At Meta Mechanics, we specialize in high-quality repairs and maintenance for luxury vehicles like the Range Rover SV. Recently, we completed a brake pads replacement for a Range Rover SV in Dubai. During the inspection, we identified several issues that were affecting the vehicle’s braking performance. Below are the problems we discovered and the solutions we provided:
Identified Issues & Solutions:
- Worn Brake Pads: The brake pads were significantly worn down, which led to reduced braking efficiency, longer stopping distances, and increased risk of brake failure.
Solution:
We replaced the worn brake pads with new, high-quality OEM-grade brake pads to restore optimal braking performance and enhance safety. - Uneven Brake Pad Wear: The brake pads showed signs of uneven wear, likely caused by misalignment or sticking calipers, affecting the overall braking balance.
Solution:
We thoroughly inspected and serviced the brake calipers to ensure they were moving freely, then replaced the unevenly worn pads, ensuring even wear and balanced braking. - Damaged Brake Rotors: The brake rotors showed signs of scoring and warping, which could have led to vibrations during braking and increased wear on the new pads.
Solution:
We resurfaced the brake rotors to remove imperfections and ensure a smooth contact surface, extending the lifespan of the new brake pads and improving overall braking performance. - Old and Contaminated Brake Fluid: The brake fluid in the system was old and contaminated, which can reduce braking efficiency and cause corrosion within the braking system.
Solution:
We flushed the old brake fluid and replaced it with fresh, high-quality brake fluid to ensure the hydraulic system works efficiently and maintains optimal braking performance. - Sticking Brake Calipers: We found that the brake calipers were not functioning smoothly, leading to dragging brakes and increased wear on the pads.
Solution:
We cleaned, lubricated, and serviced the calipers to ensure they move freely and operate smoothly, improving brake response and reducing unnecessary wear on the new pads.
