Me in Halfords with x2 axle stands, trolley jack, oil filter and some other bits. Till operator didn't scan the trolley jack. Completely missed it. How? I don't know.

Me: "Thanks very much"

Why did Halfords give you the wrong pads? There's a booklet on the shelves near the brake components and every section of halfords listing all vehicles and the corresponding part number which you then pick.


Possibly because different models of the same car have different brake pads. Often several suppliers of calipers and random luck as to which you get. Or if you are unlucky you get the calipers from a different model, probably due to a tempory shortage in the factory, which is a pain when they are from the diesel version of the car that was never imported to the UK.

All the best
