ThermoQuiet Product Line

Wagner ThermoQuiet brake pads are positioned for drivers who want OE-style fit and quieter operation in everyday driving. The line uses a ceramic friction formulation and noise-reduction features that help maintain stable pedal feel while reducing brake noise on the rear axle.

Detailed Description

Wagner Brake PD1017 is a rear disc brake pad set for a wide range of Audi and Volkswagen models, including rear brake pad replacement for 2014-2018 Volkswagen Jetta, 2010-2013 Audi A3, 2004-2005 Audi Allroad Quattro, and 2001-2004 Volkswagen Jetta applications. It also covers select rear fitments for Volkswagen Beetle, Golf, Passat, Polo, Vento, Golf R, Golf SportWagen, Jetta City, and Audi A6-family vehicles. The ceramic friction material, slotted pad surface, chamfered edges, and included shims are all aimed at controlled braking and reduced noise. This part cross-references CX1017 and PGD1017M for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Rear brake noise during stops
• Brake pad replacement on worn ceramic rear pads
• Uneven braking feel from aged friction material
• Service needs on OE-spec rear disc brake pad applications
• Fitment-specific replacement for Audi A3 rear brake pads and Volkswagen Jetta rear brake pads

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rotor diameter, brake system type, and VIN or chassis notes before installation, especially on model years with OE ceramic pad requirements or Girling brake applications. Inspect rotors, caliper hardware, and pad contact surfaces before fitting the new pads. Because pad wear sensors are not included and abutment clips are not included, confirm the vehicle’s existing hardware condition and reuse only serviceable components.

Quality Assurance

Wagner Brake ThermoQuiet pads are engineered to meet OE specifications on listed applications and use a zero-copper ceramic friction formulation with IMI noise-control technology for consistent rear brake service.
