Wagner Brake MX215 front brake pad for the 1983-1996 Buick Century and other vehicles is a semi-metallic disc brake pad set that clamps the rotor to slow the car.
- Wagner ThermoQuiet line, with semi-metallic friction material engineered in-house for quiet operation and high performance
- Wagner OE25 zero-copper friction formulation
- Integrally Molded Insulator (IMI) technology for quieter operation
- IMI one-piece design combines friction material, backing plate and insulator in the pad for select applications
- Advanced friction formulations dissipate heat to support braking performance
A squeal or grinding when you brake, a longer stopping distance or a pull to one side can mean the pads are worn. Before you replace them, rule out a sticking caliper, a worn rotor or a fluid leak, since each can produce similar signs. One set goes on the front axle.
This pad set is a direct-fit replacement for the 1983-1996 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera and the 1987-1994 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser, along with other Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile and Pontiac models. Open the "Vehicles it fits" section to check your exact model and engine.
