Rear Brake Kit for Audi A4
The Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads - Ceramic and Hardware kit is built for rear brake service on select Audi A4 applications. Part number 4512-73081 combines coated rotors, ceramic pads, and matching hardware for a complete rear brake refresh.
Key Features
- Rear disc brake kit for select 1997-2001 Audi A4 applications
- DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads with post-cured friction material
- Scorched pad surface to reduce initial break-in time
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise, vibration, and harshness control
- Non-directional rotor finish for more even pad bed-in and smoother braking
- Hardware kit uses PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel
- Part number 4512-73081
Product Details
DFC designed this brake service kit for drivers who need OE-style rear braking performance on the Audi A4. The coated rotors are processed dry and ready to install, helping reduce prep time during brake service. The rotor casting uses G3000/G11H18 cast iron specifications and is machined to tight tolerances, then inspected for balance and critical dimensions. The 5000 Advanced ceramic pads are formulated for stable friction performance and quieter operation, while the included hardware is engineered to restore proper spring tension and caliper movement.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
What This Kit Helps Address
- Rear brake noise, squeal, or vibration
- Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
- Uneven or premature pad wear
- Reduced braking response from worn pads and fatigued hardware
- Longer brake service time caused by uncoated rotors
Installation Notes
Compatible With 1997 Audi A4, rear; 1998 Audi A4, rear; 1999 Audi A4, rear; 2000-2001 Audi A4, rear. For 1999 Audi A4, verify production date notes: one rear application is listed to 1/1999 and another from 2/1999. Clean mating surfaces, inspect caliper condition, and follow proper pad bedding procedures after installation. Part number 4512-73081 should be matched to the rear axle only.
Quality Assurance
DFC states that each rotor is inspected for critical dimensions and balance, and every rotor includes a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. The pads are post-cured and scorched for stable friction performance, and the hardware kit is built to OE-style form, fit, and function.
