Your brakes are one part of your car you simply cannot afford to ignore. This guide brings together the key things Stoke-on-Trent drivers should know about brake repairs and replacement.
Recognising the warning signs
Squeaking, grinding, vibration, a soft pedal, pulling to one side, increased stopping distance and warning lights can all indicate a braking system issue worth investigating.
Pads, discs, and whether they need replacing together
Brake pads and discs don't automatically require replacement at the same time. Their condition and measurements need to be assessed individually before deciding on the appropriate repair.
Beyond pads and discs
The braking system contains considerably more than pads and discs, including fluid, callipers, pipes and hoses, and ABS components, all of which can develop their own faults.
Brakes and your MOT
The MOT inspection covers the condition and operation of braking components as well as overall braking performance and efficiency, and worn or faulty brakes are a common cause of MOT failure.
