Product Details

The DFC Rotors-Drilled and Slotted-Silver line is engineered as a performance-focused brake rotor option with OE-matching cast iron specifications. Each rotor is machined to tight tolerances, then finished to promote quieter, smoother stops and consistent pad contact.

These rotors are also listed for 2011-2015 Buick Regal, 2016 Chevrolet Malibu Limited, and 2011 Saab 9-5. The Saab application notes a 296mm front disc requirement. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Brake Issues Addressed

• Brake fade from excess rotor heat
• Uneven pad contact and glazing
• Brake dust and debris buildup on the rotor surface
• Longer stopping distances in wet conditions
• Rotor vibration caused by inconsistent balance or finish

Installation Notes

Verify rotor diameter and brake package before installation, especially on the 2011 Saab 9-5 with the 296mm front disc note. Clean the rotor surfaces before service, follow proper torque procedures, and bed in new pads according to the pad manufacturer’s instructions for consistent results.
