The Story
Brake Kit for Volkswagen Cabrio and Passat
The Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads - Ceramic and Hardware kit is a front and rear brake service solution for select Volkswagen applications. Part number 4514-74011 combines coated rotors, ceramic brake pads, and brake hardware in one package for a complete brake refresh.
- Fits 2000-2002 Volkswagen Cabrio, front and rear
- Fits 1995-1996 Volkswagen Passat, front and rear
- Fits 1990-1992 Volkswagen Passat, front and rear
- DFC 5000 Advanced pads are post-cured and scorched for stable friction and reduced break-in time
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims help reduce noise, vibration, and harshness
- GeoSpec coated rotors arrive dry and ready to install with corrosion-resistant silver-gray coating
- Non-directional rotor finish supports even pad bed-in and smoother braking
- Hardware kit uses PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel construction
Product Details
DFC 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are formulated for consistent friction performance across everyday driving conditions. The pads are post cured, then scorched to remove uncured bonding agents, which helps reduce initial bedding time and improve stopping response from the first stop. DFC Premium Rubber-Steel-Rubber shims are used to support quieter operation and better NVH control. The GEOSPEC coated rotors are made to OEM-style G3000/G11H18 cast iron specifications, machined to tight tolerances, and finished with a non-directional surface for more even pad contact. Part number 4514-74011 is built for drivers servicing a Volkswagen Cabrio or Volkswagen Passat brake system with matched rotor, pad, and hardware components.
Common Brake Issues This Kit Can Address
- Brake noise from worn pads or fatigued hardware
- Uneven pad wear caused by corroded or weakened brake hardware
- Rotor rust on exposed braking surfaces
- Longer stopping distances from worn friction material
- Brake pulsation or rough pedal feel from worn rotors
Installation Notes
Inspect calipers, slides, and mounting points before installation. Clean the hub face thoroughly so the coated rotors seat flat, and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s torque specifications during assembly. The dry-coated rotors are ready to install without additional preparation, and the coating is removed naturally by the brake pads during normal use.
Quality Assurance
Each rotor is 100% inspected for critical dimensions and balance, with vented rotors electronically mill-balanced when needed. The rotors include a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. Part number 4514-74011 is engineered for OE-style fit and function for the listed Volkswagen Cabrio and Passat applications.
