The replacement of vehicle brake pads is the most important stage in car maintenance. The brake pads endanger the function of the brake pedal and are related to the safety of travel. The damage and replacement of the brake pads seems to be very important. When it is found that the brake pads are worn and need to be replaced, a friend asked if the four brake pads should be replaced together? In fact, under normal circumstances, it is not necessary to change them together.
The degree of wear and service life of the front and rear brake pads are different in many cases. Under normal driving conditions, the braking force of the front brake pads will be relatively large, and the degree of wear is often greater, and the service life is shorter. Generally, it needs to be replaced about 3-50,000 kilometers; then the brake pads bear less braking force and can be used longer. Generally, 6-100,000 kilometers need to be replaced. When disassembling and replacing, the coaxial ones must be replaced together, so that the braking force on both sides is symmetrical. If the front, rear and left brake pads are worn to a certain extent, they can also be replaced together.
Brake pads cannot be replaced alone, it is best to replace a pair. If all are exhausted, four can be considered for replacement. Everything is normal. The front 2 are replaced together, and the last 2 are returned together. You can also change the front, back, left and right together.
Car brake pads are generally replaced once every 50,000 kilometers, and the brake shoes are checked once every 5,000 kilometers of the car. It is not only necessary to check the excess thickness, but also to check the damage of the brake shoes. Is the level of damage on both sides the same? Is it easy to return? If you find an abnormal situation, you need to solve it immediately.
