Product Details

DFC is known for making reliable brake components, and this front left premium caliper is a solid choice for your 1999-2010 Volkswagen Beetle. When you're replacing your brake pads or rotors, it's often a good time to inspect your calipers. If yours is sticking, leaking, or just not performing like it used to, this caliper is built to get your braking system back in good working order.

This caliper features a silver zinc coating. That's a practical finish that helps keep corrosion at bay, especially in areas where road salt or moisture is common. It's designed to fit right onto your Beetle, making the installation process straightforward when you're working on the front brake assembly. Having a properly functioning caliper is key to ensuring your brake pads make even contact with the rotor, which means consistent stopping power.
