Hey guys, I have 2016 CD and was planning on having the calipers powder coated and I read its a good idea to replace the seal etc when doing this. I haven't pulled the calipers from the car yet but does anyone know what model of brembo calipers are stock, so I can order the right parts. Or does anyone know of an all in one rebuild kit for the front and rear calipers?
I did my calipers a couple months ago. I ordered a seal kit from Rock Auto. The seal kit from Porsche only included the dust boots. If I had to do it again I would just re use the original seals, I only had 70,000 miles on the car. The replacement seals were a pain in the butt to work with. I ended up using some of the original seals.
I'm sure if you call the Parts Department at the local P dealer, they'd be more than happy to tell you the part numbers you'd need.
Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately my nearest dealer is an hour away and it is almost impossible to get a parts guy on the phone to answer a question. Even leaving a message does not get a return call usually so I it leaves me trying to find the info on the internet myself.
Any website where you can punch your year and mode linto will tell you. Porsche parts of Marin, or Gaudin are two great places.
Thanks, I will try those websites you mention, but what I have found so far is what appears to only be the dust caps for sale? The diagrams are not clear and as of right now I have sent an email to hopefully get some clarity on what the part numbers correspond to but who knows if I will get a reply.

Thanks for the heads up, Your calipers look great, this is what I'm trying to do and I will try to source OEM or brembo parts.
