Clamp the brake pads against the rotor with pressure-tested hydraulic force using the A1 CARDONE Remanufactured Unloaded Disc Brake Caliper 19-1816, a direct-fit replacement for the front left or front right position on the listed applications. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1998-2005 Volkswagen Passat, 1996-2006 Audi A4 and 1996-2006 Audi A4 Quattro. As an unloaded caliper, it ships without brake pads. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine-level fitment.
Signs this A1 CARDONE brake caliper may need replacing include leaking brake fluid, a caliper that sticks or drags, uneven pad wear, or a pull to one side. If a failed caliper is the cause, this unit replaces it. For even, balanced braking, replacing both calipers on the same axle together as a matched pair is recommended best practice; this listing is for one unit.
