How to Check the Wear Degree of Corolla Brake Pads?
1 Answers
Methods to check the wear degree of Corolla brake pads are as follows: 1. Check the thickness of the brake pads. The thickness of new front and rear brake pads is 10 millimeters, and the wear limit of the brake pads is 1 millimeter. When the remaining thickness is 1 millimeter, they need to be replaced. 2. When you feel very strenuous when stepping on the brake, it must be replaced. Methods to prevent excessive wear of brake pads are as follows: 1. During steep descents, reduce the speed in advance and use the appropriate gear. Using engine braking in conjunction with the operation of the braking system can effectively reduce the burden on the braking system and avoid overheating. 2. Do not turn off the engine during downhill driving. Most cars are equipped with a brake vacuum booster pump. Once the engine is turned off, the brake booster pump not only fails to assist but also creates great resistance to the brake master cylinder, significantly increasing the braking distance. 3. When driving an automatic transmission car in the city, always release the throttle in time, regardless of speed.
