BRAKE SYSTEMSBrake problems often start with subtle changes in sound, pedal feel or stopping distance. Ignoring them can turn a manageable repair into a serious safety risk.
Worn brake pads can expose metal and damage your rotors.
A change in pedal pressure may indicate a fluid or hydraulic issue.
Shaking through the steering wheel can point to uneven brake wear.
Understand what should be inspected, when your braking system needs attention and which warning signs you can safely identify yourself.
| Service item | What we inspect | When to check | Safe check before booking |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01Brake pads | Measure remaining pad material and identify uneven wear. | Every 6–12 months or whenever braking noises appear. | Listen for persistent squealing or grinding when slowing down. |
| 02Brake rotors | Check rotor thickness, surface condition and signs of warping. | Whenever brake pads are inspected or replaced. | Notice whether the steering wheel or brake pedal vibrates during braking. |
| 03Brake fluid | Check fluid condition, contamination and the recommended replacement interval. | According to the vehicle manufacturer’s servicing schedule. | With the vehicle parked, look for dashboard brake warnings or visible fluid beneath the car. |
| 04Brake lines & hoses | Inspect accessible lines and hoses for leaks, cracking or damage. | During routine servicing or whenever fluid loss is suspected. | Check the ground where you normally park for fresh, unexplained fluid spots. |
| 05Brake pedal response | Assess pedal firmness, travel and overall braking response. | Immediately if the pedal feels soft, sinks or changes suddenly. | While parked, notice whether the pedal feels unusually soft or travels further than normal. |
| 06ABS & warning lights | Diagnose ABS faults, sensor issues and brake warning indicators. | As soon as a warning light appears. | Photograph the dashboard warning and note when it first appeared. |
Never drive if the brake pedal feels unusually soft, braking distance increases suddenly or a brake warning light remains illuminated.
