• Outside diameter of 13.78 inches (350 mm) suitable for specific Audi models
• Five mounting bolt holes with a 4.41 inch (112 mm) bolt circle diameter
• Non-directional brake surface for versatile installation
• Conventional rotor type without ABS tone ring included

Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR901682 disc brake rotor is constructed from full cast iron, providing a durable and heat-resistant braking surface. Its vented design allows air to flow between the rotor faces, helping to dissipate heat more effectively during braking. This reduces the risk of brake fade and extends rotor life. With a nominal thickness of 1.1 inches (28 mm) and a discard thickness of 1.02 inches (26 mm), this rotor meets the specifications required for safe and effective braking performance.

Measuring 13.78 inches (350 mm) in outside diameter and featuring five mounting bolt holes on a 4.41 inch (112 mm) bolt circle, the BR901682 is compatible with a range of Audi vehicles including the A8 Quattro, e-tron Quattro, Q7, Q8, S6, S7, S8, and their respective sportback and SQ variants. The rotor’s non-directional surface allows for flexible installation without concern for rotation direction, and it does not include an ABS tone ring, so it is intended for vehicles with separate ABS components.

• Audi e-tron Quattro, e-tron S, e-tron Sportback, e-tron S Sportback
• Audi Q7, Q8, Q8 e-tron, Q8 e-tron Sportback
• Audi S6, S7, S7 Sportback, S8
• Audi SQ7, SQ8, SQ8 e-tron, SQ8 e-tron Sportback

Common Issues Addressed by This Rotor

• Brake rotor warping causing vibration during braking
• Reduced braking efficiency due to worn or thin rotors
• Overheating and brake fade from insufficient heat dissipation
• Uneven brake pad wear linked to rotor surface irregularities
• Noise and pulsation caused by damaged or scored rotors

Installation Notes and Tips

• Ensure rotor thickness is above discard thickness before installation
• Clean mounting surface to prevent rotor runout and vibration
• Torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications for secure fitment
• Inspect brake pads and replace if worn to ensure optimal rotor performance
• Check for compatibility with vehicle ABS system as this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring
