Aidoe46 Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 Hey, I have ordered new front brake pads (Mintex MDB 1623) for a 1999 K11 Nissan Micra, when i took off the caliper and took out the old pads, they are totally different to the new pads i got, I have seen them listed in various places as the above pads but cant get my head around it, how are they supposed to fit if there a totally different pad? the pads i recieved are alot narrower and longer than the ones on the car, yet they are listed everywhere as the pads for the front Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc l Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 You have the wrong pads! I would take the pads off then go to a Motor factors with the old part. They should be able to find you the right ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz 330 Cs Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 They're obviously the wrong pads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mit Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 Do they look like they will fit anyway? The shape of the pad can change a bit as long as they still attach in the same place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidoe46 Posted February 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 I am aware they are the wrong pads,there is no way they will fit,totally different in length and width,i will get back to the crowd i got them from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidoe46 Posted February 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 So the reason why they won't fit is they are for European Market Micra's and not For Japanese Imports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
