Brembo KT00572 OE Rear Disc Brake Kit 2000-2006 Audi TT Quattro Ceramic Pads

The Brembo KT00572 is an OE-quality rear disc brake kit for 2000 to 2006 Audi TT Quattro models including Base, ALMS Edition, and Special Edition. The KT00572 combines Brembo's Prime Ceramic brake pads with Brembo's high-carbon cast iron rotors to deliver a complete rear brake replacement that meets or exceeds original equipment stopping performance. Brembo manufactures the rotors in the KT00572 from the same alloy materials used in original equipment production, ensuring dimensional accuracy, thermal properties, and surface finish are consistent with what came on the vehicle from the factory.

The Prime Ceramic pads included in the KT00572 are engineered to minimize noise and vibration while producing low dust output, which keeps wheel faces cleaner than conventional pad compounds. Brembo's high-carbon cast iron rotor formulation provides a higher damping coefficient that reduces vibration and noise during braking, improves fade resistance through better heat conduction, and shortens cooling times between brake applications. All hardware required for installation is included in the KT00572 kit for a straightforward bolt-on replacement of the rear brake assembly.

Installation Notes

The KT00572 is a direct bolt-on rear brake replacement for 2000 to 2006 Audi TT Quattro. The rear caliper on the TT Quattro uses a rotating piston design that requires a brake caliper wind-back tool for pad installation. Do not use a standard C-clamp to compress the rear pistons. Clean all rotor contact surfaces with brake cleaner before installation. Torque caliper carrier bolts to OE specification. Bed the new pads and rotors through a series of moderate stops from progressively higher speeds before any aggressive braking to ensure even pad transfer and maximum stopping performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicles does the Brembo KT00572 fit?
The KT00572 fits 2000 to 2006 Audi TT Quattro rear brakes, including Base, ALMS Edition (2002), and Special Edition (2006) trims.

What type of brake pads are included in the KT00572?
The KT00572 includes Brembo Prime Ceramic pads, engineered for low noise, reduced vibration, and minimal brake dust output while delivering controlled stopping power equivalent to or better than the original equipment pads.

Why does Brembo use high-carbon cast iron for its rotors?
High-carbon cast iron provides a higher damping coefficient than standard cast iron, which reduces the vibration and noise that can occur during brake application. It also conducts heat more efficiently, allowing the rotor to transfer thermal energy away from the braking surface faster, which shortens cooling times and improves fade resistance during repeated stops.

Does the KT00572 include rotors and pads?
Yes. The KT00572 is a complete rear disc brake kit that includes both Brembo high-carbon cast iron rear rotors and Brembo Prime Ceramic rear brake pads along with all required installation hardware.

Is the KT00572 a direct OE replacement?
Yes. The KT00572 is engineered to the same dimensional specifications as the original Audi TT Quattro rear brake components. No modifications are required for installation.

How does the KT00572 differ from the KT04221?
Both kits fit the same Audi TT Quattro rear brake application. The KT00572 (this kit) includes Prime Ceramic pads, which prioritize low dust and quiet operation. The KT04221 includes Prime Low-Met pads, which offer a different friction compound tuned with a focus on performance characteristics. The choice between the two depends on whether the priority is low dust and quiet daily driving or a performance-oriented pad compound.

What is the warranty on the Brembo KT00572?
The KT00572 is covered by Brembo's limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. As a brake component, the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act provides federal consumer protections that prevent vehicle manufacturers from voiding warranty coverage on unrelated components due to the use of quality aftermarket brake parts.

Do I need a special tool to install the KT00572?
Yes. The Audi TT Quattro uses a rear caliper with rotating pistons that require a brake caliper wind-back tool for proper installation. A standard piston compression tool or C-clamp will damage the rear caliper pistons. A wind-back tool is widely available at auto parts stores and is required for this and most European rear brake installations.
