Dynamite Friction 4512-73160 Disc Brake Kit - Front
Front Brake Kit for Audi A6 and A7 Quattro
The Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads - Ceramic and Hardware kit is a front disc brake kit built for OE-style service on select Audi applications. Part number 4512-73160 combines coated rotors, ceramic pads, and matching brake hardware for a complete front brake refresh.
Key Features
- Front disc brake kit for select Audi A6, Audi A6 Quattro, and Audi A7 Quattro applications
- DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads with post-cured friction material
- Scorched pads for reduced initial break-in time and more immediate stopping response
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise, vibration, and harshness control
- Rotors machined to tight tolerances with a non-directional finish for smoother pad bedding
- 100% inspected rotors with balance correction on vented designs
- 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship on the rotors
Product Line Details
DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors are processed dry and shipped dry, so they arrive ready for installation without the need to clean off oil. The coating is designed to resist rust better than conventional paint or zinc finishes, while the rotor casting is made to OEM-style G3000/G11H18 cast iron specifications for durability and stability. The 5000 Advanced pad line is formulated for consistent friction performance and uses OE-style shims to help control brake noise.
Detailed Description
Part number 4512-73160 is a front brake service kit for 2012 Audi A6 Quattro, 2014-2015 Audi A6, 2014-2015 Audi A6 Quattro, and 2014-2015 Audi A7 Quattro. It is a practical choice for drivers looking for a front brake kit for Audi A6 Quattro 345mm rotor applications or a front brake replacement for Audi A7 Quattro models that need coated rotors and ceramic pads in one package. This kit is engineered to support stable braking performance, smoother stops, and cleaner rotor appearance over time.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Brake noise from worn hardware or pad shims
- Uneven pad wear caused by fatigued brake hardware
- Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
- Longer pedal response from worn front brake components
- Vibration or harshness during braking
Installation Notes and Tips
Compatible With front axle service only. Verify rotor size and vehicle configuration before ordering, especially on 2012 Audi A6 Quattro applications noted with 345mm front disc rotors. Clean installation surfaces, inspect calipers and slides, and follow proper bedding procedures after installation to help the pads and rotors seat evenly.
Quality Assurance
DFC machines each rotor to tight tolerances, applies a non-directional finish, and inspects critical dimensions before release. Vented rotors are balance-checked and corrected when needed, and every rotor is backed by a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
