Brakes and Rotors

Regularly inspecting your brakes is crucial to ensure your safety on the road. Listening for squeaking or grinding noises can be an early indicator that your brake pads may need attention. Additionally, if you notice any vibration or pulling to one side when braking, it might be time for a check-up.

Maintaining your brakes not only keeps you safe but also enhances your driving experience, providing smoother and more reliable stops. Remember, investing in quality brake components and timely maintenance can save you from costly repairs and ensure peace of mind while driving.

Expect to change your brake pads and rotors every 80,000 km to 120,000 km for optimal performance. Although it may be a larger initial investment, replacing both components simultaneously can extend their lifespan and enhance overall brake efficiency. Moreover, replacing the entire brake set is safer, minimizing the chances of uneven wear or warping that can compromise braking effectiveness.

Did you know? Brake pads are measured in millimeters, recommended replacement is at 3mm.
