Product Details

DFC 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are formulated for modern braking systems that require consistent friction characteristics. The pads are post-cured, scorched, and assembled with premium shims to help deliver predictable pedal feel and quieter operation. DFC GEOSPEC rotors are machined to tight tolerances, finished with a non-directional surface, and inspected for balance and critical dimensions. This part number 4512-73165 is a practical choice for Audi A6 Quattro, Audi A7 Sportback, Audi A8 Quattro, Audi Q7, and Audi Q8 front brake service where coated rotors and ceramic pads are specified.

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

What This Brake Kit Helps 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 friction material
• Excessive caliper movement from aged hardware components
• Longer stopping distances related to worn front brake components
