How Often Should the Tiguan's Brake Pads Be Replaced?

[Hallie]

Tiguan brake pads are typically serviced every 20,000 kilometers, but if the brakes are used less frequently, maintenance can be extended to every 30,000 to 40,000 kilometers. The conditions for brake maintenance are as follows: 1. Based on the wear of the brake pads: If the brake pads wear down to one-third of their original thickness, it indicates that they should be replaced. 2. Brake fluid replacement: Brake fluid, like other lubricants, has a shelf life and needs to be replaced periodically. Information about car brakes is as follows: 1. Brakes: As the name suggests, they are mechanical braking devices that can slow down the vehicle, also known as decelerators. 2. Method: The car's brake pedal is located below the steering wheel. Pressing the brake pedal causes the brake linkage to be pressurized and transmitted to the brake pads on the brake drum, which then clamp the brake disc, slowing or stopping the vehicle.
