TL;DR — Our picks for Skoda Octavia / Superb
Genuine Skoda (TRW / TMD branded) — full Skoda warranty.
TRW or Textar Epad Pro+ — OE supplier brand, OES box, typically 30–40% less than dealer.
Brembo Xtra coated discs + Pagid pads — long-life monsoon-spec upgrade.
Why brake choice matters on this car
Octavia uses 312 mm front vented discs (340 mm on 1.5 TSI L&K and Octavia vRS), Superb uses 340 mm front. Both use single-piston floating calipers on standard variants. OE pad supply is TRW or TMD Friction (Textar / Pagid) depending on batch.
Skoda owners typically keep cars 8–12 years — brake parts are a long-term decision. OE-supplier brands are the value pick over both dealer-boxed and no-name aftermarket.

Common pitfalls on Skoda Octavia / Superb
- Octavia vRS and 1.5 TSI L&K use 340 mm front discs (vs 312 mm standard) — confirm by chassis number, not trim badge.
- Pad-wear sensor (front only on most SKUs) must be replaced with pads.
- Octavia vRS has DCC adaptive damping that interacts with brake calibration — use OE-spec pads only to avoid feel changes.
- Avoid the cheapest aftermarket on these cars — Skoda owners notice OE-feel deviations more than most.
What we need to quote the right brakes
We do not dispatch any brake part without first verifying the chassis number against the manufacturer catalogue — this is how we make sure the part that leaves our warehouse is the correct one for your car.
VIN / Chassis NumberRequired
17-character VIN from the windshield base, driver-side door jamb or RC book. Required — variants of the same model can use different brake parts.
Make, Model & YearRequired
For example: Mercedes-Benz E 63 AMG (W212), 2014. Tells us which catalogue to check.
OE Part Number (if known)Bonus
Printed on the back-plate of the worn pad or on the disc edge — speeds up cross-reference and pricing.
Clear photo of the partBonus
A WhatsApp photo of the worn pad (back-plate side), disc edge and caliper helps confirm fitment for facelift / imported variants.
Every order is verified against your VIN / chassis number before dispatch, so a wrong-part shipment from our side is extremely rare. In the unlikely event that we ship a part that does not match the chassis number you shared, we will replace it at our cost. The only case where a return is not accepted is if the chassis / engine number itself was given incorrectly at the time of order — please double-check it from your RC book before confirming.
