Product Details
The Quality-Built Premium Brake Pads line is engineered around vehicle-specific friction compounds rather than a one-formula-fits-all approach. That means the 1001-0736M brake pad set is matched to the braking needs of the listed front applications, including 1997-1998 Saab 900 front and 1998 Volkswagen Passat front, plus 1999 Volkswagen Passat front through 05/99. The result is a direct-fit disc brake pad set focused on restoring like-new stopping response with dependable pedal feel.
MPA Electrical 1001-0736M is a practical choice for drivers looking for front brake pads for a 1998 Volkswagen Passat, front brake pads for a 1997 Saab 900, or front brake pads for a 1998 Saab 900. The part number 1001-0736M also helps confirm the correct application when comparing brake pad options by vehicle and position.
Common Problems This Part Can Address
- Reduced front braking response

Installation Notes and Tips
Install on the front axle only for the listed applications. Inspect rotors, calipers, and pad contact points before installation, and clean the bracket surfaces so the included abutment clips and pad shims seat correctly. Brake lubricant is not included, and mounting hardware is not listed as included, so verify reuse or replacement needs before service. After installation, follow the vehicle manufacturer’s bedding procedure for new pads.
