OEM Part Number: 1680584580 (genuine front disc — confirm via VIN) — aftermarket front discs Brembo 09.5843.31 / Bosch 0 986 479 113

Accuracy note: Covers the Vauxhall Adam (2013-2019) as listed in the UK aftermarket catalogues. Front brake discs are sold by diameter and thickness, and most models have two or three disc sizes depending on engine, brake size and trim — a 278 mm disc will not fit a car built with 300 mm brakes, so the caliper carrier and the disc must match. The references below are UK aftermarket catalogue listings for this generation, labelled by brand with diameter x thickness in mm; genuine numbers are shown only where a listing quotes one. Measure the old disc or check the brake size against your VIN before ordering, replace discs in pairs with new pads, and scrap any disc at or below its minimum thickness.

Vauxhall Adam Brake Discs: The Part That Pads Depend On

On the Vauxhall Adam, discs and pads work as a pair, and neglecting one tends to accelerate wear on the other — which is exactly why worn discs so often get discovered during what was meant to be a routine pad change.

Before you buy: disc size and design vary by trim, engine size and whether your car has the standard or "sport" brake package. Always confirm against your VIN before ordering.

Vauxhall Adam Brake Discs: What They Do

Brake discs provide the surface the brake pads clamp against to slow the car, converting momentum into heat through friction. Larger, sportier trims of the Adam typically use bigger discs than standard versions to handle the additional heat generated by more aggressive braking.
