Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these brake discs suitable for all Mondeo Mk5 models?

These specific discs (Bosch 0986479D85) are designed for the front axle of FORD MONDEO Mk5 vehicles from 2014 onwards. Always double-check your vehicle's specifications for exact fitment.

Do I need to buy brake pads as well?

This product is for the brake discs only. It is highly recommended to replace brake pads at the same time as brake discs for optimal performance and safety. Ensure the pads are compatible with these discs.

What does 'vented' mean for a brake disc?

Vented brake discs have internal passages or fins that allow air to flow through them. This helps to dissipate heat generated during braking, preventing overheating and maintaining consistent stopping power.

How do I know if my brake discs need replacing?

Signs include a vibrating steering wheel or brake pedal, grinding noises, longer stopping distances, and visible damage such as deep scoring, cracks, or a minimum thickness reached.

What is the ECE-R90 norm?

ECE-R90 is a regulation that ensures replacement brake discs and pads meet or exceed the performance characteristics of the original equipment parts. It guarantees a certain level of safety and quality.

Can I install these myself?

While technically possible, brake system work requires precision and safety knowledge. It is strongly recommended to have brake discs installed by a qualified professional mechanic.

What is the benefit of the coating on these discs?

The coating provides protection against corrosion and rust, especially during storage or in humid conditions. This ensures a clean braking surface and extends the aesthetic life of the disc.

Troubleshooting

Brake judder or vibration

This can be caused by uneven disc wear, contamination, or improper installation. Ensure the discs are properly seated, torqued, and that brake pads are compatible and bedded-in correctly. Warped discs may need replacement.

Squealing or noise during braking

Noise can result from brake pad material, contamination, or worn components. Ensure brake pads are suitable for the discs and that all mounting hardware is secure. Sometimes, a light coating of brake grease on the back of pads (not on the friction surface) can help.

Reduced braking effectiveness

Check for brake fluid leaks, worn brake pads, or glazed discs. The vented design helps prevent fade, but persistent issues may indicate a problem with the entire braking system (e.g., master cylinder, calipers).

Rust on disc surface

Light surface rust can form overnight or after exposure to moisture. This usually wears off after the first few brake applications. Excessive rust, especially on the friction surface or edges, may indicate a need for replacement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets strict ECE-R90 safety standards.
  • Coated for improved corrosion resistance and longevity.
  • Vented design aids in heat dissipation for consistent braking.
  • High-carbon construction offers better performance.
  • Designed for a precise fit on specific Ford Mondeo models.

Cons

  • Specific fitment may limit compatibility with other vehicle makes/models.
  • Higher carbon content may produce slightly more noise under certain conditions compared to standard discs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

Installation of brake discs should always be performed by a qualified mechanic. This ensures the discs are mounted correctly, torqued to specification, and that the braking system is properly bled if necessary. Improper installation can lead to safety issues and premature wear.

Compatibility:

This specific pair of brake discs (Bosch 0986479D85) is designed for the front axle of FORD MONDEO Mk5 vehicles manufactured from 2014 onwards. Always verify your vehicle's specific requirements before purchasing. Key dimensions include an outer diameter of 300mm, a height of 51.2mm, and a bolt hole circle of 108mm.

Care:

Brake discs are a wear item and require regular inspection.

  1. Visual Inspection: Check for excessive wear, scoring, glazing, or cracks.
  2. Cleaning: If the discs become dirty, a brake cleaner spray can be used. Ensure the vehicle is safely supported before cleaning.
  3. Pad Compatibility: Always use brake pads that are compatible with the disc type. Using incorrect pads can lead to reduced performance and damage.
  4. Break-in Procedure: New brake discs and pads typically require a break-in period. Follow the manufacturer's recommended procedure (often involving a series of moderate stops) to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
