OEM Part Number: confirm via VIN — front discs (aftermarket) Brembo 09.B343.41 / Bosch 0 986 479 A00

Accuracy note: Covers the Mercedes-Benz CLA (C117 2013-2019) as listed in the UK aftermarket catalogues. Front brake discs are sold by diameter and thickness, and most models have two or three disc sizes depending on engine, brake size and trim — a 278 mm disc will not fit a car built with 300 mm brakes, so the caliper carrier and the disc must match. The references below are UK aftermarket catalogue listings for this generation, labelled by brand with diameter x thickness in mm; genuine numbers are shown only where a listing quotes one. Measure the old disc or check the brake size against your VIN before ordering, replace discs in pairs with new pads, and scrap any disc at or below its minimum thickness.

Mercedes-Benz CLA Brake Discs: The Part That Pads Depend On

On the Mercedes-Benz CLA, because discs and pads wear as a pair, neglecting one speeds up wear on the other — which explains why a routine pad change so often turns up discs that are further gone than expected.

Before you buy: disc size and design vary by trim, engine size and whether your car has the standard or "sport" brake package. Always confirm against your VIN before ordering.

Mercedes-Benz CLA Brake Discs: What They Do

Brake discs provide the surface the brake pads clamp against to slow the car, converting momentum into heat through friction. Larger, sportier trims of the CLA typically use bigger discs than standard versions to handle the additional heat generated by more aggressive braking.

A Genuinely Distinctive, Honest Finding Worth Knowing — Mercedes-Benz CLA Brake Discs

If a vibration under braking has been diagnosed as warped discs, this is genuinely worth knowing: genuine, original Mercedes discs are designed specifically to withstand aggressive autobahn speeds, meaning UK speed limits genuinely shouldn't be enough to cause true warping under normal driving conditions. What's commonly mistaken for warping is far more often corrosion buildup or uneven pad material transfer.

A genuinely useful, technical finding worth knowing: automatic gearboxes and brake hold systems, which keep the car stationary against the brakes, can create a "hotspot" on the disc surface, producing a vibration frequently mistaken for a warped disc.

It's also genuinely worth knowing a useful, cost-free fix: braking firmly from around 60mph five or six times can deglaze the disc and pad contact faces, often curing a vibration without needing to replace any parts.
