brake pads and rotors FAQs
When to replace brake pads
- Milage: A general guideline is every 25,000 to 70,000 miles, but this varies significantly based on driving habits and conditions.
Do I need to replace both rotors and pads?
It is best to replace them together. New pads on worn rotors will wear the new pads down prematurely and won't provide the best stopping performance
When should I replace my brake pads and rotors?
brakes and rotors involve knowing when to replace them, which typically includes noticing symptoms like grinding or squealing noises, vibrations in the brake pedal or steering wheel, and visual cues like grooves or a bluish tint on the rotors. Mechanics often recommend replacing brake pads and rotors simultaneously to ensure optimal performance and longevity, and the typical lifespan is between 30,000 and 70,000 miles, depending on driving habits and rotor quality.
What causes rotors to warp?
Warping is often caused by heavy braking and overheating, but poor driving habits and age can also contribute..
