Product Details

The 4512-31281 brake kit is engineered to match OE-style fit, form, and function for front brake service on BMW X5 and BMW X6 models in the listed years. The coated rotors are made from G3000/G11H18 cast iron, machined to tight tolerances, and inspected for balance and critical dimensions. The coating helps resist rust, while the dry finish eliminates the need to clean oil from the rotor before installation. The DFC 5000 Advanced pads are post cured and scorched to reduce initial break-in time and deliver stable friction from the first stop. DFC brake hardware is included to replace worn, fatigued, or corroded components that can contribute to noise and uneven wear. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Brake Issues This Kit Can Address

• Brake pulsation from worn or uneven front rotors
• Squealing or noise caused by aged pads and hardware
• Reduced stopping performance from worn friction material
• Corrosion on exposed rotor surfaces
• Uneven pad wear from fatigued brake hardware

Installation Notes

Install on the front axle only for the listed BMW applications. Verify rotor size, caliper clearance, and vehicle build details before service. Clean the hub face thoroughly, inspect calipers and slides, and follow proper bedding procedures after installation to promote even pad transfer and consistent braking.

Quality Assurance

DFC GEOSPEC rotors are backed by a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. Each rotor is inspected for critical specifications, and the brake pads are post cured and assembled with premium shims for consistent performance and NVH control. Part number 4512-31281 is built for dependable front brake service on the specified BMW X5 and BMW X6 models.
