Braking System....
With the ever increasing efficiency of braking
systems and harder materials being used in the construction of brake pads, it
is now quite common for brake discs to wear at the same rate as your brake
pads. If you do a lot of motorway driving with high speed stop starts then disc
changes may be required at 30,000 miles. Under normal driving conditions discs
will probably last up to 60,000 miles. As a Delphi brake fitting specialist, we
ensure your vehicle is always fitted with the highest quality braking
components such as Delphi

Replace brake fluid every 24
months |
Most manufactures recommend changing brake fluid at 24 month
intervals, this is because brake fluid will absorb moisture from the air. The
water in the brake fluid causes the fluid to boil at a lower temperature. How
does it get that hot? Take a look at F1 racing, you can quite often see the
brake discs glowing. Your disc may not get that hot but quite close during high
speed braking. If your fluid boiling point is low it may cause brake fade or in
some cases brake failure. We will test your brake fluid for free, if it boils
at 180 Deg C or lower - then we recommend you have it changed (Dot 4
