Product Details

The DFC GEOSPEC rotor design is processed dry and ready to install, helping reduce prep time during brake service. The rotor casting uses G3000/G11H18 cast iron specifications and is finished for smoother pad bedding and quieter braking. The 5000 Advanced ceramic pads are formulated for stable friction performance, while the included hardware is engineered to restore proper caliper movement and spring tension on the front brakes.

Part number 4512-73153 is a practical choice for Audi A6 front brake repair when you want a matched rotor-and-pad package for the 2012-2013 Audi A6. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Brake Issues This Kit Can Address

• Front brake noise from worn pads or fatigued hardware
• Rotor rust and corrosion on exposed braking surfaces
• Uneven braking feel caused by worn or glazed components
• Longer stopping distances from reduced pad friction
• Vibration or pulsation from worn front rotors

Installation Notes

Install on the front axle only for confirmed 2012-2013 Audi A6 applications. Inspect calipers, slides, and brake fluid condition before assembly, and clean the hub mounting surface to help prevent rotor runout. Follow the vehicle manufacturer’s torque specifications and perform a proper pad bed-in procedure after installation.

Quality Assurance

DFC states that each rotor is inspected for critical dimensions and balance, and the rotors carry a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. The brake pads are post-cured and scorched for stable friction performance, and the hardware is built to OE-style form, fit, and function.
