Overheated brakes



Never "grind" the brake pads, pressing the brake pedal unnecessarily. This leads to overheating of the brake, lengthening the braking distance and increased wear on the brakes.

Before going on a long steep slope slow down, switch to a lower gear {manual gearbox) or select a lower gear (automatic transmission). By doing this you use the brake as the engine and brakes to facilitate the work.

When installed in the vehicle during the operation of various spoilers
polnorazmernyk mudguards, etc. you must make sure that it does not worsen the air supply to the front brake mechanisms, otherwise the brakes will be too hot.
