FAQs

What vehicles is this Bosch rear brake pad set compatible with?

This specific part number (0 986 494 340) is designed for rear axles, but exact vehicle compatibility must be determined by cross-referencing the part number with your vehicle's specific make, model, and year. Professional consultation or a vehicle lookup tool is recommended.

How do I know when these brake pads need replacing?

These pads feature an acoustic wear warning system. When the pad material wears down to a minimum thickness, a metal tab will contact the rotor, creating an audible squealing sound to alert you.

Are these brake pads suitable for track use?

This brake pad set is designed for standard road use and meets ECE-R90 certification. For track or heavy performance driving, specialized brake pads may be required.

What is the ECE-R90 certification?

ECE-R90 is a European regulation ensuring that replacement brake pads meet or exceed the performance of the original equipment pads in terms of safety, performance, and durability.

Does this set include new hardware or shims?

This product is a brake pad set. It typically includes the brake pads themselves. Hardware kits and anti-squeal shims may be sold separately depending on the application.

What are the physical dimensions of the brake pads?

The dimensions are: Height: 43.9 mm, Width: 95.9 mm, and Thickness: 14.1 mm.

What is the WVA number associated with this part?

The WVA number for this brake pad set is 23284.

Troubleshooting

Brake squealing or grinding after installation.

This can be due to improper bedding-in, missing anti-squeal shims, or contamination. Ensure pads are correctly installed, bedded-in according to manufacturer guidelines, and that all hardware is present and clean.

Brake pedal feels spongy or goes too far down.

Check brake fluid level and condition. Inspect brake lines for leaks and ensure the caliper is properly seated and bled if necessary. This issue may not be directly related to the pads themselves but the overall braking system.

Acoustic wear warning not functioning.

Verify that the wear indicator tab is correctly installed and making contact. Check the wiring connection for the warning sensor, if applicable to your vehicle system.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Installation of these brake pads should be performed by a qualified mechanic. The product must be determined on the vehicle to ensure correct fitment and alignment with the brake caliper and rotor. Follow manufacturer-recommended torque specifications for caliper bolts.

Compatibility:

While this set is designed for the rear axle, always verify compatibility with your specific vehicle make, model, and year using the part number (0 986 494 340) and cross-referencing with your vehicle's service manual or a reputable parts catalog. Cross-references with other brands like APEC (PAD1189), ATE (13 0460 2858 2), and BREMBO (P59037) can aid in confirming fitment.

Care:

Brake pads are a wear item. Regular inspection (every 6 months or 10,000 miles) is recommended. Clean the surrounding brake components (caliper, rotor) during replacement. Ensure the wear warning contact is properly seated and connected if applicable.
