Brake Pads Packages
By OE Match
- Porsche 996 C4S 3.6L 09/01-2005
- Porsche 996 TURBO 2000-05
OE Match front brake pad wear sensor and shim kit for Porsche 996 Turbo / 996 C4S. Supplied together for servicing the sensors and damping plates on one front axle.
Fits

Porsche 996 Turbo (FRONT)
Porsche 996 C4S (FRONT)
Sold as set for one complete axle.
Check fitment for your specific vehicle (model, year, engine) before ordering.
What This Product Does
This package combines brake pad warning contacts with damping shims for a front brake service. It covers these supporting components rather than providing replacement friction pads or brake discs.
Functions
- Renews the front brake pad wear warning contacts.
- Replaces the associated pad damping plates.
- Groups sensors and shims for one complete front axle.
Technical Details
- Position: Front.

Symptoms of Fault
A brake wear warning or squealing warrants inspection of the pads and related components. Neither symptom alone confirms that the sensors or shims require replacement.
Why Replacement Matters
Renewing worn supporting parts during brake servicing helps avoid leaving damaged components in place. Match the vehicle application and inspect the existing installation before selecting replacements.
FAQs
Does this cover both axles?
No. This set covers one complete front axle.
Are brake pads included?
The stated contents are wear sensors and shims, not brake pads.
What should be checked before fitting?
Compare the component references, vehicle details and relevant parts diagram with the planned work.

This kit is comprised of the following items:
- Porsche 996 C4S 3.6L 09/01-2005
- Porsche 996 TURBO 2000-05
OE Match rear brake wear sensor and shim kit for Porsche 996 Turbo and 996 C4S. The package brings together replacement sensor wires and damping plates for a complete rear-axle service.
Fits

Porsche 996 Turbo (REAR), 2000–05
Porsche 996 C4S (REAR), 3.6L 09/01–2005
Check fitment for your specific vehicle (model, year, engine) before ordering.
Sold as set for one complete axle.
What This Product Does
This kit groups the rear brake wear-warning contacts and pad damping plates for the listed vehicles. These are supporting brake-service components; the product is identified as a sensor and shim kit rather than a brake-pad or disc package.
Functions
- Provides replacement rear brake wear-warning contacts.
- Supplies damping plates used with the rear brake pads.
- Groups related components for work across one rear axle.
Technical Details
- Installation position: Rear.

Symptoms of Fault
- A brake wear warning that requires investigation.
- Visible damage to sensor wiring or its connections.
- Squealing or other brake noise requiring inspection of pads, damping plates and associated components.
Why Replacement Matters
A brake service should account for supporting components as well as pad and disc condition. Checking the sensors and shims while the brakes are dismantled helps identify damaged or unsuitable parts before reassembly. Warning lights and noise can have several causes, so diagnosis should establish which components require renewal.
FAQs
Does this cover both axles?
No. The supplied set covers one complete rear axle.
Can the component references confirm compatibility on their own?
Check them alongside the vehicle details and brake specification. Individual components also appear in other assemblies; that does not establish compatibility for this complete kit.
What should be checked before fitting?
Compare the planned work with the kit contents and the relevant parts diagram, including any application-specific quantities and additional hardware required.

OEMatch Brake Pads Packages — Stopping Power, Consistent Control
OEMatch Brake Pads Packages provide matched pad sets chosen for Porsche models, balancing everyday comfort with controlled stopping across urban and spirited driving. Packages cover standard road compounds, track-capable materials and period-correct options for classic cars, with parts selected to reflect model-specific mounting, friction characteristics and service needs.
Available Types- Standard road brake pads for quiet, consistent braking
- Performance and sports pads rated for higher temperatures and increased initial bite
- Ceramic and low-dust formulations for reduced residue
- Front and rear matched sets for balanced braking
- Classic and period-correct pads for vintage Porsche models
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are made by the same company that produced your Porsche’s original brake pads packages. OE (Original Equipment) refers to parts matching original specifications for the brake pads packages and may be supplied by alternative manufacturers. Aftermarket parts offer alternative options, sometimes with enhanced features or better value. OEMatch supplies non-OEM brake pads packages engineered as direct-fit alternatives to OEM parts, made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for Porsche models.
OEMatch provides a wide range of Porsche components, from gaskets to suspension hardware, engine parts and interior trim. The catalogue includes over 4,000 individual part numbers and more than 8,700 OE cross-references, with further products under development to support Porsche vehicles across generations.
Benefits Include- Consistent friction across a service life for predictable brake feel
- Reduced noise and manageable dust levels for everyday use
- Matched front and rear compounds to preserve balance and stability under braking
- Heat and repeated heavy use leading to glazing or material breakdown
- Contamination from oil, brake fluid or road debris affecting friction
- Incorrect bedding, excessive rotor wear or caliper issues causing uneven wear
Properly chosen pad packages help maintain safe and predictable stopping performance on Porsche models. Replacing worn pads in a timely manner reduces rotor damage, preserves brake balance and supports the effectiveness of ABS and stability systems where fitted.
Advantages- Direct-fit and model-referenced pads drawn from original specifications where applicable
- Options covering quiet road use, higher-temperature performance and classic applications
- Extensive part number coverage to aid correct selection for specific Porsche models
These items affect safety-critical systems. Installation should be carried out by a qualified technician following model-specific procedures and torque settings. Use calibrated tools and new fasteners where specified.
