FAQ's
How often should brake pads be replaced?
Brake pad lifespan varies depending on driving conditions and vehicle type, but most vehicles require replacement between 30,000 and 70,000 kilometres. Regular inspections can determine when replacement is needed.
What causes brakes to squeal?
Brake squealing can be caused by worn brake pads, contaminated brake components, glazing, or hardware issues. A professional inspection can identify the exact cause.
How do I know if my clutch needs replacing?
Common signs include clutch slipping, difficulty changing gears, a high clutch engagement point, unusual noises and reduced vehicle performance.
Can I drive with a worn clutch or brake issue?
Driving with brake or clutch problems is not recommended. Continuing to drive may create safety risks and often results in more expensive repairs if the issue worsens.
How long does a clutch replacement take?
Most clutch replacements can be completed within one day, depending on the vehicle make, model and availability of parts. We can provide a timeframe after inspecting your vehicle.
