Dynamic Friction Company Disc Brake Pad Set P/N:1551-1551-00
Bring smooth, confident stops to your Audi with the Dynamic Friction Company DFC 5000 Advanced Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set (P/N 1551-1549-00). This front-axle ceramic pad set drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2012-2013 Audi A6 Quattro, the 2012-2013 Audi A7 Quattro, and the 2013-2014 Audi A8 Quattro — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
DFC formulates its ceramic friction material specifically for each axle, delivering quiet operation and low, light-colored dust compared with conventional semi-metallic pads during everyday street driving.
Built using original-equipment-style friction formulations, this front set installs as your factory pads did. Brake pads wear as a matched set — replace both sides of the axle together for even, balanced braking.
What vehicles does this brake pad set fit?
It fits the front axle of the 2012-2013 Audi A6 Quattro, 2012-2013 Audi A7 Quattro, and 2013-2014 Audi A8 Quattro. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the exact engine for your vehicle.
Are these front or rear pads?
These are front-axle disc brake pads, formulated specifically for the front position on the listed Audi applications.
What are the benefits of these ceramic pads?
During everyday street driving they run quieter and produce less visible dust than conventional semi-metallic pads, with a smooth, consistent pedal feel.
Are these pads easy on my rotors?
Yes. The ceramic compound is designed to be rotor friendly while also providing long pad wear.
How many pads does this set include, and should I replace both sides?
This listing is one front-axle set. Brakes should be serviced as a matched pair, so replace both sides of the axle together for even, balanced braking.
