Brake discs (rotors) — rear

The rear disc. Smaller than the front and usually longer-lived, but on cars with an electric parking brake it also carries the handbrake function.

Also called rear rotors.

How you know it is this

  • A rear-end judder under light braking
  • A rusty, pitted surface after a car has stood — rear discs corrode first
  • The parking brake slipping on a slope

Worth knowing before you buy

  • Replaced in pairs, same as the front.
  • On many models the rear disc has a drum machined into the centre for the parking brake shoes. That type is not interchangeable with a plain rear disc.
  • Cars with an electric parking brake need the calipers wound back with a diagnostic tool, not by hand. Worth knowing before the car is on a ramp.

What we need to quote it. Whether the car has a foot-operated or an electric parking brake. The chassis number settles the generation, the body and usually the engine in seventeen characters — it is on your mulkiya. A photograph of the old part helps where there is more than one version.
