    2.0 vs 1.8 brakes - need help quick

    Are they the same? Need to order some parts really quick and as the Americans never got the 1.8, they don't list parts for them...

    Would I be right in assuming everything brake and suspension related is the same for the 1.8 CL and 2.0 GL? Or are they different? I'm needing hoses, pads and drums

    a number of cars shared parts such as brakes. My only advice is to check out the part numbers on the car and work from that to ensure you get the right parts. Even locally with the best endeavours, you can get it wrong (I sure have).

    The CL had both ventilated and solid disc brakes. The 2.0l only had ventilated.
