I would like to share with you a good product, Idex brake fluid and brake pads. Personally, I think this product is good, of good quality, and reasonable price. Please see the main text:
To be precise, it is not 100,000 kilometers, it is 101,138 kilometers. My brake pads were replaced during the previous 50,000 kilometers. It’s just that the brakes are a little weak recently, and they often make a harsh metallic sound. Because I had changed the brake pads once before, I was not very panicked. After changing them, I drove tens of thousands of kilometers. It’s time for a new one.


Although there is a certain difference in wear and tear between the front and back, I don’t like trouble, so I changed them together. The brake pads I bought online are more than 700 yuan of brake fluid for the front and rear brake pads, which is relatively cheap.


I chose the brake pads and brake fluid of the brand of Adex. The main thing I was interested in was that Adex is very good in the field of brake systems. It provides brake systems for many main engine manufacturers. It is the only five in the world that covers all brake systems. One of the manufacturers of brake system products and a subsidiary of Aisin Group, its quality is beyond praise. I bought it online, so I can directly choose the service store, which is still very convenient. When the goods arrived, I directly took the product and went to the store to replace it.


Pour it into a special jar and plug it into a car to remove the wheels and pump oil.


Four wheels are pulled out one after another, and new brake fluid flows into the brake discs by itself, which is quite intelligent.


I also took a special look at the old oil that was pumped out. It was quite turbid, just like gutter oil.

Compare old and new oils, you can see that the new brake oil is very clear! Continue to replace brake pads after changing the oil


Replacement of the front brake pads is relatively easy, just take them out and replace them directly.


old


new
The master said: The old front brake pads have exceeded the wear limit, and the wear of the friction pads is less than 5mm, which is very dangerous. Fortunately, I came to replace them this time, otherwise the car may not be able to brake at any time.


When the front wheels are replaced, the rear wheels are replaced, and we have to decode the code first before replacing it.


It takes about 10 minutes to remove the brake pads


In comparison with the old and the new, the friction pads of the new rear brake pads are very thick, and the friction pads of the old rear brake pads are basically worn out. Now it seems that the back is a little cold, but fortunately I came in time to replace it.


Test it, no problem

After replacing the brake pads on four wheels, I went out for a walk


Let’s talk about how you feel. First of all, the brakes really don’t feel weak anymore. They are very sensitive. They respond immediately when you step on them, and the braking distance is also shortened a lot. This Idex brake fluid still never deceives me. In addition, the metal noise from the brakes is gone. I am still very satisfied with these two things I replaced this time. I hope this car can safely accompany me for the next 100,000 kilometers!
