Product Details

The silver zinc coating on this DFC brake caliper is a key detail, offering solid protection against rust and corrosion. This matters because a seized or corroded caliper can lead to uneven braking, premature pad wear, and even pull to one side. This caliper is built to replace the original on your 2012 or 2013 Audi A6 or A7 Quattro, helping to restore proper brake function.

DFC makes this caliper as a direct replacement, meaning it's designed to bolt right up where the factory one came off. The silver zinc finish isn't just for looks; it's a practical choice that helps the caliper hold up better in all sorts of weather, keeping your brakes working smoothly. When you're replacing a caliper, it's often a good idea to check the brake hose and hardware as well, to make sure everything is in top shape for safe and effective braking.
