Product Details

The DFC 4000 HybriDynamic Brake Pads line is focused on simplifying brake pad selection by using a hybrid compound that delivers predictable braking behavior across normal driving conditions. Part number 4000-0178-00 is a front brake pad set for classic Toyota compact and midsize models, including Toyota Corolla, Toyota Celica, and Toyota Corona front brake applications. The pad shape and material construction are designed for consistent contact, controlled noise, and reduced brake dust compared with many conventional street pads.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Brake fade or inconsistent pedal feel during routine driving
• Excessive brake dust buildup on front wheels
• Brake noise from worn or low-quality pad material
• Reduced braking response from aging front pads
• Front brake service on older Toyota Corolla, Celica, and Corona models

Verify rotor condition, caliper operation, and pad fitment before installation. Because mounting hardware is not included, reuse or replace the existing hardware as needed during service. Confirm the vehicle’s front brake configuration against the listed applications for 1971-1979 Toyota Corolla, 1971-1975 Toyota Celica, and 1971-1974 Toyota Corona models before ordering.
