Hi ZedHeads,
Replacing disks and pads all round.
Which sensors would I require?
As always, grateful for the advice!

You need 2 sensors, one for the front & one for the rears

Brake Pad Sensor
And unless you’ve lost/broken your sensors, you don’t need to buy new ones. All you need to do is unclip the sensor from the current pads and clip it into the new ones you put on. It slides into a groove in the top centre of the pad.

Just be careful, the old ones tend to go quite brittle and semi fuse to the old pad. At least my front one did. Prob the same on my rears.
