Brakes and Traction Control: Application and ID






Brakes PR Codes

The following tables show the PR number code key. This is important in order to know the brake caliper/brake rotor and brake pad combination.
















Hairline cracks on brake rotor friction surfaces are often observed during brake repairs. Hairline cracks up to 10 mm long are not a technical flaw and are not cause for brake rotor replacement.

Brake rotors with friction surfaces that have worn through should be replaced.






Ceramic brakes are installed only in the front on this model.

Hairline cracks on the friction surface on ceramic brakes occur during the manufacturing process and can be found on new brakes in different stampings. Hairline cracks on the friction surfaces are not a reason to exchange the ceramic brake rotors.

Every brake rotor has a singed groove to recognize the wear limit. If the brake rotor friction surface the groove are worn down to an even level, the brake rotor wear limit has been reached.






The brake system installed in a vehicle is indicated on the vehicle data label by the relevant PR number - A and B -.
