Keep rear braking smooth and your wheels cleaner with the PowerStop Z17 Evolution Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set 17-1348. This rear disc brake pad set drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2015 Audi Q3, 2015 Audi Q3 Quattro, 2009-2017 Volkswagen CC, 2008-2010 Volkswagen Passat, and 2009-2010 Volkswagen Passat CC — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
The Z17 low-dust ceramic formula is designed to deliver confident stopping power while keeping brake dust down and wheels cleaner during everyday street driving. Ceramic compounds run quieter and shed lighter, less-visible dust than conventional semi-metallic pads, with a smooth, consistent pedal feel at normal daily driving temperatures.
Replace the pads on the same axle together as a matched set for even, balanced braking.
