What brand are the brake pads for the Lynk & Co 03?
2 Answers
The brand of the brake pads for the Lynk & Co 03 is Ferodo. Brake pads are generally composed of a steel plate, a bonded heat insulation layer, and a friction block. The heat insulation layer is made of non-heat-conductive materials to provide thermal insulation. Considerations when purchasing brake pads: 1. Check the brand: Choose genuine products from well-known brands. 2. Check the friction coefficient: The friction coefficient determines the basic braking torque of the brake pads. If it is too high, it may cause wheel lock-up, loss of directional control, and overheating during braking. If it is too low, the braking distance may be too long. 3. Check safety: Brake pads generate instantaneous high temperatures during braking, especially during high-speed driving or emergency braking. At high temperatures, the friction coefficient of the pads may decrease. 4. Check comfort: This includes braking feel, noise, dust, smoke, and odor, which are direct reflections of friction performance. 5. Check lifespan: Typically, brake pads can ensure a service life of 50,000 kilometers.
I've been driving for several years, especially the Lynk & Co 03. Its original brake pads usually come with brands like Bosch or Brembo, depending on the year and configuration, but most car owners report these brands being common. Brake pads are crucial—once severely worn, they can increase braking distance and compromise safety. I generally recommend checking them every 20,000 to 30,000 kilometers. If you hear unusual noises or feel the brakes are soft, replace them immediately. Don’t skimp on unknown brands; opt for genuine or certified parts from reputable shops—safety comes first. The Lynk & Co maintenance manual lists recommended brands, so check the manual or ask at a 4S store for the most reliable info. Regular maintenance should include cleaning brake system dust to prevent premature wear.
