★ Maintenance and upkeep of car brake systems ★
Replace the brake pads according to the mileage traveled. Brake pads and brake discs (drums) have a service life and must be replaced when they wear out to a certain extent. In normal urban driving, their lifespan is about 50000 kilometers, and the lifespan of brake pads is around 30000 kilometers. However, the specific situation still depends on the owner's operation, preferably checked every 10000 kilometers. But when braking, the car noticeably deviates to the left or right, which is caused by the asynchronous braking of the front wheels. It is very easy to cause accidents due to the brake grabbing to the left (right), especially when driving at high speeds. It is necessary to immediately go to the repair shop for brake tuning. In addition, the new car should pay attention to the brake system running in. The first 1000 kilometers of running in for a new car is crucial, and the braking system also needs to be run in to avoid emergency braking situations. In order to ensure smooth running in, the clutch should be pressed down before applying the brake. However, this is only a temporary measure during extraordinary times. After 1000 kilometers, in order to extend the life of the clutch, it is still necessary to "brake first and then release".
