Pads, discs, drums, brake fluid and handbrakes. If your brakes squeal, shudder or feel soft, get them checked before your WOF is due.
Pads and discs wear down gradually, so most people do not notice until there is metal on metal — which turns a pad job into a disc job.
We measure how much pad and disc you have left and tell you exactly where you stand. If they are fine, we say so and charge you nothing for the look.
We also change brake fluid, which absorbs water over time and makes the pedal feel soft. Most manufacturers want it changed every two years.
If any of these sound familiar, bring the vehicle in and we will take a look.
Squealing is the wear indicator. Grinding means the pad is gone and the disc is being damaged.
A pulsing pedal or shaking steering wheel under braking usually means warped discs.
A spongy pedal or one that sinks means air or water in the fluid, or a leak. Do not leave it.
