8E0614177B Volkswagen JOUNCE BUM

This little part, it's really about controlling how quickly your brake pads release from the rotor once you let off the brake pedal. It doesn’t directly apply the brakes, but it influences how smoothly everything happens. It basically works with the spring clips to prevent the pads from chattering or grabbing. It kind of acts like a cushion, absorbing a little of that immediate retraction. Think of it as part of the brake caliper assembly. The caliper houses the pads and squeezes them against the rotor to stop the car. This buffer is a small component within that system, working alongside the clips and other hardware to manage the pad movement. It keeps everything moving freely and predictably. Honestly, without this, you’ll notice if it’s missing or worn out pretty quickly. You might get a rattling noise when you release the brake, or even a grabbing sensation. It’s not something that will cause a catastrophic failure right away, but it affects brake feel and smoothness. Over time, that extra vibration can wear down other brake components faster. We see a lot of folks find replacements on sites like Fixparts Online, and it's a relatively inexpensive part to replace when you're doing brake work. Replacing it during a brake job is always a good idea for a smoother, quieter ride. Suitable for all conditions: Bounce Buffer (MPN 8E0614177B) includes a 12-month warranty!
