EBC S11 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit Audi Q5 & A4 (2012-2021)
Transform your Audi’s braking capabilities with the EBC S11 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit, the definitive choice for 2012-2021 Audi Q5 2.0 Turbo (Brembo) and 2012-2016 Audi A4 2.0 Turbo Premium drivers seeking unmatched stopping power and reliability. This kit pairs EBC’s high-performance Greenstuff front brake pads (DP22168) with premium RK-series front rotors (RK1838), delivering exceptional grip, smooth operation, and extended durability. Outperforming competing brake kits, the S11KF1775 is engineered for spirited street driving, offering Audi enthusiasts precision, confidence, and value in every stop.
Why EBC?
- Enhanced Stopping Power: Greenstuff pads reduce stopping distances by up to 15% compared to OEM pads, with a 0.45μ friction coefficient for immediate, confident braking, as proven in independent dynamometer testing.
- Premium RK Rotors: RK1838 rotors feature a Geomet anti-corrosion coating, precision CNC machining, and runout testing to ensure vibration-free braking and long-term reliability.
- Cost-Effective Performance: Saves 10% compared to buying pads and rotors separately, providing premium quality at a better value than OEM or other aftermarket kits.
- Low Dust & Quiet Braking: Greenstuff pads generate less dust than semi-metallic pads, with fully shimmed, chamfered, and slotted designs plus a Brake-In™ coating for near-silent operation and rapid pad bedding.
- Eco-Friendly & Road-Legal: Copper-free pads and rotors comply with global environmental standards, with ECE R90 certification for legal road use in Europe.
- Rotor-Friendly Durability: Greenstuff’s organic compound minimizes disc wear, while RK rotors resist rust, ensuring a longer lifespan than standard rotors.
- Ideal for Street Enthusiasts: Optimized for Audi Q5 and A4 drivers seeking sporty performance for daily commutes and occasional canyon runs, without the noise or dust of race pads.
Compared to alternatives like EBC’s S10KF1440 (Greenstuff + GD rotors) or Brembo OE kits, the S11KF1775 stands out. The S10KF1440’s GD slotted rotors are designed for track use, increasing noise and wear for street applications, while Brembo’s ceramic kits prioritize low dust but offer less initial bite (0.4μ friction) and higher costs. The S11KF1775’s Greenstuff pads provide a shorter bed-in (100-200 miles) and superior modulation for the Q5’s Brembo calipers and A4’s 2.0T dynamics, making it the best street-performance upgrade.

Important Fitment Notes:
- For Q5 models, confirm Brembo 4-piston front calipers (not ATE or standard calipers). Verify rotor size (345mm) using your VIN or existing parts.
- For A4 models, ensure 345mm front rotors; some may use 320mm rotors, requiring SKU S10KF1440.
- Do not install upgrade pads on the rear unless the same upgrade is fitted to the front to avoid brake imbalance.
- Contact your supplier or EBC directly with your VIN or registration number for precise fitment verification.
Installation & Usage Tips
- Optimized for Street Use: Perfect for daily driving and spirited street performance. For track applications, consider EBC Yellowstuff kits (e.g., S5KF1676 with DP42168R).
- Bed-In Period: Perform 100-200 miles of gentle braking to seat pads properly. Avoid hard stops during this phase to prevent glazing or uneven wear.
- Rotor Preparation: Geomet coating requires no removal; the pad-swept area clears within 10-20 stops through normal braking.
- Professional Installation Recommended: Use clean caliper sliders, new hardware, and proper torque specs to ensure noise-free operation and optimal performance.
- Rotor Condition: Replace worn or grooved rotors to maximize performance and minimize bed-in time.
- Balanced Braking: For optimal results, pair with an EBC S11KR rear kit (e.g., DP22169+RK1839) if upgrading rear brakes to maintain brake balance.

Brake Kits - OE
OE brake kits restore factory stopping performance with direct-fit rotors and pads matched to original specifications. These kits are ideal for scheduled brake service or repairs where maintaining stock braking characteristics is the priority. Popular ProductsTop OE brake kit brands include Bosch QuietCast, Raybestos Element3, and Wagner ThermoQuiet. These kits pair OE-equivalent rotors with low-dust ceramic pads for quiet operation and minimal brake dust on wheels. What is included in an OE brake kit?Most OE brake kits include two front or two rear rotors and the corresponding brake pad set for that axle. Some kits also include installation hardware such as pad clips and caliper guide pins. How often should I replace OE brakes?Front brake pads typically last 30,000-70,000 miles depending on driving style and vehicle weight. Rotors generally need replacement when pad thickness reaches the minimum limit or if rotor thickness falls below the minimum spec stamped on the rotor hat. Expl...
