The Story
Rear Brake Kit for Volkswagen and Audi
The DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads kit is a rear disc brake service kit built for select Volkswagen and Audi applications. Part number 4502-74116 combines coated rear rotors with matched friction material for a direct replacement solution on vehicles such as the Volkswagen GTI, Golf, Golf R, Passat, CC, and Audi S3.
Key Features
- Rear disc brake kit with rotors and pads in one package
- DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- Dry-processed, dry-shipped rotors ready for installation
- G3000/G11H18 cast iron rotor construction engineered to OE specifications
- Non-directional rotor finish for even pad bed-in and smoother braking
- 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are post-cured and scorched for stable friction performance
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims help reduce noise, vibration, and harshness
- Part number 4502-74116 for rear brake service
Product Details
DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are built for drivers who need a rear brake replacement that matches factory-style fit and performance targets. The rotors are machined to tight tolerances, inspected for critical dimensions, and balanced where required to support consistent operation. The coating helps resist rust better than conventional paint or zinc finishes, while the dry-ready design eliminates the need to clean off oil before installation. The 5000 Advanced pads are formulated for stable friction, reduced break-in time, and improved NVH control.
This rear brake kit is a strong match for Volkswagen GTI rear brake service, Volkswagen Golf rear brake replacement, and Audi S3 rear brake maintenance. Part number 4502-74116 is also listed for Volkswagen CC and Passat rear applications, making it a practical option for OE-style brake refresh work.
Common Problems This Kit Can Address
- Rear brake noise, squeal, or vibration
- Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
- Uneven braking feel from worn rotors and pads
- Extended stopping distance caused by worn friction material
- Brake pulsation from rotor wear or finish irregularities
Installation Notes and Fitment

- Fits 2019-2020 Volkswagen GTI, rear
- Fits 2017 Volkswagen GTI, rear

Quality Assurance
Each DFC GEOSPEC rotor is manufactured to OE-style specifications and undergoes machining and inspection checks for balance and critical dimensions. The rotors include a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
