Detailed Description

Pagid 355783332 is engineered for rear left brake applications on the Volkswagen Passat and Audi A4 and A6 platforms listed above. The fixed caliper design, aluminum construction, and steel piston support consistent hydraulic response, while the included bracket, slides, and bleeder screw simplify service replacement. The powder-coated finish adds corrosion resistance for everyday road use. Part number 355783332 is also cross-referenced to 8E0615423 for the same application.

Common Replacement Issues

  • Leaking caliper seals or fluid loss at the brake corner
  • Sticking piston or uneven pad contact
  • Corrosion on the caliper body or bleeder area
  • Brake drag, pull, or reduced braking consistency

Installation Notes

Verify the rear left position and confirm the 1997 Audi A4 chassis/VIN break before ordering. Match the inlet and bleeder thread sizes to the existing brake line and service fittings. Bleeding the brake system after installation is required to restore proper pedal feel and hydraulic operation.

Quality Assurance

Pagid brake calipers are tested to meet OE standards for safety and performance. HELLA brake calipers are engineered for a wide range of European applications and are validated through extensive testing before release.
