Product Line Details

Brembo’s Premium Xtra Cross Drilled UV Coated Rotor line is developed as an OE-style replacement with added surface protection and a drilled face for drivers who want a performance-oriented rotor without changing the factory brake layout. The UV coating is solvent-free and helps protect exposed surfaces from corrosion while maintaining a clean appearance.

Detailed Description

Brembo 08.A540.1X is engineered for rear brake replacement on the 2012-2017 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque. The rotor uses grey cast iron for stable braking characteristics, while the drilled surface helps manage heat during repeated stops. Brembo also applies a UV coating to protect the disc and braking plate surfaces from rust. New intelligent marking locations identify the part number and minimum thickness for easier inspection during service. This rotor cross-references DuraGo BR901436 and Raybestos Brakes 980956R for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Brake pulsation caused by worn or uneven rear rotors
• Surface corrosion on exposed rotor areas
• Reduced braking consistency from heat buildup
• Noise and vibration associated with worn brake components
• Service issues during rear brake refresh on Range Rover Evoque models

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2012-2015 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, rear. Fits 2016-2017 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, rear. Replace rotors and pads together to restore braking performance. Verify rotor thickness, hub condition, and torque specifications during installation. Confirm fitment by part number 08.A540.1X before service.

Quality Assurance

Brembo develops this rotor as a direct replacement that meets or exceeds OEM specifications. The UV-coated finish, drilled surface, and cast iron construction are selected to support dependable braking performance and long-term durability in normal service.
