What Causes Soft Brakes in Paladin?
1 Answers
Reasons for soft brakes in Paladin: Brake fluid contamination: If there is no brake fluid as the medium, or if the brake fluid's working performance is poor, it will result in insufficient friction between the brake pads and brake discs, leading to soft and ineffective braking. Air gap formation: Since brake fluid has certain hydrophilic properties, the longer the car is driven, the more water gets mixed in. After the water evaporates, an air gap forms between the brake pads and brake discs, causing soft and ineffective braking. Decreased reservoir fluid level: Each time the brake pedal is pressed, the fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir drops, and it rises again when the pedal is released. To ensure smooth fluid level changes, some vehicle models have vent holes in the reservoir cap (similar to the principle of vent holes in automatic transmissions, manual transmissions, and axles).
