Dynamite Friction 4512-73164 Disc Brake Kit - Front
Front Brake Kit for Audi Performance Models
The Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads - Ceramic and Hardware kit is a front disc brake kit built for select Audi applications. Part number 4512-73164 combines coated rotors, ceramic brake pads, and brake hardware in one service package for a cleaner, more complete brake repair.
Compatible With 2012-2018 Audi A8 Quattro, 2013-2018 Audi S6, 2013-2018 Audi S7, 2013-2018 Audi S8, and 2016-2018 Audi A6 / A6 Quattro front brake service applications, including 400mm front rotors with Brembo 6-piston calipers where noted.
Key Features
- DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads with post-cured friction material
- Scorched pad surface to reduce initial break-in time
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise, vibration, and harshness control
- Dry-processed rotors that are ready to install without oil removal
- Non-directional rotor finish for more even pad bed-in and smoother braking
- OE-style brake hardware with PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel construction
Product Details
DFC 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are formulated for stable friction performance and consistent stopping response. The pads are post cured, then scorched to remove uncured bonding agents, which helps reduce the need for extended break-in. DFC GEOSPEC rotors are machined to tight tolerances, finished for quieter operation, and inspected for balance and critical dimensions to meet OE specifications. This makes part number 4512-73164 a practical choice for Audi A6, Audi A6 Quattro, Audi S6, Audi S7, Audi S8, and Audi A8 Quattro front brake service.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
What This Brake Kit Helps Address
- Brake noise from worn pads or fatigued hardware
- Uneven pad wear caused by corroded or weakened hardware
- Rotor rust and surface corrosion on exposed braking components
- Longer stopping distances from worn friction material
- Brake pulsation or rough braking feel from worn front rotors
Installation Notes
Install on the front axle only and verify rotor size, caliper type, and vehicle configuration before ordering. For 2016-2018 Audi A6 and A6 Quattro, this kit is listed for 400mm front rotors with Brembo 6-piston calipers. For 2013-2018 Audi S8, the fitment note specifies iron brake rotors. Clean mating surfaces, inspect caliper condition, and follow proper bedding procedures after installation.
Quality Assurance
DFC rotors are manufactured to OE-style specifications, processed dry, and inspected for balance and critical dimensions. The rotors include a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
