Brake Pad And Rotor Replacement

Brake pads make a noise when they are worn out and need replacement. This noise will sound like metal scraping in the wheels when the car is moving. The sound will get louder as the brakes are used. The brake is designed to make this noise as an early warning signal that the pads need to be changed.

There are two ways to check for brake wear on disc brakes: by looking and by listening. First, check for wear by looking at your brake pads through the spaces between the wheel's spokes. The outside pad will be pressed against a metal rotor. Generally, there should be at least 1/4 inch of pad. If you see less than 1/4 inch of pad, you may want to have your brake pads inspected or replaced. Brake pads that are severely worn down often leave deep, circular grooves in the rotor. These grooves are also known as "scores", and look similar to the marks on a record. If these grooves are visible on the rotors, the brake pads need replaced.

Moreover, if the grooves are particularly deep, the rotor may also need to be turned or replaced.
