What is the most important thing about driving? It must be safe. Who dares to drive without safety? Therefore, for our car in addition to the daily normal maintenance, safety is the most important thing we have to consider, the car has no temper, safety is guaranteed is the first criterion for us to drive safely.
Therefore, we have to inspect the safety-related parts of our car at the right time, such as the braking system of our car. In other words, Xiaoming has been in my house for eight years, during which time he is diligent, hard-working and does not lose his temper at random. He is a worry-free and reassuring young man. Unfortunately, the displacement was bought small at that time, and the others were really very good, and they did not have as many problems as other friends said. Relatively speaking, I may have bought a fake Xiaoming! Hehe. Time eight years, mileage 15W, the first time to change the brake pads, the report will begin immediately, welcome your guidance and criticism, but please spray gently!
Make an appointment on official account for maintenance and arrive at 4S store at the specified time.
Almost without waiting, I went into the workshop to get ready to do it.
The preparation work has been completed, little brother went to the warehouse to the original factory brake, today to change the front brake, because the rear brake is still very thick
Unloading tires is the first step in changing brake pads
The little brother still needs to stand up and loosen the screw when he tries to suck his milk.
The original brake pads from the little brother’s warehouse are made in Wuhan. Customers can take a look at the dealers.
Look at the new brake pads.
One on the back.
Remove the tires, and the other brother immediately began to remove the old brake pads.
It’s so simple, it’s so few things, you look scared!
More than 15W, this thickness can be changed, it seems that my driving habit is worth affirming.
After the two screws are removed, you can take off the brake pads.
The old one has fulfilled his mission.
The grinding is still very smooth.
Compare the new with the old!
Put on a new one.
It seems that there are really only two screws. If you tighten it, you will OK, and your heart will panic when you see it.
Done, this is finished! It looks so simple!
Look at it from different angles
Don’t forget the red circle in the picture! Be sure to pay attention to the screw lid!
The one on the right is done, and then the operation is made to the left.
Bald, ready to use.
The thickness on the left is still very reassuring, but I don’t know why there is so much difference between the two sides of the hair. are there any prawns that you know? Please let me know, thank you very much!
Comparing the left and right sides, you can see the problem right away! Why is there so much difference?
At the time of entanglement, the brake pad on the left has already started.
On the other hand, the little brother put the tire on the Xiao Ming who had changed the brake pads.
The little brother is very skilful, sharp and clean. This kind of skill can only be relieved.
The screw has been removed.
The brake pads on the left make a comparison between the old and the new! The difference is not too big, after all, 8 years 15W kilometers! Give a like for your good habit of driving every day, hehe.
The comparison between the old and the new is more intuitive.
Same brand, same taste.
It still looks thick!
Put on new brake pads now!
Put on new brake pads now!
not good! Found a new problem! Half shaft oil leak! Last time I changed the dust cover on the right, the left was also hit this time!
It seems that we will have to change the dust cover in the near future, otherwise we will be in trouble after the oil leak.
At the same time when the two photos were taken, the little brother moved so fast that he had already fixed the new brake pads on the left!
Install Xiaoming’s feet and change the brake pads. The work is almost over!
Got it!
It’s this little sister again, I know you like it, and I can’t let you down! Because the brake pads are deducted with points when they are engaged in activities before, they have not been changed, and they are just getting things back today, so there is no need to go through the financial procedures.
Done, the whole journey takes about 35 minutes, get your exit permit and go!
Summary:
The whole process of changing brake pads is still simple and not as complicated as imagined, but it may also be because the front brake is relatively troublesome, but usually there are some suggestions for individual brake pads for your reference:
First: choose which brand of brake pads. This is really radish and green vegetables have their own preferences, but I think it is the most suitable for the original factory. After comparing the results of so many tests, all aspects are always considered more carefully, and personal advice is still the original factory.
Second: when to change the brake pads. In fact, I think this really varies from person to person, and the results caused by different driving habits are completely different, so there are several ways to determine whether the brake pads need to be replaced:
1. Look at the thickness. In general, the thickness of the new brake pads is about 1.5cm. If the thickness of your brake pads is less than 0.5cm, consider replacing it.
2, listen to the sound, if we gently click the brake while accompanied by the sound of “iron rubbing”, then the brake pads can be replaced at this time, and personally feel that they must be replaced immediately, because the brake pads on both sides have already reached the limit.
3. Based on the feeling, it may be difficult to judge for beginners. In fact, a relatively easy way is that we often hear people say that the brakes are a little soft. Compared with before, you need to step on the brakes harder than before to achieve the braking effect you want, indicating that the brake pads can also be replaced.
Third: habit, to put it simply, the habit of driving is always a slap on it, so the wear and tear of the brake pads must be much more expensive and unsafe than we use some brakes every day. So daily driving is still a technical call, for a long time, it is recommended to have a good driving habit, more brakes, less sudden brakes!
-change the brake pads, tiger-
