These position-specific cover plates fit behind the front brake discs, providing a protective barrier between the brake assembly and road debris thrown upwards by the rotating wheels.
The available versions are:
982615311 – Front Left-Hand (LH) Brake Disc Cover Plate
982615312 – Front Right-Hand (RH) Brake Disc Cover Plate
The Porsche 718 front braking system uses ventilated brake discs, brake calipers and friction pads to provide controlled braking performance.
During normal driving, the brakes are exposed to water, mud, stones, road salt and other contaminants.
The brake disc cover plate helps reduce direct exposure of the inner disc surface and surrounding brake components to this contamination.
Positioned behind the brake disc, the cover plate follows the original arrangement of the front brake assembly while maintaining the necessary clearance around rotating components.
Manufactured to Porsche's original equipment specifications, each cover plate is designed for its designated side and compatible braking configuration.
Correct fitment is essential because the cover plate must remain securely attached without contacting the rotating brake disc.
Although it has no moving parts, the cover plate is exposed to road moisture, corrosion, vibration, temperature changes and occasional impacts from road debris.
Over time, the panel may become corroded, bent, cracked or damaged around its mounting points.
A distorted cover plate may contact the brake disc, causing scraping or metallic rubbing noises, particularly when the wheel rotates.
Severely corroded or loose cover plates may also become partially detached from their mounting points.
Replacing a damaged cover plate with the correct Genuine Porsche component helps restore the original brake protection arrangement, maintain suitable clearance and prevent unwanted contact with the brake disc.
Ideal for Porsche 718 brake servicing, front brake disc replacement, accident repairs and general maintenance, these Genuine Porsche Front Brake Disc Cover Plates provide factory-specified replacements for compatible vehicles.
What This Product Does:
The front brake disc cover plate is a protective component mounted behind the front brake disc.
Its primary function is to help shield the inner area of the braking assembly from road contamination while maintaining the original configuration of the brake components.
The cover plate sits close to the brake disc but does not normally make contact with it.
Its main functions include:
- Protecting the inner brake disc area: Helps reduce direct exposure to stones, mud and other road debris.
- Reducing water spray: Limits some of the water thrown towards the inner brake assembly.
- Helping protect nearby components: Provides a barrier between road contamination and parts of the braking assembly.
- Reducing debris impact: Helps prevent loose road material from directly striking protected areas.
- Maintaining the original brake assembly: Preserves the factory-designed protective arrangement.
- Supporting correct component clearance: Fits behind the rotating brake disc without interference when correctly installed.
- Reducing exposure to road salt: Helps limit direct contamination of areas behind the brake disc.
- Maintaining factory brake protection: Replaces the original cover when damaged or missing.
- Supporting brake maintenance: Allows deteriorated protection panels to be renewed during brake servicing.
- Preserving original Porsche construction: Maintains the correct left- or right-hand brake assembly configuration.
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
Front brake disc cover plates are generally durable, but prolonged exposure to road conditions may lead to deterioration.
Common signs of wear or damage include:
- Metallic scraping noises: A bent cover plate may contact the rotating brake disc.
- Rattling from the front wheel: Loose mounting points may allow the cover to vibrate.
- Visible corrosion: Road moisture and salt may cause rust or surface deterioration.
- Severe metal deterioration: Advanced corrosion may weaken the cover plate.
- Bent or distorted panel: Contact with road debris or incorrect handling may deform the component.
- Cracked mounting points: Damage around the fixing holes may affect secure attachment.
- Loose cover plate: Failed fasteners or corroded mounting areas may allow movement.
- Partial detachment: A damaged cover plate may no longer remain correctly positioned.
- Missing cover plate: Previous repairs may have left the protective component absent.
- Visible rubbing marks: Contact between the cover plate and brake disc may produce polished or abraded areas.
- Scraping after brake repairs: Incorrect refitting or accidental bending may cause interference.
- Damaged panel edges: Impact damage may cause sharp or uneven sections.
- Broken or missing fasteners: Deteriorated mounting hardware may compromise attachment.
- Uneven positioning: The panel may no longer sit concentrically behind the brake disc.
- Damage following wheel or suspension work: The cover plate may be inadvertently bent during servicing.
Why Replacement Matters:
Replacing a damaged brake disc cover plate helps maintain the original protective arrangement of the Porsche 718 front braking system.
A corroded, distorted or loose cover plate may no longer provide the intended coverage of the inner brake assembly.
If the panel becomes bent, it may rub against the rotating disc, causing unwanted noise and potentially damaging the cover.
A severely damaged panel may also detach from its original mounting points.
Installing a Genuine Porsche replacement Front Brake Disc Cover Plate helps to:
- Restore brake assembly protection: Replace a damaged or missing protective cover.
- Reduce exposure to road debris: Help shield the inner brake disc area from loose stones and dirt.
- Maintain correct clearance: Restore the intended position behind the brake disc.
- Eliminate contact caused by a damaged cover: Address scraping where the plate itself is rubbing against the disc.
- Replace corroded components: Renew panels weakened by road moisture and salt.
- Restore secure mounting: Replace covers with damaged fixing points.
- Reduce unwanted rattling: Address movement caused by a defective plate.
- Support front brake maintenance: Renew deteriorated covers during disc and pad servicing.
- Maintain original Porsche construction: Preserve the factory brake protection arrangement.
- Support vehicle restoration: Replace missing or damaged original components.
- Provide correct side-specific fitment: Use the appropriate left- or right-hand component.
- Maintain Genuine Porsche quality: Use original equipment replacement parts.
Replacement is recommended when the cover plate is heavily corroded, cracked, distorted, loose or unable to maintain adequate clearance from the brake disc.
If the brake disc, caliper or mounting hardware is also damaged, those components should be inspected and repaired separately.
