Brake Repair

Back To Services

Your braking system is one of the most important safety components of your vehicle. Worn brake pads, discs or callipers can reduce stopping power and increase braking distances.

Common signs of brake issues include squealing noises, vibrations or reduced responsiveness. Prompt inspection prevents further damage and keeps you safe on the road.

We provide comprehensive brake inspections and repairs using high-quality components, ensuring reliable stopping performance and complete peace of mind.

 

Brake Check

Our technicians work with precision to inspect all parts of the brake system subject to wear and tear, including brake pads, discs, and fluid. Using a combination of traditional skill and advanced diagnostic equipment, we provide a report detailing the condition of individual parts before listing all necessary repairs and approximate costs. Our technicians work to provide you with jargon-free and honest diagnoses, leaving you to make an informed decision regarding the maintenance and repair of your vehicle.

 

Brake Repair and Replacement

The brake system is subject to high amounts of wear and tear over a vehicle’s lifetime due to constant use. As a result, brake systems commonly require part replacement or repairs, usually brake pads, discs, and fluid. In the case of part replacement, Auto Service & Tuning Centre guarantees the use of only high quality or manufacturer-approved parts, with all work conducted to a national standard.

Brake Repair FAQs

Squealing generally means worn brake pads or dust on the brakes. It’s an early warning that pads may need replacing before they damage the discs.

A brake warning light often indicates low brake fluid or a problem with the hydraulic system. This is a critical safety alert, and you should stop driving and have it inspected promptly.

A soft pedal can indicate air in the brake lines, low brake fluid, or worn components. Seek immediate inspection, as this affects braking effectiveness and safety.

Noisy brakes can result from worn pads, glazed or uneven discs, debris, or corrosion. Squealing or grinding are common signs that pads or discs may need attention. Regular servicing can diagnose the exact cause.
