Keep your rear disc brakes quiet, correctly seated, and moving freely with the Dynamic Friction Company Disc Brake Hardware Kit 340-74011 (also written 34074011). This rear brake hardware kit installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2000-2008 Audi A4, 2002-2005 Audi A4 Quattro, 2001-2005 Audi Allroad Quattro, 2002-2004 Audi A6, 1999-2004 Audi A6 Quattro, and 1999 Volkswagen Cabrio — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
A disc brake hardware kit supplies the small clips, springs, and retainers that locate the brake pads and let them slide and retract as the brakes apply and release. Worn or corroded hardware can cause noise, uneven pad wear, or pads that stick, so DFC recommends fitting fresh hardware whenever the pads are serviced.
The kit also offers chemical resistance for durability in real-world driving conditions.
