[Brakes] Brakes and oil

[Shaun Coe]

Need to buy some front pads for my 2013 berlingo, now should I buy genuine citreon at silly money bout £85 or should I just go after market pads, and if the later any recommendation on manufacturer !
Ps at same time thinking about doing the service myself, vans at nearly 30k, any help with what best synthetic oil to use would also be of help.
Thankyou

Re pads have a look at Eurocarparts they have extra 5% or free gift right now......

Re Oil, worth thinking about the convenience factor here (assuming you are thinking to change it yourself), have a look at the National Tyre chain (there are a number of posts on the forum about this on the forum) the oil change service is very competitive and the oil quality is Fuchs fully synthetic which a lot of OEMs use. If you do decide to go with them suggest you make sure you tell them to supply and fit MANN filter
