What Causes BMW Brake Failure?
1 Answers
The reasons for BMW brake failure are as follows: 1. Abnormal wear of brake discs and pads: For example, when brake discs and pads are worn to their limits, they should be inspected during every maintenance service. 2. Deterioration of brake fluid: Brake fluid has strong water absorption properties. If not replaced for a long time, it can easily produce air bubbles, affecting braking performance. Brake fluid should be replaced regularly. 3. Brake system oil leakage: If brake fluid leaks severely, braking will be impossible. It is crucial to pay attention to brake system warnings. After the brake system warning light comes on, promptly stop to check the brake fluid level and inspect components such as brake lines and the master/slave cylinders. 4. Air in the brake system: The presence of air in the brake system will significantly increase braking distance. This is a relatively common issue and requires bleeding the brake system at a service station. 5. Damage to components such as the brake master cylinder or slave cylinders: Replace the relevant parts. 6. Obstruction under the brake pedal: For example, a plastic bottle or an ill-fitting floor mat may block the pedal. Adjust promptly.
