Front Brake Kit for Audi A6 and A6 Quattro
DFC Friction part number 4512-73129 is a front disc brake kit built for select Audi A6 and Audi A6 Quattro applications. It combines GEOSPEC coated rotors, 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads, and brake hardware in one service kit for a complete front brake refresh.
Compatible With 2006-2011 Audi A6, front and 2005-2008 Audi A6 Quattro, front, this kit is designed for drivers looking for OE-style brake service parts with corrosion protection and consistent pedal response.
Key Features
- DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- Dry-processed rotors that are ready to install without oil removal
- G3000/G11H18 cast iron rotor construction for OE-style durability and stability
- Non-directional rotor finish for more even pad bed-in and quieter stops
- 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads with post-cured friction material
- Scorched pads to reduce initial break-in time and improve first-stop performance
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved NVH control
- Hardware kit uses PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel
Product Line Details
The DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads line is built for complete front brake service. The rotor coating helps resist rust, while the ceramic pad formulation is engineered for stable friction and smoother operation. The included hardware is designed to restore proper caliper movement and spring tension during brake service.
Detailed Description
Part number 4512-73129 is a front brake kit for Audi A6 and Audi A6 Quattro models that need rotors, pads, and hardware serviced together. The rotors are machined to tight tolerances, balanced on vented applications, and inspected to confirm OE-spec critical dimensions. The pads are formulated for consistent friction across a range of driving conditions, making this kit a practical choice for a front brake job on a 2006-2011 Audi A6 or a 2005-2008 Audi A6 Quattro.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
Common Issues This Kit Can Address
- Brake noise from worn pads or fatigued hardware
- Uneven pad wear caused by corroded or weakened hardware
- Rotor rust and surface corrosion on the braking surface
- Reduced braking smoothness from worn front brake components
- Longer service time when rotors require cleaning before installation
Installation Notes and Tips
Install on the front axle only. Inspect calipers, slides, and brake fluid condition during service, and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s torque specifications and bedding procedure after installation. The coated rotor surface is processed dry and is ready for installation as supplied.
Quality Assurance
DFC GEOSPEC rotors are 100% inspected for critical dimensions, and vented rotors are balance-checked and corrected when needed. The rotors include a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
