Product Details and Specifications

The BC182571 disc brake caliper from MPA Electrical is a remanufactured component designed to meet OEM specifications for braking systems on various Audi and Volkswagen models.

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the brake system is properly bled after installation to remove air and maintain hydraulic pressure. Verify that the mounting bracket and caliper slides are securely installed to prevent caliper movement issues. Use the correct inlet thread size of 12.0 mm for brake line connections. Inspect brake pads separately as this caliper does not include pads. Follow manufacturer torque specifications for mounting hardware to ensure safety and performance.
