Replacement of Brake Pads and Discs
Over time, brake pads and discs naturally wear out. This is due to the constant use of your vehicle’s braking system, as well as the environment in which you drive. This wear can lead to:
- a decrease in the performance of your braking system,
- an increase in braking distance,
- and premature tire wear.
Therefore, it is important to regularly check your braking system and replace worn parts as needed.

There are several signs that your brakes need to be replaced.
- If you hear a grinding or squeaking noise when you brake, this may indicate that your brake pads are worn. They should have a thickness of at least 2 mm, otherwise, they need to be changed.
- If you feel vibrations or juddering, this may be a sign that your discs are damaged.
- If the brake warning light appears.
Brake System Inspection

Before replacing the brakes, the technician will perform a visual inspection to assess the overall condition of your braking system. He will check the discs, calipers, brake pads, wheel cylinders, and brake drums to ensure they are in good working condition.
Replacement of Brake Pads

If the brake pads are worn, they must be replaced to ensure effective and safe braking.
Replacement of Brake Discs

If the brake discs are damaged, they must also be replaced.
Bleeding of the Brake System

The technician will bleed the brake system to ensure it is free of air and any other impurities.
Lubrication of Components

The brake calipers, slides, and pads will be lubricated to ensure smooth operation and to prevent squeaking and squealing during braking.
Checking and Adjustment of the Handbrake

The handbrake is checked and adjusted to ensure it functions correctly and does not accidentally disengage while driving.

It is important to note that the cost and scope of brake replacement can vary depending on the type of vehicle, its make and model, as well as the severity of brake wear. It is always advisable to request a detailed quote before having them replaced.
