Hey, My euro is up for new rear brake pads! I am so supprised the rear has run out before the front! But Honda sais it's very normal on the euro's

I really don't wanna have to pay Honda $250 to change the rear pads, i'd preffer to do them myself, Next step is trying to find the rear pads! I was just going to put some bendix advance in the rear but bendix doesn't make them! Does anybody have a DB part number for the 05 euro rear pads?!!?

Thanks :)

How many KM have you done ? Rear pads should last a long while unless you do hand brake turns :p ;)

Wow, $250 for new rear pads. Try some other brands like Ferodo, Endless, or even EBC. For Jap and UK brands, just look for pads that suit 05 Accord's cos I'm sure their normal Accord is our Euro, no the seppo one.

REV888, doesnt the handbrake have its own drum on the rear axle? I dont think they use the rear brake pads.

...and yeah buy some aftermarket brakes since the oem honda brake pads are a bit crap on the euro. :thumbsup:

Shame Bendix dont make euro pads :(

The handbrake engages the rear brake pads. That's why when you compress the pistons on the rear calipers, you need to rotate it clockwise while pushing in.

Yeah after viewing the workshop manual, thats how it looks for the 4D euro.
Although the 5D euro wagon appears to use a parking brake drum/pad, but its hard to be certain since the manual is a bit vague.

my rear brake pad wears faster than the front as well, and this is on EBC green stuff. rear has 5mm left, front has 6mm left

Yup, you're right. The wagon uses parking brake shoes.

Thanks for all the replies! I really wanna just put oem pads in there! nothing flash and i don't really use the brakes that hard (car has 41,000km), But i do have heavy 19 inch wheels that have been under the euro since 200km old which wouldn't help the brake wear. I was very supprised that the rear pads had gone so quickly! There is no noise comming but they only have around 5,000 left in them! Honda advised me the fronts have plently left in them.

I guess i'll be going for Honda gen rear pads as i want to install them this saturday, i don't wanna run the risk of running them low !

If only bendix made the pad!!

No offence, but what's so good about Bendix?? There are other brands out that better than Bendix such as those that I've mentioned. If OEM pads cost as much as EBC greenstuff, might as well get that instead. No offence to EBC greenstuff users either, I reckon it's nothing flashy and good enough for normal road use :P
