Removing and installing the front disc brake pads - GT2 / Turbo with PCCB: Notes

WARNING: Danger of accident if brake pads with the wrong brake pad quality are installed!
  • Use only the type-specific brake pads in the Porsche Spare Parts Catalogue!
NOTE:
  • The GT2 is equipped with PCCB (Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake) as standard!
  • In contrast to this, at the start of production, steel brake discs and brake pads are used at first!
  • The pad backing plates (rear side of the brake pads) must not be greased!
  • 2 vibration dampers -arrows- are fitted on each of the brake-pad supports!

  • Replace vibration dampers each time the pads are changed!
  • The damper plates have an adhesive protective film! The protective film must be pulled off before installation!
  • When fitting the vibration dampers on the small pistons, the cut-out on the vibration damper -arrow-  is to be positioned at the brake pads guide pins as otherwise the vibration damper will be deformed!
