The rotor design uses G3000\/G11H18 cast iron and OE-style machining tolerances, with balance inspection on vented rotors and final inspection of critical dimensions. The coated surface helps resist rust better than conventional paint or zinc finishes, while the dry packaging avoids the need to clean oil from the rotor before installation. The pad set is formulated for stable friction, with scorching to reduce initial break-in and shims to improve NVH control. This part number is 4502-73045.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis part cross-references Monroe Shocks \u0026amp; Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Problems This Kit Can Address\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear brake noise during stopping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotor rust on exposed braking surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUneven pad bedding after brake service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake vibration caused by worn rear rotors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced stopping performance from worn pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible With 1996 Audi A4, rear and 1997 Audi A4, rear, vehicle production date to February. Verify rear axle application before ordering and compare the existing rotor dimensions and pad shape to the original parts. The rotors are shipped dry and ready for installation, which can reduce prep time during a standard rear brake service. For consistent results, clean the hub mounting surface and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake service procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach rotor is machined to tight tolerances, inspected for balance where applicable, and checked against OE specifications.
