Brake pad pins on my 14 are corroded. Want to replace them.
Rear OEM pin dimensions is M10x1 with pin itself 5.8mm*48mm.

Searching internet, I find pins which are 6mm in diameter... Do you think 0.2mm is a big difference? Does anyone have experience?

btw - what are front caliper pin dimensions?

Try fit second end of drill 6mm in diameter as caliber and you will see if 6mm is OK or if you need 5,8mm

Or you could just use a fine adjusting tool no1  :whistling:
Keep the rubber side down.          Mick

That's the one, although I think that looks like a No2.  :rofl2:
