What This Product Does:
- Replacing worn or heat-damaged rear rotor
- Installing fresh rear brake pads for stronger, smoother stopping power
- Restoring correct brake-pad wear monitoring with a new sensor
- Reducing brake noise, vibration, and pulsation
- Improving rear-axle stability during braking
- Returning the braking system to factory Porsche performance
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
- Squealing or screeching noises from the rear wheels
- Grinding noises (pads worn into the rotor)
- Brake pedal vibration or pulsation
- Longer stopping distances
- Brake warning light triggered by worn pads or sensor failure
- Visible rotor grooves, heat spots, cracks, or scoring
- Soft or inconsistent brake pedal feel
- Excessive brake dust or uneven pad wear
- Rear instability or sway while braking
Why Replacement Matters:
- Rear brakes provide essential stability under braking. Fresh discs and pads restore safe, predictable stopping.
- New rotors and pads bring back factory stopping power and smooth pedal response.
- Worn pads can damage rotors, and warped rotors destroy new pads. Replacing everything together prevents costly follow-up repairs.
- Brake squeal, judder, and pedal shaking are often caused by uneven or worn rear rotors.
- A new sensor keeps the brake warning system functioning correctly so you never run pads too low.
- Doing pads, discs, and sensors together reduces labour time and ensures the entire system wears evenly.
- Proper brake maintenance keeps your Porsche reliable, enjoyable, and desirable.
