At Meta Mechanics, we specialize in providing exceptional automotive repair and maintenance services for luxury vehicles, including the Range Rover Velar. Recently, we completed a brake pad replacement job for a client in Dubai, uncovering several critical issues with the braking system. Below, we’ll outline the key issues found during the inspection and the solutions we implemented to ensure the vehicle’s braking system is functioning at its best.
Brake System Issues Found & Solutions
- Worn Brake Pads
Problem: The brake pads were significantly worn down, reducing their ability to create the necessary friction for effective braking, which compromised stopping power and safety.
Solution: We replaced the worn brake pads with high-quality, durable OEM parts to restore optimal braking performance and ensure the safety of the vehicle on the road. - Damaged Brake Rotors
Problem: The brake rotors had developed grooves and wear marks, which caused uneven braking and vibrations during braking. This could lead to further damage to the brake pads and reduced braking efficiency.
Solution: We replaced the damaged brake rotors with new, high-performance rotors to provide smooth and consistent braking, ensuring optimal safety and comfort. - Brake Fluid Contamination
Problem: The brake fluid showed signs of contamination, which can lead to diminished braking performance and potential brake system failure.
Solution: We flushed the brake fluid and replaced it with fresh, high-quality fluid to restore proper brake function and maintain the integrity of the braking system. - Sticky Calipers
Problem: The brake calipers were sticking, causing uneven brake pad wear and reduced braking efficiency. This issue can also lead to overheating and potential damage to the brake components.
Solution: We inspected and cleaned the calipers, ensuring they were functioning smoothly. Any damaged calipers were replaced to restore balanced braking and prevent further wear. - Worn Brake Hardware
Problem: The brake hardware, including the clips and pins, had worn out, which can lead to improper alignment of the brake pads and noise during braking.
Solution: We replaced the worn brake hardware with new, quality components to ensure the brake pads are properly aligned and the braking system operates quietly and efficiently.
