Pagid 355790342 Disc Brake Caliper - Front Right

Disc Brake Caliper Overview

This Pagid disc brake caliper is a standard replacement unit built for European applications that require precise hydraulic control and OE-level fitment. Part number 355790342 is a front right caliper for Volkswagen and Audi models, with fitment that spans multiple years and chassis-specific applications.

Key Features

• Floating caliper design with a 54.00 mm piston for consistent brake application.
• Cast iron caliper body with a powder-coated gray finish.
• Steel piston construction for durable hydraulic operation.
• Bleeder screw, caliper slides, and mounting hardware are included.
• Standard replacement grade for direct service use.

Detailed Description

Pagid 355790342 is engineered as a front right disc brake caliper for Volkswagen Cabrio, Jetta, Golf, Passat, and Scirocco applications, as well as Audi 4000 Quattro and Coupe models. The floating design uses a single 54.00 mm piston to deliver controlled clamping force, while the cast iron housing and powder-coated finish support long-term service in demanding brake systems. This part cross-references Volkswagen/Audi OE numbers such as 357615124A and 443615124 for the same application.

HELLA brake calipers are developed to meet the requirements of different vehicle types, braking loads, and system characteristics. Each unit is tested to align with OE standards for safety and performance, making 355790342 a practical choice for restoring proper brake function on Volkswagen and Audi platforms.

What It Helps Fix

• Uneven or weak braking from a worn caliper assembly.
• Brake drag caused by sticking caliper slides or piston movement.
• Hydraulic leakage at the caliper body or bleeder area.
• Corrosion-related caliper wear on older brake systems.
• Reduced braking response from an aging front right caliper.

Installation Notes

Compatible With front right brake service on the listed Volkswagen and Audi applications. Verify chassis/VIN notes for 1989-1990 Jetta and Passat applications before ordering. Mounting hardware, mounting bolts, bleeder screw, and caliper slides are included; the mounting bracket is not included. Confirm brake line thread size and piston specifications during installation.

Quality Assurance

Pagid and HELLA brake calipers undergo extensive testing to meet OE standards for fit, safety, and performance. Part number 355790342 is built as a standard replacement caliper for service work on compatible Volkswagen and Audi brake systems.
