Brake checks are an essential part of your cars maintenance, ensuring your vehicle is safe to drive, extending the lifespan of your braking components, and reducing the risk of expensive repairs down the line. It’s crucial to inspect and maintain your braking system regularly.

Your brake system is responsible for slowing down or stopping your vehicle. It includes components like brake pads, discs, calipers, brake hydraulics, and in some cases, electronic hand brakes, all working together to ensure safe driving.

Common signs include squeaking noises, longer stopping distances, or vibration when braking. If you’re unsure, bring your vehicle to Old Mill Garage, and we’ll carry out a free brake inspection.

Brake pads typically need to be replaced every 30,000 to 50,000 miles, depending on your driving style and the type of vehicle you drive. Our team will advise you based on the condition of your brakes.
