Designed for quiet, confident front stops, the BOSCH brake pad BE2045H is cataloged for the front axle. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2019-2025 Subaru Forester, 2020-2025 Subaru Outback and 2020-2025 Subaru Legacy. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine-specific details.
Bosch builds on an OE braking heritage that dates back to 1927. Its engineers formulate and test the friction material for each vehicle platform, drawing on NAO-ceramic and semi-metallic formulas across the line.
A disc brake pad set slows the vehicle by pressing friction material against the rotor, and the pads wear down with every stop. Squealing or grinding under braking, a longer stopping distance, or friction material worn thin on inspection are signs the pads may need replacing. For even, balanced braking, replace the pads on both sides of the axle together and check the rotors at the same time.
This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
Is BE2045H the right Subaru Forester brake pad for a 2019-2025 Subaru Forester?
Yes, BE2045H is listed for the front brakes of the 2019-2025 Subaru Forester. It's also listed for the 2020-2025 Subaru Outback and 2020-2025 Subaru Legacy; see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
Is BE2045H a front or rear pad?
The catalog lists BE2045H for the front position on its listed Subaru applications.
What friction material does Bosch use?
Bosch formulates and tests the friction material for each vehicle platform, drawing on NAO-ceramic and semi-metallic formulas across its brake pad line.
Does it come with lubricant or hardware?
Synthetic lubricant is included in every application to help reduce resistance at the sliding contact points. Stainless hardware is supplied where the application calls for it.
What are signs my brake pads may need replacing?
Squealing or grinding when braking, a longer stopping distance, or pads worn thin on inspection. Replace the pads on both sides of the axle together for even, balanced braking.
