Dynamic Friction Company Disc Brake Pad Set P/N:1551-1898-00
Built for European rear brakes, the Dynamic Friction Company DFC EURO 5000 Ceramic Brake Pads, part number 1600-1898-00, combine fade resistance with low dust. This rear disc brake pad set uses an advanced ceramic formulation developed for European applications. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2016-2020 Audi A4, 2017-2020 Audi A4 Allroad and 2017-2020 Audi A4 Quattro. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
When you press the brake pedal, the caliper clamps the pads against the rotor, turning the wheel's motion into heat to slow the vehicle. If worn rear pads are behind squealing, grinding or a longer stopping distance, this set is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. For an Audi A4 brake pad replacement, we recommend replacing the pads on both rear wheels at the same time for even, balanced braking. Inspect the rotors while the wheels are off, and follow the vehicle service information for the installation procedure and torque values.
Is this the right Audi A4 brake pad for the rear axle?
Yes. Part number 1600-1898-00 is a rear pad set for the 2016-2020 Audi A4, 2017-2020 Audi A4 Allroad and 2017-2020 Audi A4 Quattro, among other vehicles. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for your vehicle.
What friction material do these pads use?
These are DFC EURO 5000 ceramic pads. They use an advanced ceramic formulation developed for European applications, with low dust and stable friction across a wide temperature range.
What does fade resistance mean for brake pads?
Brake fade is a loss of stopping feel as the pads heat up under repeated or hard braking. DFC lists excellent fade resistance as a feature of this pad.
What are the signs that rear brake pads may need replacing?
Common signs include squealing or grinding when braking, a longer stopping distance, or pad material that looks thin. Inspect the brakes to confirm the cause before you replace parts.
Should I replace the pads on both rear wheels at once?
Yes. We recommend replacing the pads on both rear wheels together for even, balanced braking. Inspect the rotors as well, and follow the vehicle service information during installation.
