FERRARI ROMA F169 Brake Caliper Front Set

In 2026, the Front Brake Caliper Set for the Ferrari Roma (F169) consists of two high-performance Brembo 6-piston monobloc aluminum calipers. These are designed to work exclusively with the Roma’s standard Carbon Ceramic (CCM) braking system.

1. Technical Identification

• Manufacturer: Brembo (for Ferrari).

• Type: 6-Piston fixed monobloc.

• Disc Compatibility: Designed for $390 \times 34 \text{ mm}$ Carbon Ceramic Discs.

• Compatibility: Ferrari Roma (F169) and Roma Spider.

  • Note: While the architecture is shared with the Portofino M, the mounting offsets and internal piston diameters are specific to the Roma’s suspension geometry and weight distribution.

2. 2026 Market Pricing (Estimated USD)

Pricing for a set (Left and Right) varies significantly based on whether you are buying new from a dealer or sourcing used components.

3. Color Suffix Codes

When ordering part numbers (frequently starting with 893XXX), the color is denoted by a specific suffix. Common 2026 options include:

• Nero (Black): Standard “Stealth” look.

• Rosso Corsa (Red): The classic Ferrari choice.

• Giallo Modena (Yellow): Highly popular with the Roma’s silver/grey paints.

• Alluminio (Silver): Standard on many “Elegant” spec Romas.

• Oro (Gold): Often seen on custom “Tailor Made” Romas.

4. 2026 Maintenance & Service

• The “Fade” Factor: By 2026, track-driven Romas may show “pinking” (discoloration of the red paint due to extreme heat). This is purely aesthetic but usually requires a professional strip and recoat to fix.

• Seals & Boots: If you are buying a used set, check the silicone dust boots. At 5–6 years old, these can begin to perish if the car was stored in a dry, hot climate, leading to piston seizure.

• Pads: Always use Genuine Ferrari/Brembo pads (specifically for CCM) to avoid “squealing” and to ensure the longevity of the expensive carbon rotors.

5. Installation Note

The Ferrari Roma uses a sophisticated Brake-by-Wire system.

• Bleeding: You cannot “pump the pedal” to bleed these brakes. In 2026, you must use the Ferrari DEIS or a compatible high-end diagnostic tool to cycle the ABS valves and the electronic master cylinder during the bleeding process.

• Torque: Caliper mounting bolts are “stretch bolts” and should technically be replaced whenever the caliper is removed ($~20 \text{ each}$).
