What are the signs that my brakes need replacing?
Common signs include squealing or grinding noises, reduced stopping power, a soft or spongy brake pedal, vibrations when braking or the vehicle pulling to one side. If you notice any of these symptoms, it's essential to have your brakes inspected immediately. Driving with worn brakes can compromise your safety and lead to more costly repairs if damage spreads to other components.
How long do brake pads typically last?
Brake pad lifespan varies depending on driving habits, vehicle type and conditions. On average, they last between 30,000 to 70,000 kilometres. City driving with frequent stopping tends to wear them out faster than highway driving. Regular servicing and inspections can help you track their wear and replace them before they become a safety concern.
What causes a clutch to wear out?
Clutches naturally wear out over time due to friction. Factors like riding the clutch pedal, towing heavy loads, stop-start driving and aggressive gear changes can speed up wear. Signs of clutch wear include slipping, difficulty shifting or a burning smell. Prompt repairs can prevent further damage to the transmission.
