Product Line Details

DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads pairs coated rotors with a pad compound tuned for modern vehicle braking demands. The rotor coating is designed to resist rust better than conventional paint or zinc finishes, while the pad construction focuses on stable friction and reduced NVH for everyday driving and service replacement use.

Detailed Description

This rear disc brake kit is a service solution for the Cadillac CTS rear axle, covering 2014-2019 applications. Part number 4502-46087 includes DFC GEOSPEC rotors and DFC 5000 Advanced Brake Pads, giving you the core components needed for a rear brake refresh on the Cadillac CTS. The rotors are machined to tight tolerances, balanced where required, and finished to support quieter operation and more even pad contact. The pads are post-cured, scorched, and assembled with premium shims to help maintain consistent pedal feel and braking response.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Brake Issues It Can Address

• Rear brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotors
• Brake noise caused by aged pads or rotor surface wear
• Reduced stopping performance from heat-worn friction material
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Uneven pad bed-in after a rear brake service

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear-axle fitment against your Cadillac CTS before installation. Clean the hub mounting surface, inspect caliper hardware and slide pins, and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake service procedure. The rotors are shipped dry and ready to install, so no oil removal step is required before assembly. After installation, perform a proper brake bed-in procedure to help the pads and rotors seat evenly.

Quality Assurance

DFC GEOSPEC rotors are manufactured to OE specifications and undergo 100% inspection of critical dimensions and balance checks on vented rotors. Each rotor includes a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
