Analysis of how to maintain the brake pads!

Brake pads are an important brake system, maintenance work is essential, then how to maintain the car brake pads?

When the vehicle has driven 40,000 kilometers or more than 2 years, the brake pads are more worn, to carefully check regularly to see whether the thickness of the brake pads has been reduced to a smaller limit value, if it has been near the limit value, it is necessary to replace the brake pads. Under normal driving conditions, check the brake pads once every 5000 kilometers, not only to check the remaining thickness, but also to check the state of shoe wear, whether the degree of wear on both sides is the same, whether the return is free.

First, avoid sudden braking

The damage to the brake pads is very large, so you should pay attention to slow braking when you usually drive, or use the way to brake, so that the wear of the brake pads is relatively small.

Second, pay attention to the sound of brake pads

If you hear the sound of grinding iron after normal braking, it means that the brake pads have been worn to the brake disc, and the brake pads must be replaced immediately, and the damage of the brake disc must be carefully checked.

Third, reduce the frequency of braking

In normal driving, to develop a good habit of reducing braking, that is, you can let the engine brake to reduce the speed, and then use the brake to further slow down or stop. You can slow down by shifting more gear while driving.

Fourth, regularly to the wheel positioning

When the vehicle has problems such as deviation, it is necessary to do four-wheel positioning of the vehicle in time to avoid damage to the vehicle tires, and it will lead to excessive wear of the brake pads on one side of the vehicle.

Five, replace the brake pad should pay attention to running-in

When the vehicle is replaced with a new brake pad, it is necessary to step on a few more brakes to eliminate the gap between the shoe and the brake disc, so as to avoid an accident. In addition, it is necessary to run in 200 kilometers to achieve the best braking effect, and the newly changed brake pads must be driven carefully.
