1.2tsi Brake Disk Size

[Kesh]

Hey guys,

I've looked around google and haven't been able to find a solid set of numbers for the sizes of the brakes on the 1.2tsi. DBA has a few options for both front and rear, so I'm not 100 percent certain.

Could anyone tell me diameter the front and rear disks are on the 1.2tsi polo. I'm after some DBA T2 rotors for the car, and bendix pads.

I'm led believe it's 256mm front and 232mm rear.

I noted the 1.2 81kw Cross Polo here has larger front brakes than the 1.2 66kW Polo and smaller than the GTI.

What year model is it? What kw motor does it have?

Based of this:

Engine	PR No.	Rear brakes
1.2l - 66 kW	1KT / 2EJ	C 38 (14”)
1.4l - 66 kW TDI
1.4l - 77 kW TDI
1.2l - 81 kW
1.4l - 110 kW
1.8l - 141 kW	1KV

Engine	PR No.	Front brakes
1.2l - 44 kW	1LR / 1ZG	FS III (14”)
1.2l - 51 kW
1.2l - 66 kW
1.2l - 77 kW TSI 1)
1.4l - 63 kW
1.2 l; 1.6 l - 55 kW TDI
1.6l - 66 kW TDI
1.6l - 77 kW TDI	1ZC	FN3 (15”)
1.2l - 77 kW TSI 2)
1.4 l - 103 kW TSI

1) Worldwide and Europe up to Week 22/2012

2) Europe as of Week 22/2012



I think this is what you need (i think this is still the same for the 1.2L 77kw motor also):

Item	PR No.	1LR / 1ZG / 1ZJ
1	Brake caliper	FS III (14”)
2	Brake pad, thickness	mm	14
Brake pad, wear limit without backplate	mm	2
3	Brake disc	Diam‐ eter in mm	256
Brake disc, thickness	mm	22
Brake disc, wear limit	mm	19
4	Brake caliper, piston	Diam‐ eter in mm	54

Rear brakes (disc brakes)

Item	PR No.	1KT / 2EJ / 1KV
1	Brake caliper	C 38 (14”)
2	Brake pad, thickness	mm	12
Brake pad, wear limit with‐ out backplate	mm	2
3	Brake disc	Diameter in mm	230
Thickness	mm	9
Wear limit	mm	7
4	Piston	Diameter in mm	38

Mitch, it's a 2010 77tsi. I had a look at the service manual and think what you've got above is right, 256 front, 230 rear

Front brakes are 256mm and the rears are 232mm
