Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the WVA number?

The WVA number is a universal reference code (25915 for this model) used to identify specific brake pad shapes and technical specifications.

Does this set include pads for all four wheels?

No, this set is designed specifically for the front axle.

How thick are these pads?

These pads feature a thickness of 15.6 mm.

Are these ceramic pads?

No, these are low-metallic pads, which are generally prized for their consistent braking performance.

What happens when the acoustic wear sensor activates?

The sensor will produce a high-pitched sound, indicating that the friction material is low and the pads should be inspected and likely replaced soon.

Can I install these pads myself?

If you have experience with automotive repair, the included manual makes installation straightforward, but it is highly recommended to have a professional verify the install for safety.

Troubleshooting

Brakes are squeaking immediately after installation

Ensure anti-squeak plates are correctly seated and that a thin layer of brake grease has been applied to the back of the pads (where the pad touches the piston).

The acoustic wear warning sounds prematurely

Check that the wear sensor is properly clipped into the caliper and that there is no debris preventing it from sitting correctly.

Brake pedal feels spongy

Spongy pedals are typically caused by air in the brake lines, not the pads themselves. Perform a brake fluid flush or bleed the system.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets ECE-R90 safety standards
  • Reduces noise through integrated anti-squeak plates
  • Includes wear warning contacts for safety monitoring
  • Precise dimensions for easy front axle installation

Cons

  • Specific to front-axle applications only
  • Requires professional verification for vehicle compatibility
  • Low-metallic formula may produce more dust than ceramic alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure peak performance, follow these guidelines:

  1. Compatibility: Before installation, match the WVA number 25915 to your vehicle's existing brake specifications.
  2. Preparation: Clean the brake caliper housing thoroughly to remove any road grime or old dust to ensure the new pads sit flush.
  3. Installation: Refer to the included mounting manual for proper torque settings when securing the calipers.
  4. Bedding-in: After installing, perform a "bedding-in" procedure by executing several gentle stops from moderate speeds to ensure the pad friction material properly mates with the surface of the rotors.
  5. Maintenance: Regularly inspect the pads during tire rotations to ensure the acoustic wear contacts are clear and the pads are wearing evenly.
