When should I change my brake pads

[dr. d]

rotors refaced? i don't know.... the usual problems are the elevated ridges running the inner and outer circumferences of the rotor. baka sumabit ang bagong brake pads... but kung hindi naman sasabit, ay hindi na kailangang i-reface.
i don't have the time to look for it right now, but someone here mentioned in his input a week or so back, that he got his rotors re-faced for less than 500 kesos for the pair.
i have been driving for decades now, and i have had my brake friction pads replaced many times. i just get whatever brand (not branded, not OEM, not casa) the mechanic gets from the store. and i do not recall whether any particular brand stood out (good or bad). my feeling is, if you are not into extremes of driving, "generic" pads will do fine..

a little ot... how much labor cost do they normally charge you for brakes check-up and brake pads replacement? including change oil and fuel filter.

[_Qwerty_]

sa toyota.. 1600 ang brake pads then 300+ ang labour.. so mga 1900+.. iba yung charge sa change oil and fuel filter..

[gutz_3110]

crosswind,

yes sir, squeaking/humuhuni kapag tumatakbo ako. nawawala kung pumepreno o nakahinto, though meron unti...ang sabi sa akin cleaning lang daw. 1 year na yun brake shoes, siguro nasa 4-5k kilometers na din.

Mga sir, pag matagal sa garahe tapos ilalabas na then brake, meron siya high pitch sound. Sign na po ba ito na dapat na palitan brake pads? Kasi po wala pa naman 8 months since last pinalitan. Thanks po

the thickness of the backing plate for the pads usually tells you to change the pads when the friction material is equal to or less than the thickness of the backing plate. it can buy you a few more miles until the next opportuned time and budget allows. if you wait until the warning tab makes that faint scraping noise, your brake efficiency may have dropped drastically since it will be prone to overheating causing brake fade.

Baka madumi lang. Baka nabasa yung rotor bago ipark o habang nakapark tapos kinalawang lang yung rotor. Then nakaskas ng brake pads yung kalawang nung nagamit na pero naiwan pa din sa brake pads yung debris ng kalawang. Observe mo muna kung mawawala kapag madalas magamit. Pag hindi nawala, palinis mo na. Makikita naman kapag manipis na pads kapag nilinis, pero tingin ko makapal pa yan. Sabi mo 8months pa lang eh. Most likely madumi lang yan.

Mga sir anong magandang brand ng brake pads for strada (odo 15000kms) except for bendix.mahal kasi masyado ang pads ng strada sa casa P7,800.00..yung asbestos ang material.ang bendix meron kasi halo ng metal kaya nakakanipis daw ng rotor..tnx in advance..

project mu bestop gamit ko sa monty at fd namin. it's japanese made and so far i've got no problems w/ it. mabibili siya sa autoplus for 3k

[joemelr]

Bakit kaya hindi ginawang stainless ang material ng brake rotor/disk para hindi na ito kinakalawang? Mahina kaya braking factor nito? ;)

[krs.spoon]

I would suggest Bosch brake pads,,,not that costly,,perfect fit pa like the original in casa,,,hindi maingay like bendix or other brands, ive tried bendix and nagsisi lang ako..

Gumamit din ako dati ng Bendix, tiis ako lage sa squeeking noise kapag nagbbrake,akala ko normal, at nakakahiya kapag may tao sa labas na nakakarinig, masakit kasi sa tenga.
After 3 years, due for brake pads replacement na, used original na, laking ginhawa na ni isang squeek wala ako naririnig.

Possible naman pala maging walang tunog ang brake system, Such a big company, pero poor results..

Minsan, okay din talaga original parts, built to perform.

Sir avoid Bendix, bad experience.. Try mo maghanap sa Banawe ng Mitsubishi parts, usually a lot cheaper vs Casa. If malayo padin difference vs 3rd party brands, saka nalang magisip isip.

And painstall mo lang labor for around 500pesos.

Have 2011 Strada MT, 58k odo, hindi pa napapalitan brake pads, pure highway driving, Ok pa naman, let me know din po ano magiging results ng sayo. Planning to change it next year.
