What are the precautions for replacing brake pads?
1 Answers
Precautions for replacing brake pads: 1. Installation of brake pads: When installing new brake pads, distinguish between the inner and outer sides. The friction surface of the brake pads should face the brake disc to ensure proper fit between the disc and pads. Install all accessories properly and tighten the caliper body. 2. Braking effect: In a car's braking system, brake pads are the most critical safety components. The quality of all braking effects is decisively influenced by the brake pads. 3. Proper break-in: After replacing brake pads, they need at least 500km of proper break-in to reach optimal working condition. Before this period, control your speed appropriately, anticipate road conditions when driving on highways to avoid sudden braking that could affect braking performance. During rainy or snowy weather, pay extra attention to maintaining sufficient braking distance and allow for earlier braking.
