Product Details

Part number 4512-20051 is built for the front axle of the Jaguar S-Type and is specified for vehicles using 305mm front and 300mm rear rotors. The DFC GEOSPEC rotor coating helps resist rust, while the G3000/G11H18 cast iron construction is machined to OE-style tolerances for durability and stable braking performance. The 5000 Advanced pads are formulated for consistent friction output and use shims that help reduce brake noise and vibration. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Brake Service Issues

• Front brake noise, squeal, or vibration
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Uneven pad wear or reduced pedal feel
• Longer stopping distances from worn friction components
• Corrosion-related brake service on a Jaguar S-Type front axle

Installation Notes

Verify rotor size and front-axle fitment before installation. Clean the hub mounting surface, inspect caliper condition, and follow proper torque procedures during assembly. The rotors are shipped dry and do not require oil removal before installation. After installation, perform a controlled brake bed-in procedure to help establish even pad transfer.

Quality Assurance

Each DFC GEOSPEC rotor is 100% inspected for critical dimensions and balance, with vented rotors electronically mill-balanced when required. The rotors include a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
