In summer, the temperature is high, and the car wears out quickly. Self-checking the vehicle has become an essential skill for car owners, especially such an important brake pad! Today, the Alpine Brake Pad Set Manufacturer set presented the "Brake Pad Self-Test Manual"! Where should we start? Look at the speed!

Under normal circumstances, the thickness of the new brake pads is about 1.5cm. Under our continuous "destruction", the thickness will gradually become thinner. Experts suggest that when visually observing the thickness of the brake pads is only about 1/3 of the original thickness (about 0.5cm), the owner should increase the frequency of self-tests, ready to replace at any time.

There is a protruding logo on each side of each brake pad. Generally, the thickness of this logo is about two or three millimetres. Of course, this is also the limit of the thinnest replacement of the brake disc. At this time, the owner must be ready to observe at any time. It is difficult to accurately observe the naked eye without removing the tire. At present, many models will prompt the position of the instrument hand brake light when the brake pad is too thin.

When the brake is lightly tapped, the sound of "iron rubbing iron" is heard (it may also be the effect of the brake pads running in at the beginning of the installation), and the brake pads must be replaced immediately. Because the limit marks on both sides of the brake pads have directly rubbed the brake discs at this time, which proves that the brake pads have exceeded the service limit. At this time, it may not be as simple as changing the brake pads. The brake discs must also be checked at the same time. Because the sound of "iron rubbing iron" appears, the brake discs have been worn out in most cases. If the brake pads cannot be eliminated after replacing the brake pads, The brake discs must also be replaced!

Every day you interact with the brakes is your feet, and you should pay more attention to the "feel" when driving. When stepping on the brakes feels strenuous, it probably means that the brake pads have basically lost their friction. There is no choice but to replace the brake pads immediately.
