Bosch Solid Brake Discs - 0986479D47

These specific discs (0986479D47) are designed for the rear axle of Ford S-MAX TDCi 2.0D models from 2015 onwards. Always verify compatibility with your vehicle's exact year, model, and engine using the provided dimensions and specifications.

A solid brake rotor is a single, non-ventilated disc. It is a common design for rear axles and provides reliable braking for general use. Vented rotors have internal vanes for better heat dissipation.

After installation, perform 5-10 moderate stops from around 30-40 mph down to 10 mph without coming to a complete stop. Then, perform 2-3 harder stops from 50-60 mph down to 15 mph. Avoid heavy braking for the first 200 miles. Consult your mechanic for precise instructions.

ECE-R90 is a European standard that ensures replacement brake parts perform similarly to original equipment (OE) parts in terms of safety, stopping distance, and thermal behavior.

The lifespan of brake discs varies greatly depending on driving conditions, driving style, and the quality of brake pads used. However, Bosch discs are known for their durability and quality manufacturing, designed to provide long service life when properly maintained and used.

While technically possible if you have the correct tools and mechanical knowledge, brake system work is critical for safety. Professional installation by a qualified mechanic is highly recommended to ensure correct fitment and function.

The 0986479D87 is listed as a previous part number or an alternative that this disc (0986479D47) replaces or is cross-referenced with. You should always confirm the exact fitment for your vehicle, but this indicates a direct replacement or updated version.

This can be caused by uneven rotor surface, warped discs, or an improperly seated caliper. Ensure the wheel hub is clean, the rotor is correctly mounted, and the caliper is functioning properly. A bedding-in procedure may also help.

Often related to brake pads. Check the condition and material of the brake pads. Ensure anti-squeal shims are correctly installed. Minor surface rust can cause temporary noise until worn off.

Check brake fluid level and condition. Inspect brake pads for wear. Ensure there are no air bubbles in the brake lines. Verify the discs and pads are properly bedded-in.

Surface rust can appear, especially after exposure to moisture. This is normal and should dissipate after normal braking. If deep corrosion or pitting occurs, inspect the disc for damage.
