OEM Part Number: 95516089 (genuine front disc — confirm via VIN) — aftermarket front discs Brembo 09.A969.11 / TRW DF4996S

Accuracy note: Covers the Vauxhall Insignia (A 2008-2017) 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 Insignia Brake Discs: The Part That Pads Depend On

On the Vauxhall Insignia, these two components wear together, and letting one go too long accelerates wear on the other, which is why a simple pad swap so often reveals discs that need replacing at the same time.

Vauxhall Insignia 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 Insignia typically use bigger discs than standard versions to handle the additional heat generated by more aggressive braking.
