We check the entire braking system and only replace what is needed. You get a clear price beforehand.
What we check and do
- Brake pads and brake discs – thickness, wear and warping
- Brake fluid – condition and replacement interval
- Brake callipers and lines – sticking, leaks and rust
- Handbrake – operation, including electric parking brakes
- Warnings – reading ABS and brake system warnings
Why diagnose first?
A fault code or a symptom does not always tell you where the problem really is. That is why we carry out targeted checks first, before replacing anything. We cannot make a definitive diagnosis remotely or over the phone; we can tell you what we are going to check and how we will go about it.
Sound familiar?
- Squeaking or grinding brakes
- Vibration when braking
- Brake warning light on
- Car pulls when braking
- Soft brake pedal
Frequently asked questions
How do I know if my brake pads are worn?
Typical signs are a squeaking or grinding noise, a longer braking distance or a warning on the dashboard. If in doubt, we will check.
Do brake discs always have to be replaced together with the pads?
Not always. It depends on the thickness and condition of the discs. We measure them and tell you what is needed.
How often should brake fluid be replaced?
Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time. Most manufacturers specify a replacement every one to two years; we follow your car's schedule.
