Estimates brake pad replacement timing based on wear indicators and driving patterns. Safety-critical maintenance to prevent failure.
Stapsgewijze handleiding
- 1Measure brake pad thickness (new 12-14mm, replace at 3-4mm)
- 2Monitor brake warning lights
- 3Assess wear from braking behavior (stop-and-go = faster wear)
- 4Schedule replacement before reaching minimum

Veelgestelde vragen
What's typical brake pad lifespan?

Why do my brakes wear unevenly?
Alignment issues, dragging caliper, or driving habits (front pads wear 2× faster than rear).
