Before the New Year, I went to the 4S shop for a free long-distance driving inspection and found that the front and rear brake pads were too thin. The master told me: Based on the calculation of the driving mileage, I would have to consider replacing the rear brake pads after driving at most 5000 kilometers. The front brake pads can still be used. Run more. Be sure to come and take a look after driving about 3000 kilometers to prevent damage to the brake discs. Shi Fu likes him very dedicated and kind. Although he is not asking you to change in a 4S store, he still considers and advises him from the perspective of car owners ‘economy based on the actual situation.
I didn’t run much during the Spring Festival, just over 2000 kilometers back and forth. Although he can still run again based on the master’s experience, he always feels weak. When driving, he always thinks of using less brakes if he can, for fear of accidentally injuring the brake discs. This idea seriously affects driving safety and driving experience. These brake pads and brake discs are not at the same price level, so it’s better to change them, and the cost is not high.
After three years of driving and traveling 10,000 kilometers, the rear brake pads were replaced for the first time. I don’t know what my driving habits are, but judging by the time it takes to replace brake pads, I think it should be a good habit. Most of the motorists change from 30,000 to 40,000 kilometers. The minimum number of local motorists in the circle is 18,000 kilometers and the maximum number is 50,000 kilometers. The differences in itineraries are still very large, so driving habits are important.
Of course, our brake pads cannot be compared with other car series masters. They often cost 100,000 +. I heard from the 4S master that our brake pads are made of environmentally friendly materials, and the quality is a bit soft. 40,000 – 50,000 kilometers is basically the limit.
I won a set of brake pads during the lottery session of the annual meeting, provided by Lao Zhang Hei, so I had time to collect wool today.
There is a simple caliper measurement, red as a warning, meaning that it is thinner and needs to be replaced.
The master checked again to confirm whether it needed to be replaced to avoid waste. The rear brake has a set of left and right inner and outer pieces. Three pieces are good and can be used, but one piece is very thin.
The brake disc was not damaged, only slight groove marks.
Look at the thickness of the friction material here. You can see it without removing the wheel. If you have bad eyesight, you can take a photo with your mobile phone and zoom in.
This is the piece of the right rear wheel. For some reason, it’s a little crooked. The slopes of the inner and outer plates have been ground.
The brake pads on the left rear wheel are ok thick and feel like they can run tens of thousands of kilometers. But there are no individual replacements for this thing, so they are all replaced by sets.
Network diagram quotes, the structure of brake pads.
See the two rivets on the back? If the brake pads are not replaced in time, this rivet is the biggest murderer of damage to the brake discs. Rivets are used to strengthen the friction material of the brake pads, about millimeters, so once the thickness of the friction material of the brake pads is less than 5 millimeters, it must be checked frequently.
Lao Zhang’s goods are all original and authentic, and this brake pad is made in Italy.
An engine compartment cleaning was given as a gift.
It was a little more than 40,000 kilometers away. I forgot to take pictures before replacing them. This was taken after replacing them.
What I like most is this large-screen LCD display, and the middle map also has a live picture. During the enhancement process, you can clearly see the navigation by swiping down slightly, without having to turn your head to look at your phone or the central control. This is also the reason why I spend more than ten thousand yuan to add navigation to the sports version.
Another kind of real scene (there are not many such real scenes, and it is probably only found in local landmark buildings)
Set up a post to commemorate and record life. Come back and compare next time!
