Detailed Description

The Akebono Euro Ultra Premium Ceramic Pad line is built for European vehicles that require stable braking performance and refined operation. EUR1760 is a front disc brake pad set used on select Audi A3, A3 Quattro, Q3, S3, RS3, TT Quattro, and Volkswagen Golf, GTI, Jetta, Arteon, Taos, Passat, and e-Golf models across multiple model years. Fitment varies by brake code, rotor size, wear sensor setup, and whether abutment clips are used, so matching the exact vehicle configuration is important.

Akebono Brake Corporation developed ceramic brake technology and supplies advanced friction products with technical centers in Japan, the United States, and France. That background shows in the EUR1760 product line, which is aimed at drivers who want OE-style brake feel and consistent front axle performance. This part number, EUR1760, is a practical choice for Audi A3 front brake pad replacement and Volkswagen Golf front brake pad replacement where the listed brake codes and notes match.
