Product Details

The DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads line is built for drivers who want a complete front brake service package with matched components. For the 1993 Volkswagen Passat, this kit pairs coated rotors that resist rust better than conventional paint or zinc finishes with pads formulated for stable friction performance and quieter operation. Part number 4502-74078 is machined to tight tolerances, inspected for critical dimensions, and balanced where required to support consistent braking performance.

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

Common Brake Issues This Kit Can Address

• Front brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotors
• Noise during braking from aged pads or rotor surface wear
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Extended stopping distance caused by worn friction material
• Uneven pad bedding after brake service

Installation Notes

Compatible With the front axle on the 1993 Volkswagen Passat. The rotors are shipped dry and do not require oil removal before installation.
