Brake pad replacement is a simple procedure. When we replace your brake pads, we take out your old brake pads and replace them with OEM Volkswagen brake pads. Depending on your needs, we might only replace your front or rear brake pads. Front and rear brake pads can wear out at different times. You may need front brake pad replacement before you need rear brake pad replacement. Front brake pads tend to wear out more quickly because they experience more of the stress when you are braking.
The brake pads are essential for stopping your vehicle. Most vehicle braking systems work through friction between brake pads and rotors. Volkswagen brake pad replacement is important because brake pads wear out gradually due to this friction. It’s important to get your brake pads replaced because worn down brake pads won’t create the needed amount of friction. Not having your brake pads replaced when you need to is bad for your brake calipers and brake rotors.
The best way to tell if you need new brake pads is to pay attention to your vehicle’s brake response. If your brakes start working differently than they used to, you probably need brake pad replacement or another brake system service. Signs your brake pads need replacing include scraping noises while braking and a spongy feeling when you press your brake pedal. Your brake pads should last between 25,000 and 50,000 miles. Brake pad lifespan depends on the position of the pads, whether they’re on the front or rear wheels, and your driving habits. Avoid traveling at excessively high speeds and applying your brakes unnecessarily to prolong brake pad lifespan.
