I paid. Had the parts within 5 days. I ordered directly from them and not through Amazon.

Rotor and Brake Pad Replacement

Hello. I received a RIDICULOUS quote from my dealer for the replacement of rotors and pads. I think I want to tackle the job myself with help from a friend. Do you know of a how-to video or article to which I can refer? Thanks in advance.

I’ve done brakes before but did find a video on you tube to see if there were any tricky parts, special tools etc. but wasn’t. The pads and rotors I bought have working great. One thing that was frustrating was getting the clip back onto the caliper. Finally when I did the second side realized if I mounted the caliper first it was a lot easier to put the clip on.

Hi, I am looking to replace the front brakes on my 2016 passion with the 4 lug setup. I am having trouble finding the parts, can anyone help? The parts in the amazon link didn’t seem to match up exact. Thanks!!

did you try the link to partsgeek.com??

https://www.partsgeek.com/catalog/20...e_pad_set.html

 

[Justin Golden]

Yes, my pads are the longer ones, I believe the pads in that link are for the 3 lug setup.

 

[jimvw57]

Rockauto.com lists a different pad number when comparing the 2016 to a 2011, maybe give them a call if you want to be sure .

https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog...rged,3365407,brake+&+wheel+hub,brake+pad,1684

sometimes they use a generic picture that may not match the part exactly. A phone call will make sure the parts are right (unless their listing is wrong)

For 2016 Smart Fortwo Front eLine Plain Brake Rotors + Ceramic Brake Pads https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CB317XZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_SoQ6CbPPMVW7J


I think I am going to try these, it shows it fits the passion. I think that is the problem, a lot of the sources don’t have the sub model selection and the brake design changes.

Looks like the same setup I purchased for my 2016 Smart except I did get the rotors with the grooved slots in them. So far working well. Maybe it’s in my head but I think the car stops better then it did with the stock brakes.

Since the Rock Auto brake pads are out of stock. O Reilly’s auto stores carries them, for $66.00.
