Hello,
I'm wondering if there is any way of establishing what size stud holes my rotors should be for my vehicle (2011 2.0 tdci). Lots of places say that 13.8mm or 15.8mm can appear on this type of car. I have measured the stud and that appears to be a M12, so I am leaning towards 1.38mm stud holes, although I am not sure. Anybhelp would be great. https://ibb.co/bBKnknv Thanks |

Stud hole size doesn't matter. The disc is clamped by the wheel nuts.
What matters is the central locating hole (around 63mm from memory) the location of retainer screw holes (preventing disc movement on wheel removal) and the alloy used in the disc. I use Ford discs, hoping to keep original braking performance. They seem to need replacing with the pads, 100,000km in my case, country driving. Mine were 13.8mm, 2011 MC diesel.

Save the headache and use genuine H2MZ 1V125 E which is the Motorcraft service part, or 7G91 1125 EA which is the OE spec.

Just done my rear rotors and will do fronts tomorrow.
Got all 4 for $340 from Ford Dealer, went with Bendix GCT pads. Seem to be okay. I had to buy the piston winder kit from Supercheap, dont waste money on the cube just buy the kit of ebay or Supercheap. |

My rear rotors were able to be machined and the pads were replaced with Remsa ceramic. They were quite noisy at first and took ages to bed in, but are fine now and very quiet.
The brakes feel well balanced with the original front pads and rotors. I had to do an emergency stop on the motorway a few weeks ago and there wasn't the usual ABS drama from the back.
