How to Eliminate Brake Shoe Wear?
1 Answers
When driving normally, pay attention to braking slowly or using intermittent braking, which causes less wear on the brake pads. While driving, develop a good habit of reducing braking. You can use the engine braking to slow down the vehicle first, then use the brakes to further decelerate or stop. Regularly and carefully inspect the brake pads to see if their thickness has reduced to the minimum limit. If it is close to the limit, the brake pads should be replaced. If the vehicle has issues like pulling to one side, promptly perform a four-wheel alignment to prevent damage to the tires and avoid excessive wear on the brake pads on one side of the vehicle. If you hear a metal grinding sound after normal braking while driving, it indicates that the brake pads have worn down to the brake discs, and the brake pads must be replaced immediately.
