Volkswagen Passat Disc Brake Kit in US

A complete disc brake kit for the Volkswagen Passat is the most efficient way to perform a full axle disc brake service on your Passat. The friction components, rotor surface finish, pad compound, and caliper hardware on the Volkswagen Passat all function as an integrated system. Sourcing each element separately for the Passat introduces compatibility variables that manifest as brake noise, vibration, or inconsistent pedal feel in the first months of service on your Volkswagen Passat.

What Is Included in the Volkswagen Passat Disc Brake Kit

The kit for your Volkswagen Passat includes front or rear disc brake rotors at OEM or performance specification for the Passat, brake pads in ceramic or semi-metallic formulation compound-matched to the Volkswagen Passat rotor specification, a caliper hardware kit with slide pins, pin boots, and anti-rattle clips for correct caliper float on the Passat, brake lubricant for correct caliper pin and shim installation on your Volkswagen Passat, and rotor mounting hardware where required by the Volkswagen Passat application.

Three Kit Levels for the Volkswagen Passat

OEM Replacement Disc Brake Kit for the Volkswagen Passat

Restores factory braking performance exactly on your Volkswagen Passat, the correct specification for everyday commuting and family use of the Passat in American conditions.

Antirust Coated Disc Brake Kit for the Volkswagen Passat

The most practical choice for American Volkswagen Passat drivers. Zinc-coated or e-coated rotor surfaces on the Passat resist the rust that plain rotors develop within days of road salt exposure on your Volkswagen Passat, maintaining consistent friction performance through multiple winter seasons.

Performance Disc Brake Kit for the Volkswagen Passat

Uses cross-drilled and slotted rotors with high-performance pads for Volkswagen Passat drivers who tow, drive mountain roads, or generate sustained braking temperatures beyond what factory-spec rotors manage effectively on the Passat.

Why Correct Hardware Is as Important as the Friction Components on the Volkswagen Passat

Caliper slide pins, pin boots, and anti-rattle clips on the Volkswagen Passat are the most commonly overlooked components in a brake service and the most common cause of brake noise complaints after a pad change on the Passat. Sticking slide pins on your Volkswagen Passat prevent the caliper from floating freely, causing the outer pad to wear faster than the inner. Every GeoBrakes disc brake kit for the Passat includes fresh hardware as a standard component.

Signs the Disc Brake Kit on Your Volkswagen Passat Is Due

• Vibration or pulsation through the Passat brake pedal during stops
• Squealing or grinding from the Volkswagen Passat brake corners indicating worn pads and damaged rotors
• Passat rotor surfaces scored, grooved, or below minimum thickness specification
• Volkswagen Passat pulling to one side under braking
• Brake warning light illuminated on your Passat dashboard

Frequently Asked Questions - Volkswagen Passat Disc Brake Kits

Should I buy a front kit, rear kit, or both for my Volkswagen Passat?

Front brakes on the Volkswagen Passat handle 60 to 70 percent of braking force and wear faster than the rear. If only one axle on your Passat is due for service, buy that kit. If both axles on the Volkswagen Passat need service simultaneously, combining them in one order above $99 qualifies for free US-wide delivery.

What rotor type should I choose for my Volkswagen Passat in American conditions?

For everyday commuting on your Volkswagen Passat, an antirust coated OEM kit is the most practical choice, delivering factory-level performance while resisting the corrosion plain rotors develop rapidly on the Passat in road salt conditions. For towing or performance driving with your Volkswagen Passat, a drilled-and-slotted performance kit provides improved heat management.

How long do disc brake kits last on a Volkswagen Passat?

Under normal American driving, a quality disc brake kit on the Volkswagen Passat typically lasts 50,000 to 70,000 kilometres. Antirust coated kits tend to last longer on the Passat because corrosion is a major cause of early rotor replacement on American Volkswagen Passat vehicles.
