Troubleshooting

Brake squealing after installation

Ensure pads were installed correctly with all hardware. A proper bedding-in procedure may resolve initial squealing. If persistent, check for rotor runout or contamination.

Brake warning light is on

This could indicate the wear warning contact has been triggered, meaning the pads need replacement. Check connections to the wear sensor if applicable.

Reduced braking performance

Verify correct installation and ensure the brake system is free of air or leaks. Check brake fluid level and condition. Ensure the correct pad type is installed for the vehicle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

These brake pads are designed to fit the front axle of Audi A5 models manufactured between 2007 and 2017. The part number is Febi 116021. Always verify fitment with your specific vehicle's VIN or by consulting a professional if unsure.

Setup (Installation):

Installation of brake pads should be performed by a qualified mechanic. The process typically involves removing the wheel, caliper, and old pads, then installing the new pads with the included hardware (piston clip, bolts/screws). It is critical to follow the manufacturer's service information and torque specifications. A bedding-in procedure is usually recommended after installation to ensure optimal performance.

Care:

  • Regular Inspection: Visually inspect the brake pads during routine maintenance. Look for uneven wear or damage.
  • Listen for Squealing: Unusual noises during braking can indicate worn pads or issues with the braking system.
  • Brake Pad Wear Indicator: Pay attention to the dashboard warning light or audible squeal from the wear indicator, signaling the need for replacement.
  • Keep Clean: While not directly user-serviceable beyond cleaning associated components during brake service, avoid introducing contaminants to the braking system.
