fightingraven 0 Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Here are some frequently asked questions about brake pads that you might want to know. Hope this post helpful for you đ Q: What's a brake pad? Brake pads are parts generally made of metals used to slow down the car. It's the one that scratches the brake rotor. Q: Why are my brake pads wearing down fast? There are several reasons to understand why the brake pads wear out easily. However, the most common reason is your driving habit, which may be an excessive amount of brake use. Q: Are the brake pads and brake calipers the same thing? No, the brake calipers and the brake pads are two separate parts. Brake pads are located inside the brake caliper. The brake caliper is what pushes the brake pads against your car's brake rotor. Q: How long do brake pads last? Your braking habits will impact on the durability of your brake pads. If you always drive your car at high speeds, your brake pads can wear faster due to high temperatures and high-pressure applications. Q: What are the different types of brake pads? There are three common types of brake pads, namely organic, metallic, and ceramic. Do you have any further questions about brake pads?

TonyHSD 778 Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 There is no such a thing warped disc, itâs just popular call on something that has nothing to do with warping. Baddy fixed, or badly bedded in brakes are the cause of this âwarped discâ occurrence. Pretty much any brake disc will do the job on regular car if fitted correctly and good quality brake pads been used . Buy genuine, this is a good choice, however sometimes you can get same quality parts or even better at lower price. Brake pads I am using EBC Ultimax , disc last change were Blueprint, all good so far after many miles.đ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
