At Meta Mechanics, we take pride in offering expert repair and maintenance services for luxury vehicles like the Range Rover Velar. Recently, we completed a rear brake pad replacement job for a client in Dubai. During our inspection, we discovered several issues with the braking system that needed immediate attention. Below, we highlight the key issues found and the solutions we provided to restore the vehicle’s braking performance to its optimal level.
Rear Brake System Issues Found & Solutions
- Severely Worn Rear Brake Pads
Problem: The rear brake pads were significantly worn, reducing braking efficiency and leading to potential safety risks. This caused the vehicle to take longer to stop, especially under heavy braking conditions.
Solution: We replaced the worn-out rear brake pads with high-quality, OEM-grade replacements to restore optimal braking performance, ensuring the vehicle stops efficiently and safely. - Unevenly Worn Brake Rotors
Problem: The rear brake rotors showed signs of uneven wear, leading to vibration and a rough braking feel. This could also accelerate further damage to the brake pads.
Solution: We replaced the unevenly worn rotors with new, precision-machined rotors, ensuring smooth and even braking, eliminating vibrations, and improving overall comfort and performance. - Brake Fluid Contamination
Problem: The brake fluid was found to be contaminated, which can cause poor braking response, overheating, and reduced safety.
Solution: We performed a full brake fluid flush, replacing the contaminated fluid with fresh, high-quality fluid to restore the brake system’s performance and ensure safe, responsive braking. - Sticking Brake Calipers
Problem: The rear brake calipers were sticking, leading to uneven brake pad wear and reduced braking efficiency. This issue could also cause excessive heat buildup and further damage.
Solution: We thoroughly cleaned and lubricated the brake calipers, ensuring they functioned smoothly. Any faulty calipers were replaced to ensure even pad wear and improve overall braking performance. - Worn Brake Hardware
Problem: The brake hardware, including the clips and pins, had worn out, leading to improper alignment of the brake pads and possible noise during braking.
Solution: We replaced the worn-out brake hardware with high-quality, durable components, ensuring the brake pads were properly aligned and reducing any unnecessary noise during braking.
