Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These brake discs are intended as a direct replacement for the original part number 17747. Installation should only be performed by a competent individual or qualified mechanic. This typically involves removing the wheel, caliper, and old brake disc, then fitting the new disc and reassembling the braking system. It is crucial to follow the vehicle manufacturer's torque specifications for all fasteners.
Compatibility:
- Confirm that your vehicle is listed for use with Febi part number 22994 and that it requires front brake discs with a 260mm diameter, 22mm thickness, 67mm centering diameter, and 112mm bolt hole circle diameter.
- These discs are designed to replace OE part number 17747.
- Always consult your vehicle's manual or a parts specialist to verify fitment before purchase and installation.
Care:
- Bedding-in: After installation, a bedding-in procedure is recommended to ensure optimal performance and longevity. This usually involves a series of moderate stops from various speeds without coming to a complete halt, followed by a period of cool-down. Consult your installer or vehicle manual for specific bedding-in instructions.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect brake discs for signs of wear, such as deep grooves, scoring, or warping. Check the minimum thickness specification (19.4mm) to determine if replacement is needed.
- Cleaning: Keep the brake area clean. Avoid using high-pressure water directly on the brakes. A gentle wash with water and mild soap during vehicle washing is sufficient.
