Brembo 09.A652.1X Disc Brake Rotor - Rear

Brembo UV Coated Rear Rotor Overview

The Brembo Premium Xtra Cross Drilled UV Coated Rotor is a direct replacement disc brake rotor built to meet or exceed OEM specifications. This rear rotor uses a drilled braking surface, high carbon cast iron construction where applicable, and a UV-coated finish to help protect exposed surfaces from corrosion.

Part number 09.A652.1X is engineered for select Audi TT and Volkswagen rear brake applications, including performance-oriented trims such as the Audi TT Quattro, Volkswagen Golf R32, and Volkswagen Jetta GLI. If you are replacing worn rear brake rotors on these vehicles, 09.A652.1X provides an OE-style fit with performance-focused construction.

Product Details

Brembo’s Premium Xtra Cross Drilled UV Coated Rotor line focuses on direct-fit replacement rotors with added surface protection and consistent braking performance. The UV coating is solvent-free and helps shield the disc from corrosion during daily use. The drilled surface supports heat dissipation, while the high carbon cast iron construction, where used, helps reduce brake noise and vibration for a more controlled driving feel. Part number 09.A652.1X is a rear vented rotor sized for 256 mm applications and is listed for 2000-2007 Audi TT and TT Quattro rear brake service, plus 2002-2007 Volkswagen Golf, Jetta, Golf City, and R32 rear applications. This part cross-references Raybestos Brakes 980131 for the same application.

What This Rotor Helps Address

• Rear brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotor surfaces
• Corrosion on exposed rotor surfaces
• Brake noise and vibration from aged rotors
• Reduced braking consistency from heat-stressed rear rotors
• Fitment issues when replacing OE-size 256 mm rear rotors

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm rear fitment by matching the 256 mm diameter, 65 mm centering diameter, and vented rotor design before installation. Replace rotors and pads together to restore braking performance, and pair this rotor with Brembo NAO/Ceramic or Low Met brake pad formulations when servicing the rear brakes. Use the included fixing screw kit during installation and verify minimum thickness markings before returning the vehicle to service.

Quality Assurance

Brembo manufactures this rotor as an OE-style replacement intended to meet or exceed original equipment specifications. The UV-coated finish, high carbon construction where applicable, and integrated wear marking support consistent serviceability for Audi TT, Audi TT Quattro, Volkswagen Golf, Volkswagen Jetta, and Volkswagen R32 rear brake applications.
