Caliper render for this kit:

Few road cars ask as much of their front axle as the V10 TDI Touareg. This is a 2.5-tonne SUV with a twin-turbo diesel V10 generating colossal low-end torque, and all of that mass piles onto the nose every time you brake from motorway speed. The factory front setup copes, but heat is the enemy: load the car with passengers, a roof box, or a trailer on the towball and the standard discs fade long before the engine runs out of pull. The XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit is built to absorb that energy and keep doing it.
This is a front-axle kit for the 2002-2007 Volkswagen Touareg 5.0 TDI V10, where the bulk of braking effort lives on a heavy 4WD platform. Supplied as a matched pair of left and right calipers and two-piece floating discs, it pairs lightweight hollow-vane rotors with a high-clamp caliper and a choice of pad compound, so you can match the setup to how you actually use the car.
What this brake kit does for your 2002-2007 Volkswagen Touareg 5.0 TDI V10
The first thing you feel is a firmer, more confident pedal under hard application, which matters on a vehicle this heavy where pedal travel and fade margin define your safety net on a long descent or a loaded tow run. The two-piece floating disc with hollow-vane cooling sheds rotational and unsprung mass on the front axle and moves heat away faster, taking strain off the steering and helping the nose settle more quickly under braking. Pad compound is yours to specify: Street suits everyday road and towing duty with quiet, low-dust manners, Sport bites harder and recovers faster from repeated stops, and Racing is there if you want serious heat tolerance for sustained heavy use. Larger thermal capacity at the front means consistent stopping power on a car that genuinely punishes undersized brakes.
About the Hollow front brake kit
The Hollow kit pairs a hollow-bodied caliper, lighter as standard at each unsprung corner, with a two-piece floating disc whose construction removes material to cut weight without giving up the thermal mass a heavy car needs. Lower rotating mass at each front corner reduces gyroscopic resistance and unsprung weight, which sharpens turn-in and eases the load on suspension and steering components. The kit ships as a matched front package: discs, calipers and pads engineered to work together rather than a mismatched parts-bin upgrade. Pad compound is selectable across Street, Sport and Racing options, so the same hardware covers a daily Touareg, a regular tow vehicle, or a hard-driven heavy SUV. Calipers can be finished in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a Custom Color in any Pantone, premium polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver, and candy Teal, Blue, Red and Orange offered as upgrades, plus a Hollow Racing caliper rated to 1000C with a two-year warranty for the hardest duty.
Fitment for the Volkswagen Touareg 5.0 TDI V10 (2002-2007)
This kit is specified for the front axle of the Volkswagen Touareg 5.0 TDI V10 across the 2002 to 2007 model years. It is a front-only big brake kit, so confirm your exact model year falls within that span before ordering. Caliper finish and pad compound are selected when you order, discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and centre bells can be upgraded to two-tone in five anodized colours or titanium at checkout.

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.
