| Front pads are the same 90 and 110. Rears are different, 90s have smaller pistons in different calipers. |

| Thanks; it seems like many (most!) places are rammed out with work. And that of course is a good sign in many ways, but it's a few weeks' wait. So just casting round to see if anywhere was able to tak ... |

| Thanks both for the swift reply. I'd agree about Marple Road Garage; it's where it's serviced and is very satisfactory, and the people really helpful but they are unable to take this on at the moment ... |
