Buy Rear Brake Pads (2K5 698 451 C) for Volkswagen – Genuine VW Parts in Stock

Restore your Volkswagen’s braking efficiency and safety with Genuine Volkswagen Rear Brake Pads (Part Number: 2K5 698 451 C). Designed specifically for the rigorous demands of your vehicle, these pads ensure optimal stopping distance, quiet operation, and long-lasting durability.

Product Overview

Brake pads are essential for your vehicle’s safety, directly influencing your stopping performance and the efficiency of electronic systems like ABS and ESP. The 2K5 698 451 C is a genuine Volkswagen Group component, engineered to match your vehicle’s braking geometry and hydraulic pressure requirements perfectly.

Unlike generic aftermarket alternatives, which may lead to excessive brake dust, premature disc wear, or irritating squealing noises, these genuine pads feature high-grade friction compounds and anti-vibration shims. By choosing authentic OEM parts, you ensure your Volkswagen maintains the high engineering standards set at the factory.

Compatibility & Fitment

This brake pad set is primarily designed for Volkswagen Commercial and Caddy-platform models.

• Primary Applications: Widely compatible with various VW Caddy models and other commercial-platform variants.

• OEM Part Number: 2K5 698 451 C.

• Importance of Correct Fitment: Braking systems often vary by model year, load capacity, and engine configuration. Please provide your VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) during checkout. We will verify that this part number is the precise match for your specific vehicle build.

How They Work

Your rear brake pads work by creating controlled friction against the rear brake discs (rotors). This friction converts the kinetic energy of the vehicle into thermal energy, allowing for safe and predictable deceleration.

When to Replace Your Brake Pads:

• Wear Limit: Once the friction material drops below 3mm, efficiency decreases and the risk of disc damage increases.

• Metallic Grinding: Indicates the pad material is fully gone, causing the backing plate to score the brake disc.

• Warning Light: If your vehicle is equipped with a brake pad wear sensor, a dashboard warning light will alert you when it is time for replacement.

• Brake Squeal: While sometimes normal, persistent squealing often indicates poor pad quality or damaged anti-rattle components.

Performance & Safety Benefits

• Factory-Specified Friction: Engineered for consistent performance under both light city braking and heavier loaded commercial conditions.

• Perfect Integration: Designed to seat correctly in your calipers, preventing “binding” or uneven wear patterns.

• Long-Term Reliability: Formulated to withstand high heat without “glazing,” ensuring your stopping distance remains optimal.

• Quiet Operation: Includes factory-specified backing plates and shims to prevent unwanted noise.

Build Quality & Engineering

• Authentic Compound: Developed by Volkswagen engineering teams to ensure optimal interaction with the disc surface.

• Corrosion Resistance: The backing plates are treated to withstand the harsh, wet, and salty conditions common on UK roads, preventing the rust-jacking that can cause pads to stick in the caliper.

• Rigorous Testing: Tested to endure thousands of braking events to ensure maximum safety and consistency.

Installation & Maintenance

• Complete Axle Set: This part number provides a complete set for the rear axle (both the left and right wheels).

• The “Disc & Pad” Rule: If your current brake discs are worn, grooved, or have a significant “lip” at the edge, we strongly recommend replacing them alongside your pads to ensure safety and proper contact.

• Professional Fitting: We recommend professional installation, particularly for vehicles with Electronic Parking Brakes (EPB), which often require diagnostic tools to retract the motors safely.
