Detailed Description

The Wagner Brake EC1760 disc brake pad set is engineered for front brake service on a range of Volkswagen and Audi models, including the Volkswagen Jetta, Volkswagen Taos, and Audi Q3. Its ceramic construction and OE-style formulation are aimed at consistent pedal response and low-noise operation during routine commuting. The EC1760 part number and FMSI 8989-D1760 identification help confirm the correct pad profile during brake service.

Wagner’s Essentials line focuses on practical replacement parts for everyday use, combining fitment accuracy with a cost-conscious design. For Audi A3, Volkswagen GTI, and related front brake applications, this pad set provides the friction characteristics and sensor compatibility needed for a clean service replacement.

What It Helps Address

• Squealing or noisy front brake operation.
• Worn friction material that reduces stopping performance.
• Brake wear sensor replacement needs on supported vehicles.
• Uneven pad contact caused by worn or incorrect pad shape.
• Routine front brake service on commuter vehicles.

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the front application, pad shape, and sensor style before installation. The EC1760 includes abutment clips, but mounting hardware and pad shims are not included. Confirm rotor condition and caliper hardware during service, and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake bedding procedure after installation.

Quality Assurance

Wagner Brake backs the Essentials line with OE-style engineering and a formulation intended for consistent everyday braking performance. The EC1760 is identified by FMSI 8989-D1760 for fitment verification during parts selection.
