RAPgolfvr6182 2 Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 always seems to be me bought some brembo disks for the rear of the golf the other day. opended the box to find what looked like new disks one looks like its been fitted to a car n returned boxed up to gsf the wheel bearing rocks around in housing and the front of the disk is all scratched up from a brake pad not happy at all. so got to wait now n buy another disk wheel bearing n abs ring as its no good. Not happy one bit with the service from them. Link to post Share on other sites

The Monk 50 Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 Take them back and exchange them.I've always been able to take back damaged or faulty items or exchange them.Chances are that the brake discs were bought in error and exchanged anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
VR6-DUB 3 Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 Last week i bought a thermostat housing from gsf not a very good fit, the 3 holes where the yellow, brown and blue sensors fit in, leaked very badly because of a crap build, and bought a genuine one from vw a little more expensive but the housing was perfect no leaks etc. Link to post Share on other sites
