Parts for your 1999 Daihatsu Gran move-Pedal pads

1999 Daihatsu Gran Move Pedal Pads

Based on technical references including the Daihatsu electronic parts catalogue for the G30# Gran Move/Pyzar platform and the factory workshop manual brake/clutch sections, the 1999 Daihatsu Gran Move is fitted with replaceable pedal pads. Manual-transmission models have rubber pads on the brake and clutch pedals, automatic models have a larger brake pedal pad. The accelerator is typically a hard, hinged pedal without a removable rubber pad.

On this model, pedal pads do a simple but vital job: they provide grippy, compliant contact underfoot so drivers don’t slip off the brake or clutch, especially in the wet. The rubber surface absorbs a bit of vibration, protects the pedal arm from wear, and helps meet common roadworthiness expectations. In New Zealand, the Waka Kotahi NZTA VIRM requires pedals to have a secure, non-slip surface, and Australian roadworthy guidelines echo the same intent—so worn-through or missing pads can trigger a fail at WOF or rego time.

For a 1999 Gran Move, it’s smart to treat pedal pads as consumables—small parts that do big safety work. Check them at every service or about every 10,000 km. If the rubber’s gone shiny-smooth, cracked, hard, or starting to split at the edges, it’s time to replace. On manual cars, a tired clutch pad often shows first, followed by the brake. Replacement is quick and inexpensive, and new OEM-style rubber gives the best wet grip.

Simple care keeps them sweet. Clean with a mild, silicone-free interior cleaner and a soft brush to lift embedded grit. Avoid silicone dressings—anything that leaves a slick sheen is a no-go on pedals. When replacing, confirm transmission type (manual or auto) as pad shapes differ, and match the pad to the pedal face from the parts listing in the Daihatsu EPC or a reputable aftermarket equivalent.

• Inspect every service, squeeze the edges to check for hardening or cracks.
• Replace if smooth, glazed, brittle, loose, or if metal pedal face is exposed.
• Press-fit the new pad evenly, ensure all lips are seated around the pedal plate.
• Test grip with a damp shoe sole before driving off.
• Keep the area free from cleaners, polishes, and overspray.

Popular questions about 1999 Daihatsu Gran Move pedal pads

Which pedals on a 1999 Daihatsu Gran Move have replaceable pads?
Manual versions have replaceable rubber pads on both the brake and clutch pedals. Automatic versions have a replaceable rubber pad on the wider brake pedal. The accelerator is usually a rigid pedal without a separate removable pad.

How often should the pedal pads be replaced?
There’s no fixed kilometre interval, but they should be inspected at every service. Replace as soon as the surface goes smooth, cracks appear, or the pad hardens or loosens. For many Gran Moves, that ends up being every few years depending on driving and climate.

Are aftermarket pedal covers legal in Australia and New Zealand?
They’re fine if they’re secure, non-slip, and don’t reduce pedal control. In NZ, the NZTA VIRM requires safe, non-slip pedal surfaces, Australian roadworthy checks look for the same. Avoid metal or glossy covers that can become slippery, and ensure the pad fully covers the pedal face.
