Rear Brake Pad for 1999 Saab 9-5 - Bosch BP811

Refresh the rear brakes on your 1999 SAAB 9-5 with the Bosch brake pad set BP811, from the Bosch QuietCast line. It is cataloged for the rear position as a direct-fit replacement for the listed application. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine details.

Bosch QuietCast brake pads combine a copper-free friction formula with pre-attached shims and coated hardware, which are designed to help reduce noise and vibration at the wheel.

• Copper-free friction formula: An advanced aerospace alloy is used in Bosch's patented copper-free formula, which complies with 2025 copper-free legislation. Bosch engineers formulated and tested the friction material.
• OE-style rubber-core shims: Pre-attached multilayer shims bond rubber and steel to help lower noise, add strength and resist corrosion.
• PTFE- and rubber-coated hardware: Helps reduce vibration and noise and keeps the pads from binding in the caliper.
• Powder-coated backing plate: Helps protect the pad against rust and corrosion.

A protective transfer layer is designed to help extend pad and rotor life. Synthetic lubricant is included to reduce resistance at the sliding contact points. The pads draw on Bosch's OE braking heritage, which dates back to 1927.

Signs that rear pads may need replacing include squealing or grinding when braking, longer stopping distances, and friction material that has worn thin. Replacing the pads on both sides of the rear axle together is recommended for even, balanced braking.
