How often should the brake pads of Hyundai ix35 be replaced?
1 Answers
There is no fixed replacement cycle for the brake pads of Hyundai ix35. It is recommended to regularly check and replace them after driving 30,000 to 60,000 kilometers. Here are some relevant details: The thickness of a brand-new set of brake pads is about 1.5cm. When the visible thickness of the brake pads is less than 0.5cm, it's time to prepare for replacement. Daily driving conditions and driving habits vary for each vehicle, which can affect the lifespan of the brake pads. Here are methods to determine when the brake pads of Hyundai ix35 need replacement: 1. Check the thickness: Each brake pad has a raised indicator on both sides, with a thickness of about 2-3mm, which is the minimum replacement limit for the brake disc. If the brake pad thickness is level with this indicator, it must be replaced. 2. Listen for sounds: If a metallic scraping sound is heard when lightly applying the brakes, the brake pads must be replaced immediately. This indicates that the limit indicators on both sides of the brake pads are directly rubbing against the brake disc, showing that the brake pads have exceeded their limit.
