A brake system service for your Volkswagen includes a full assessment of all braking components and replacement of key parts, such as the brake pads. During a service visit, our highly certified technicians may also resurface or replace the brake rotors. If required, a brake fluid exchange will also take place.
Brake pads are the point in your braking system that consistently wears. Each time you brake, the surface of the brake pad wears. Over time, the pad material becomes thinner and a change is required. When you are driving, this manifests as a squeal when the metal tab hidden inside the brake pad material becomes exposed and starts to rub against the rotor’s surface. Despite being a larger size, your front brake pads may need replacing more frequently than your rear pads because they carry the larger load of the braking system.
Each braking action sees your brake pads pressed into the rotor, or brake disc, by the caliper. This occurs due to the power of hydraulics and your brake fluid. Changing your brake fluid is also a key component of maintaining your vehicle’s health. During a service visit, a technician will assess your brake fluid to determine if it needs to be changed. If a problem is not evident, your fluid still requires changing as part of your regular maintenance schedule. Your service center will recommend the exchange approximately every two years.
At Volkswagen Clear Lake, our technicians are fully trained on Volkswagen braking system services, from basic part replacements to more complex maintenance and service issues. As Volkswagen vehicles’ braking systems have become more complex, our team has continued its education to ensure you retain all standard safety features after a service visit. We use OEM parts to ensure your car operates at peak efficiency for years to come. Call or visit us online to schedule Volkswagen braking system services for the Houston area and beyond.
