Detailed Description

Brembo P85147X is part of the XTRA Low-Met line, a product line focused on low-metallic brake pad formulations for drivers who want a performance-oriented replacement pad with OE-style fitment coverage. This pad set is listed for front applications across multiple Volkswagen and Audi platforms, including the Volkswagen Jetta, Volkswagen Taos, and Audi Q3, along with several Golf-family models. The low-metallic compound and 20 mm overall thickness support consistent pad replacement on the listed applications, while the sensor-ready design helps maintain compatibility with vehicles equipped for pad wear monitoring.

This part cross-references Akebono EURO EUR1760 and NTK 25683 for the same application. The Brembo P85147X reference is also useful when comparing catalog listings for the same front brake pad set across supported Volkswagen and Audi fitments.

What It Helps Address

• Brake pad wear on supported front brake systems.
• Reduced braking consistency from worn friction material.
• Loss of sensor-ready pad monitoring on equipped vehicles.
• Need for a performance-grade replacement pad with catalog-matched fitment.
• Replacement needs on Volkswagen and Audi front brake applications.

Installation Notes

Verify the vehicle’s year, model, and front brake configuration against the fitment list before installation. Confirm pad wear sensor requirements and compare the existing pad dimensions to the listed specifications, including 65 mm inner pad height, 160 mm inner pad width, and 20 mm overall thickness. Brake lubricant is not included.

Quality Assurance

Brembo is a recognized brake component manufacturer, and the XTRA Low-Met line is positioned as a performance-focused pad family for select European vehicle applications. Part number P85147X should be matched to the exact catalog listing before installation.
