Passat B5 Rear Brake Disc (245mm Solid)

This rear brake disc is a direct replacement for Volkswagen Passat (3B and 3BG) models fitted with TRW rear braking systems and PR codes 1KD or 1KF. With a 245mm outer diameter and solid construction, it is designed to restore stable, predictable braking performance on the rear axle.


What this brake disc does

Rear brake discs support balanced braking and vehicle stability. When the brake pedal is applied, the rear calipers clamp the brake pads onto the disc surface, generating friction that slows the rear wheels in a controlled manner. This helps maintain correct brake bias and ensures proper operation of ABS and traction control systems.

The solid disc design is ideal for rear axle use, where braking loads are lower than at the front. It offers consistent everyday braking performance, long service life, and reliable handbrake operation when paired with the correct pads and calipers.


Construction & specifications

  • Outer diameter: 245mm

  • Disc thickness: 10mm

  • Brake disc type: Solid

  • Surface finish: Coated (anti-corrosion protection)

  • Stud pattern: 5-hole

  • Fitting position: Rear axle

  • Manufacturer restriction: TRW

The protective coating helps prevent corrosion on the non-friction areas of the disc, extending service life and maintaining a cleaner appearance—particularly beneficial in wet or winter driving conditions.


Fitment & compatibility

Suitable for the following applications fitted with TRW rear brakes:

  • VW Passat (3B) – 1.6, 1.8, 2.0 petrol and 1.9D, 2.3, 2.8, 2.5D

    • Production dates: 08/1996 – 11/2000

  • VW Passat (3BG) – 1.6, 1.8, 2.0 petrol and 1.9D, 2.0D, 2.3, 2.8, 2.5D

    • Production dates: 10/2000 – 11/2005

    • PR codes: 1KD or 1KF

Always confirm PR code, rear disc diameter (245mm), and TRW brake system before ordering, as alternative rear brake sizes were also used on some models.


Recommended additional parts

For best braking performance and reliability, we recommend fitting:

  • Rear brake pads compatible with TRW calipers

  • Brake disc retaining screws

  • Brake pad fitting kit / anti-rattle clips (where applicable)

Rear brake discs should always be replaced in axle pairs to ensure even braking and correct handbrake operation.
