PowerStop S2570 Disc Brake Caliper Set - Rear

Rear Brake Caliper Set for Audi and Volkswagen

PowerStop S2570 is a rear disc brake caliper set built for select Audi TT, Audi A3, Volkswagen Beetle, Volkswagen Golf, and Volkswagen Jetta applications.

Detailed Description

PowerStop Performance Brake Calipers are built for drivers who want a direct OE-style rear caliper replacement with added corrosion protection and a cleaner appearance. The red powder-coated finish helps resist rust and brake dust buildup, while the remanufactured aluminum housing and steel piston support dependable rear brake function. This S2570 caliper set is a practical choice for Audi TT rear brake caliper replacement, Audi A3 rear brake caliper replacement, and Volkswagen rear brake caliper service where the original unit has worn, seized, or begun leaking.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
