Vario44... yes very confusing... they seem almost identical but on close inspection on the PDFs for each product the only visible difference is the metal anti-squeak shim profile.. If you go to the following links for the two you can see.. there's also some drawings with dimensions that are marked differently for each type.. these PDFs are related to the wva number which is also different for each set... I can't answer which is the correct one unless the wva number is on the old pads or you can see the anti squeak plate profile and match it.. I suspect both types will work as they are both listed..

UPDATE: after reviewing the PDFS again it appears the 185 variant covers a lot more of the different models than the 187.. quite why that is relevant I don't know .. check your exact model against their listed ones .. suspect yours comes up on both lists.

Thanks mate for looking into this and I think you're right it's just the anti-squeak profile. Both are listed as compatible so will order some and see.

 

Have the same problem with my 2019 Q4 gas w 20" wheels.

I called the dealer and asked for the OE part number maching my VIN. Then went to bremboparts.com to match up with the right pads.

US car, but now in Europe. Now I just need an online dealer of Brembo pads..
