Caliper render for this kit:
The MQB-A platform’s transverse engine placement and Quattro all-wheel-drive hardware push the F3 Q3’s kerb weight well above 1,500 kg, and that mass lands disproportionately on the front axle under hard braking. On a mountain pass or a committed trackday session, the standard setup begins to reveal its limits after sustained work; the XYZ Racing front brake kit replaces the front braking hardware with a setup that copes with repeat hard stops without building heat into a problem. It is a front-axle pair: left and right front calipers with matched two-piece floating discs.
Three pad compounds cover the range of use cases most Q3 owners actually run. Street is the quiet, low-dust default for daily duties and commuting, Sport adds more progressive bite and heat range for spirited road driving, and Racing is the track compound calibrated for circuit use where temperatures cycle through a wide range between straights.
What this brake kit does for your 2019-2026 Audi Q3 F3 QUATTRO
Front-axle bias in the MQB-A Q3 Quattro means the front brakes carry the majority of the work in every hard stop, and on a car this heavy the thermal load accumulates quickly. The hollow-vane disc design at the core of this kit accelerates heat dissipation between braking events, so pedal feel stays consistent through a run rather than getting progressively softer. The lighter two-piece discs cut rotating and unsprung mass at the front, and braided lines hold the pedal firm where rubber hoses would swell. The option to specify a Racing compound pad turns the same hardware into a trackday tool. Calipers are hollow-bodied as standard, with a Hollow Racing upgrade for serious track use, rated to 1000C, no dust cover, two-year warranty.
About the Front Brake Kit
The kit’s two-piece floating discs use a hollow-vane internal structure that creates additional air circulation through the disc body, directly relevant on a car that regularly carries significant weight and brakes from elevated speeds. The kit covers the front axle and is specified when you order: Street for road use, Sport for the owner who pushes on occasionally, Racing for those who want to run a dedicated track session without managing pedal feel. Discs come in drilled or slotted face at the same price, with optional two-tone centre bells in five anodized colours or titanium at checkout. Included caliper colours are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a Custom Color in any Pantone for £150 and premium polished-forged (Titanium, Polished Gold, Polished Silver) and candy finishes (Teal, Blue, Red, Orange) also available for owners matching a specific livery or wheel finish. The kit is designed for the front position of the F3-generation Q3 Quattro specifically.
Fitment for the Audi Q3 F3 QUATTRO (2019-2026)
This kit is specific to the F3-generation Audi Q3 Quattro, covering the full 2019-2026 production run. The F3 Q3 Quattro runs a distinct front axle arrangement versus the FWD derivative of the same generation; confirm your drivetrain variant before ordering. The fitment covers the Quattro line throughout the model run, including petrol and diesel four-cylinder variants on the MQB-A platform.

Choosing your spec
Every kit is built to order around the choices you make above. Here is what each option actually changes, so you can spec yours with confidence.
Brake pads — Street, Sport or Racing
Every kit ships with a full set of high-performance pads; the compound is your call.
Street is the right default for fast-road driving — a strong, progressive cold bite with low noise, low dust and long disc life. Sport raises the working temperature and adds bite and fade resistance for hard road use and the occasional track day, while still behaving on a cold morning. Racing is a track compound built for sustained abuse: huge fade resistance and bite once heat is in it, at the cost of more noise and dust when cold. Match the pad to how hard you actually use the brakes — there is no benefit to a race pad that never gets up to temperature.
Caliper grade — Hollow vs Hollow Racing
Hollow is the standard caliper on every kit: a hollow-body forged caliper, lighter than a solid one, fitted with a dust cover and backed by a 5-year oil-leak warranty. For most fast-road and spirited track use it is all the caliper you need.
Hollow Racing is the track-grade upgrade. It runs the same hollow body but without a dust cover (so there is nothing to melt at sustained high temperature), uses a twin-metal piston that isolates heat travelling from the disc to the oil seal, and is rated to 1000°C. Available 286–380mm (front). Warranty is 2 years on oil leaks and 10 years on appearance. Built for professional racing and repeated track days.
Caliper colour & finish
Painted colours (Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, Anodized Black) are included at no cost. Want an exact match to your car? Custom Color (+£150) paints the calipers to any Pantone code you supply (15–20 day lead time).
Polished Forged finishes are the flagship: a forged caliper given a mirror-polished surface treatment that shifts colour with the viewing angle. Beyond the looks, the polished surface dissipates heat better, resists rust and stands up to the weather. Choose Titanium (neochrome, +£350), Polished Gold (+£300) or Polished Silver (+£250). They look their best paired with a titanium centre bell. Care: clean only with a dilute neutral cleaner or water.
Candy colours (+£200) use a deep candy-paint and polishing process for a mirror-reflection, boutique finish — pick Teal, Blue, Red or Orange (shown below right).
Centre bells
The centre bell is the CNC-machined aluminium hat that joins the disc to the hub. The standard anodized centre bell is included. The Two-tone bell (+£200) adds an anodized accent ring — choose Red, Yellow, Orange, Purple or Silver right here at checkout. The Titanium centre bell (+£500) is a forged titanium bell (bolts not included) that finishes off the polished-forged look.
