When Should Brake Discs Be Replaced?
1 Answers
Brake discs need to be replaced at 70,000 kilometers, while brake pads require replacement every 30,000 to 40,000 kilometers. Conditions to determine whether brake discs need replacement: 1. A metallic scraping or squealing sound occurs when lightly applying the brakes; 2. The brake pad warning light on the instrument display serves as an indicator for brake disc replacement; 3. The total wear depth on both sides of the brake disc reaches 3mm. When the driver presses the brake pedal, a series of transmissions control the brake pads to clamp the brake disc. Over time, both the disc and pads will gradually wear down, and severe cases may even lead to fractures. These conditions can affect braking performance, and in extreme cases, complete brake failure may occur, potentially endangering lives.
