Installation Notes and Tips

Some applications include chassis-number restrictions, such as 2000 Audi A8 and A8 Quattro models built to chassis number 4D-Y-005-500, and 1997 Audi A4 models built to 1/97. Mounting hardware is not included. This pad set is not prepared for a pad wear sensor, so confirm your vehicle’s rear brake configuration before service.
