Volkswagen Cc Disc Brake Caliper Kit in US

When a caliper on the Volkswagen Cc seizes, leaks, or drags, the damage does not stop at the caliper. A partially seized caliper on your Cc keeps the brake pad in continuous contact with the rotor, wearing the pad unevenly and scoring the rotor surface. By the time the caliper on the Volkswagen Cc is identified as the fault, the pads are typically worn asymmetrically and the rotor is damaged. A caliper kit from GeoBrakes addresses every compromised component on your Volkswagen Cc together.

What Is Included in the Volkswagen Cc Disc Brake Caliper Kit

The kit for your Volkswagen Cc includes the disc brake caliper at the correct left or right hand specification for the Cc, either new OEM-spec or quality remanufactured to the Volkswagen Cc piston dimension and hydraulic pressure rating, brake pads in ceramic or semi-metallic formulation matched to the Cc caliper and rotor specification, caliper hardware with slide pins, pin boots, and anti-rattle clips for correct caliper float on the Volkswagen Cc, brake lubricant for correct pin and shim installation on your Cc, and copper washers or banjo bolt seals for the brake hose connection where required by the Volkswagen Cc application.

When a Caliper Kit Is the Correct Service Choice for the Volkswagen Cc

A caliper kit is the right call for the Volkswagen Cc in three specific situations. After a seized or dragging caliper, because the pads and often the rotor on your Cc are already compromised. During a high-mileage Cc overhaul at 150,000 kilometres or more, because caliper piston seals and guide pin boots on the Volkswagen Cc are typically at or beyond their service life. After a brake fluid leak at the caliper, because fluid contamination of the Cc brake pad renders the friction material permanently ineffective on your Volkswagen Cc.

New vs. Remanufactured Caliper for the Volkswagen Cc

New OEM-specification calipers for the Volkswagen Cc are manufactured from fresh materials with no prior service history, the strongest choice for Cc vehicles in high-corrosion environments. Remanufactured calipers use original Volkswagen Cc housings rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new units at a lower price point for most Cc replacement applications.

Signs the Caliper Kit on Your Volkswagen Cc Is Due

• Volkswagen Cc pulling to one side during braking, one caliper applying more force than the other
• One brake pad on your Cc worn significantly more than its pair on the same axle
• Brake drag on the Volkswagen Cc with a wheel that runs hot after normal driving
• Soft or sinking Cc brake pedal caused by a caliper piston seal leak
• Brake fluid visible around the Volkswagen Cc caliper piston boot
• Persistent metallic dragging noise from one Cc corner not explained by worn pads

Why GeoBrakes for the Volkswagen Cc Caliper Kit

Calipers for the Volkswagen Cc are the most position-specific brake component in the catalogue. Left and right calipers for the Cc are not interchangeable. Our vehicle selector confirms the correct caliper kit for the Volkswagen Cc exact year, axle position, and left or right side before purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions - Volkswagen Cc Disc Brake Caliper Kits

Should I replace both calipers on my Volkswagen Cc at the same time?

It is strongly recommended. If one caliper on the Volkswagen Cc has seized or leaked, the caliper on the opposite side has experienced the same conditions and age on your Cc. Replacing both restores balanced, even braking and eliminates the risk of the second Cc caliper failing shortly after the first is replaced.

Do I need to bleed the brakes on my Volkswagen Cc after installing a caliper kit?

Yes. Opening the hydraulic circuit on the Volkswagen Cc to install the new caliper allows air to enter. After installation, the brake circuit on the Cc must be bled at the caliper bleeder screw to purge all air and restore a firm, consistent brake pedal on your Volkswagen Cc.

What is the difference between a new and remanufactured caliper in the Volkswagen Cc kit?

A new caliper for the Volkswagen Cc has no prior service history and is the stronger choice for high-corrosion environments. A remanufactured caliper uses an original Cc housing rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new at a lower price point for most Volkswagen Cc applications.
