Brakes & Steering

Brakes and steering components are important for any car be it Ford F-150, Acura Integra, Toyota Supra, or Subaru WRX. You are to make sure they work properly. Otherwise, accidents may occur. In this category, you can find brake kits and steering components produced by the US leading manufacturers.

Useful information about brake pads replacement

Most car manufacturers recommend replacing brake pads every 30,000 miles, i.e. each time you replace car tires. This is important as tires and brakes work together to stop the vehicle when it is needed. The importance of replacing tires and brake pads is obvious.

It is better not to wait until the brake pads are worn. Replacing them in advance will make your brake rotors “live” longer. The latter should be replaced each 100,000-120,000 miles.

There are also some important symptoms that you can use to understand that it is the exact time to change your brake pads. They are the following:

1. Squealing. These irritating noises may be heard when you press the brake pedal. Squealing appears when brake pads are worn (or almost worn). Most of the brake pads are equipped with a special wear indicator, which produces this sound once the 80% level is passed. If you don’t replace brake pads soon, this will lead to brake rotors wear, meaning you will have to install the whole brake kit, which is more expensive.
2. Pulsations in the brake pedal. This is another indicator of brake pad wear. Unlike the previous case, this may also be a sign of brake rotor wear. If this happens, try to get to the closest mechanic professional to make an inspection.

What are the most important features of a good brake pad?

There are seven important features that you should know before buying a brake pad kit. They are the following:

1. MOT (maximum operating temperature). This is the maximum temperature level before the pad will start disintegration which, in turn, will lead to unsafe driving.
2. Level of dust. Brake pads may collect dust that will cling to the wheel.
3. Vibration and noise levels. You can choose how much vibration or noise the brake pad will cause.
4. Lifetime. Pads are subject to wear. However, some spare parts have a longer life than others.
5. Weather performance. When choosing a brake pad, make sure it can be used in all weather conditions.

Useful information about steering components replacement

Steering component issues may be found during the diagnostic procedure. However, there are also some important signs helping you to understand that your steering components are worn even if you are far from the service station. Let’s have a closer look at them:

1. Difficulties when turning the steering wheel. This may happen when power steering is out of order or lacks fluid. This is also a common problem when steering components are worn.
2. Tracking or drifting problems. These issues can be detected on a highway when the car tends to steer to the right or the left itself. You need the effort to keep the course straight.
3. Lack of response from the steering wheel. Looseness can be caused by worn steering components.
4. Steering wheel vibrations. They may be caused by unequal tire inflation. However, there are more reasons for those vibrations caused by damaged or worn steering components.
5. Noises coming from the steering components.

If any of those symptoms appear, it is recommended to go to the service station right away.
