1 Answers
The reasons for the brake damage warning on BMW X3 may include: the handbrake not being released or properly set, insufficient brake fluid (it is recommended to check the brake fluid level), ABS system malfunction (the solution is to have the ABS system inspected at a repair shop), severely worn or failed brake pads (simply replace them with new ones), or substandard brake fluid (it is advised to replace it with high-quality brake fluid). Disc Brakes: Also known as disc brakes, they are named for their shape. They are hydraulically controlled, with main components including the brake disc, wheel cylinder, brake caliper, and oil pipes. The brake disc, made of alloy steel, is fixed to the wheel and rotates with it. The wheel cylinder is fixed to the brake's base plate and remains stationary. Drum Brakes: A typical drum brake mainly consists of components such as the base plate, brake drum, brake shoe, wheel cylinder (brake wheel cylinder), return spring, and positioning pin.
