At Meta Mechanics, we are committed to providing top-tier automotive repair services to ensure your vehicle’s safety and performance. Recently, we completed a rear brake pad replacement for a Range Rover HST in Dubai. During the process, we discovered several issues affecting the brake system. Here’s a breakdown of the problems we found and the solutions we provided:
Identified Issues & Solutions:
- Worn Out Rear Brake Pads: The rear brake pads were significantly worn down, reducing braking efficiency and increasing stopping distances, which could affect vehicle safety.
Solution:
We replaced the worn brake pads with high-quality, OEM-grade replacements, ensuring the rear braking system restored its full stopping power and safety. - Uneven Brake Pad Wear: The brake pads showed signs of uneven wear, possibly due to issues with the brake calipers or improper alignment, which could lead to decreased braking performance.
Solution:
After replacing the pads, we inspected and serviced the brake calipers and ensured proper alignment to prevent future uneven wear and ensure consistent braking performance. - Scored Brake Rotors: The rear brake rotors exhibited scoring and grooves caused by the worn-out brake pads, which could have led to vibrations and reduced braking efficiency.
Solution:
We resurfaced the brake rotors to eliminate scoring and restore a smooth braking surface, ensuring proper pad contact and better braking performance. - Sticky Brake Calipers: The brake calipers were found to be sticking, which could prevent the brake pads from making proper contact with the rotors, causing reduced braking power and uneven wear.
Solution:
We cleaned and lubricated the calipers, ensuring they moved freely and applied even pressure to the new brake pads, restoring optimal braking functionality. - Old Brake Fluid: The brake fluid was found to be old and slightly contaminated, which can reduce braking efficiency and compromise overall braking performance.
Solution:
We flushed the old brake fluid and replaced it with fresh, high-quality brake fluid, ensuring the brake system operated at its best and provided smooth, reliable braking.
