BMW Brake Service 101
Why Do My Car's Brakes Need Service?
There are several moving parts to your BMW's brakes, and they all suffer wear and tear the more you brake. The brake pads in your BMW become worn and require replacements, as do the brake rotors. These brake discs and brake pads work together to create friction and slow the spinning wheels of your BMW. Without brake service, your BMW can't generate enough friction to stop. The brake calipers act as a clamping force and also require maintenance.
How Do I Know If My BMW Needs Its Brakes Serviced?
As you come to a stop along Santa Clara Street in San Jose, you may hear your brakes squealing or squeaking. That signals it's time for BMW brake repairs. If you hear a grinding noise, the metal from the brake pads and rotors are rubbing against each other. See us for BMW brake service in San Jose if you experience pedal pulsations or vibrations with your steering wheel. Look out for leaking brake fluid underneath your BMW and a brake service light on your dashboard.
How Often Should I Get My Car's Brakes Serviced?
We recommend regular BMW brake service in San Jose, starting with an annual brake inspection. This ensures you get brake maintenance before major issues arise. Most brake pads and brake rotors need to be replaced or resurfaced within 50,000 miles. Braking issues may show up before then. Due to braking tendencies, there is no set mileage for replacing your BMW's brakes. However, your BMW will need fresh brake fluid every 30,000 miles.
What Will Happen If My Car Doesn't Get Brake Maintenance?
If you don't service your car's brakes, it will take longer to slow down your BMW on I-280 or the Lawrence Expressway. Your BMW may not be able to reach a complete stop when you need to. This creates a safety hazard and increases your accident risk, particularly during San Jose rush hour. You need to replace the brake pads or resurface the brake rotors before the metal surfaces are exposed. This causes grinding and potential brake damage.
