Leon cupra rear caliper

[Redworminator]

Hi all, I have a sticky n/s rear caliper, gone on euros to get a replacement but there are various types, any ideas which mine would be? 1kk-1kq, 1ky-2ee, 1kp, 2em. These are the options it's coming up with when I put my reg in. It's a 2001 Leon cupra 1.8t, auq. Any help is much appreciated, thanks.

I'm not sure what those codes refer to exactly but there are only two types of rear brake calipers used on the mk1 Leon range.
The one you want (232mm solid discs) and the larger ones used on the Cupra R (256mm vented discs)

There is also the optional spring helpers for both types of calipers:

Don’t suppose you know the right code for the brake pipes? Mine are sticking and this seems to be the issue - bent rear pipe.

Cheers mate, any good brands or ones to avoid?

Also what does the K, R or AD define or are they all the same?
