The arsehole Eddy Lee <eddy7...@gmail.com> persisting in being an Off-topic troll...
I got new 2014 pads that won't fit in my 2012 Nissan Leaf. Did they change size in 2014? What is the typical brake pad size?
2012: 6.5" total length
2014: 5.5" total length
Should I change to the newer brake bracket?

Can't return the smaller one. If newer models are using smaller one, I can go with replacing the bracket. I will probably upgrade to 2014+ model eventually, just for the 6.7KW charger vs. 3.7KW.Should I change to the newer brake bracket?why would you even consider not just getting the right pads?

Worst case, it means asking the dude at the counter for the part(s) you need.

with make and model brake pads or whatever other spare part you want.
Most UK sites these days can do a registration lookup and know for
certain what the vehicle actually is down to its date of manufacture.
Just curious what other cars use. Do people not know their shoe size or pad size?Not unless the unit is dismantled and in front of me.
Even when I did all my own servicing as an impecunious student I only
knew such things for the short time it took to find out which part was needed to buying a new one! Haynes manuals are pretty good on any minor model variations with year that might otherwise catch you out.
The exact part number was generally more useful than its dimensions!!!

Should I change to the newer brake bracket?Probably a very bad idea. There may be a good reason why the old pads
are 16% bigger to obtain the regulation stopping distance.
Isn't your car held together with duct tape and sealing wax already?

mechanics can also offer good advice based on their experience.I think you would be better served by posting this question/issue in the Nissan Leaf forum(s). For the two vehicle forums that I participate in, there are posts/replies for ASE-certified mechanics who are usually well-informed.

I every Internet parts supplier I've dealt with also lets you enter the VIN.
Also, if you are in doubt about a replacement part call a few dealer parts desks and discuss the issue with them. They usually are knowledgeable albeit sometimes lazy to fully answer your question. They should have details about superseded parts, etc.After all, it should be in their parts data base, assuming they are kept updated in a timely manner.

Half joking of course. But if I don't have any other choice, I would have to do it.
The seller I got from won't answer my inquiry, 3 days after the return deadline. I'll order from another one (also won't answer my inquiry), but I should be able to check and return it in time.
If not, just cut the ceramic from the new pad, superglue and brass screw it to the old pad. When it kills the rotor, then get the rotor and pad kit from autozone. 1/3 joking of course.

Worst case, it means asking the dude at the counter for the part(s) you >> need.
Doesn't work that way online. I asked two sellers about the size. No response so far. It's for the right model, but wrong year.
Just curious what other cars use. Do people not know their shoe size or pad size?It used to be you looked up your model-year in a paper parts catalog, but it's mostly online now.
if that doesn't work if you have alternative transport park and
disassemble your car and use the alternative to visit the supplier
with the old part in hand..

Perhaps I can super-glue some ceramic to the old pad.
I wish I thought you were joking...
him already! Killfile him!
Surely there are more interesting things to write about?
Half joking of course. But if I don't have any other choice, I would have to do it.
The seller I got from won't answer my inquiry, 3 days after the return deadline. I'll order from another one (also won't answer my inquiry), but I should be able to check and return it in time.
If not, just cut the ceramic from the new pad, superglue and brass screw it to the old pad. When it kills the rotor, then get the rotor and pad kit from autozone. 1/3 joking of course.Why not design electronics and pay the dealer to fix your car?

Why on earth didn't you get the right part?
Do US cars not have the equivalent of Haynes manuals?

if that doesn't work if you have alternative transport park and disassemble your car and use the alternative to visit the supplierI know what I need. Just don't know where to buy 6.5" pads.
with the old part in hand..
To summarize:
haynes.com: 0 result for brake pad
autozone: don't have pad alone
ebay: no 2011 or 12 Leaf, 2013+ only

To summarize:Don't buy anything from an unauthorized seller. There are so many ways the part can be defective, you can't count them all.

This outfit is excellent:
https://www.1aauto.com/search?q=brake+pad&year=2012&model=1746&searchQuery=brake+pad
They're not just merchandizers, they know the automotive repair business. If you poke around the website, you should be able to find an instrucbtional video on installation. There might be something that's not obvious, like lubricants and anticorrosion
It's 'aftermarket' but if 1A sells it, it's of equal quality as the OEM, making for the best price.

Hate to get rip off by mechanics. $200 just to look at bent control arm. Already done with the difficult part. Replacing pad is easy, if I get the right part.

choices for 2012 Leaf, they show pads as 6.44" long. Great to deal
with, I've bought from them several times.
