Search for OEM part numbers by VIN
I have used the Eper search function but it does not find my VIn
Also tried the NAutoexpress site with same result
I'm looking to find the OEM part numbers for both front and rear discs and pads.
My VIN is ZFA25000002S78768
Can anyone help please?

Check that the letter S is correct. After ZFA it should be all numbers.

It’s an S on the v5 and on the Fiat Plate under the bonnet and in the windscreen Darren

No. There are VIN numbers with at least one letter among the numbers, mine for example has H in the same position as the S the OPs VIN.
It's quite common that VIN numbers for motorhomes aren't recognized by Eper or parts distributors.
Perhaps the 4 zeroes after ZFA250 may be the culprit?
 
Does your camper have 15inch wheels?
Are you able to remove a wheel nut and measure the diameter of the wheel stud ?

16 inch alloys from new. 118pcd. Fiat light chassis. Year 2021.
Will remove a wheel nut at the weekend and measure bolt diameter - please can you explain how this helps with identifying the brakes I need?

The diameter of the wheel stud can be used to help identify light or heavy chassis.....but you state light chassis so no need to measure.

On brake parts websites the reference to wheel sizes in relation to brake parts is to identify light/heavy chassis . Your alloy wheel size on camper are not relevant to chassis type.

You need the brake parts relating to light chassis(oft described as being for 15inch wheels)

Its not just you loads of people struggle with light/heavy brake id.

Having written that you would still be very sensible to measure the dimensions of discs you have ,diameter and overall height be before ordering
Plus electric handbrake takes different pads to normal hand brake

Thank you Jack
 
If you have a local branch of gsf they usually can check via your vin which parts are correct. Drivetec discs are fine , don't use cheap pads, I like brembo, searching via brembo part numbers an throw up good deals.
If using gsf, order online for pick up at local branch using online discount code, or delivery. Online order using discout code invariably cheaper than walking into branch.
