Caliper render for this kit:

Few light commercials work their front brakes as hard as a loaded Caddy. The van carries its mass high and well forward, and every job it is built for, a camper conversion full of kit, a braked trailer on the towball, a Maxi cabin of passengers, shifts still more of that weight onto the front axle under braking. The XYZ Racing front big brake kit for the Volkswagen Caddy (including 4 Motion) is aimed squarely at that problem: bigger thermal capacity where the standard van runs out of it.
On the 4 Motion versions there is extra driveline mass over the nose again, and the Haldex hardware does nothing to help you stop. This front kit gives the Caddy the disc and caliper a working van actually needs when it is asked to haul down from motorway speed repeatedly, fully laden.
What this big brake kit does for your 2016-2026 Volkswagen Caddy
The first thing you notice is a firmer, more progressive pedal that does not go long and soft after a run of hard stops with weight on board. The larger two-piece floating disc and uprated caliper add thermal headroom, so braking from a loaded tow or a fast B-road descent stays consistent rather than fading into a mushy pedal. Three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, let you match the kit to how the van is used, from daily delivery duty with quiet, low-dust manners to spirited fast-road work and harder, sustained braking. The floating disc sheds heat between applications, so the van recovers between stops instead of soaking it all up.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
This is a front-axle upgrade built around a larger two-piece floating disc that sheds heat faster and carries less rotating weight than a solid equivalent of the same diameter. The disc pairs with a fixed caliper, a hollow body as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing version rated to 1000C, a two-year warranty and no dust cover for the hardest-worked vans. A choice of three friction compounds, Street for ordinary road use, Sport for harder fast-road and light-load towing duty, and Racing for the most aggressive bite and fade resistance, means you specify the kit to the Caddy’s real workload instead of accepting a one-size pad. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and a two-tone anodized or titanium centre bell can be added at checkout. The emphasis throughout is repeatable stopping power on a heavy, front-biased platform, the area where a stock Caddy front brake is most exposed.
Fitment for the Volkswagen Caddy (2016-2026)
This is a front-position kit for the Volkswagen Caddy across the 2016 to 2026 range, supplied as a pair of front corners, covering both front-wheel-drive and 4 Motion all-wheel-drive variants. Confirm your exact build year when you order so the disc and caliper match your van’s hub and carrier.

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.
