Brake inspections are necessary for knowing when components require as-needed maintenance, including brake pads and rotors. Drivers also schedule inspections when braking problems surface, such as dashboard warning lights, squealing sounds from near the wheels, or taking longer to stop. Certified technicians with extensive hands-on experience working on the BMW braking system complete inspections.
Brake fluid sends stopping power from the master cylinder into the rotors attached to the wheels. Brake fluid has excellent hydraulic properties but is limited by the hygroscopic tendency to absorb moisture. Absorbing too much moisture ends with water boiling and compressing within the system. BMW recommends changing the brake fluid every two years.
Brake pads are designed to generate friction when pressed against the rotors, wearing down incrementally over tens of thousands of miles. Brake pads should be replaced when closing in on three to four millimeters thick.
Brake rotors are attached to the wheels and have a flat disc portion where friction is created with the brake pads. The disc’s flatness is compromised with intense friction and heat that causes cracks and grooves. Brake rotors with minor cracking and grooving are resurfaced to remove the blemishes and restore flatness. Rotors that cannot be resurfaced due to excessive damage need to be replaced.
We are also fully equipped and prepared for unexpected braking component repairs, including calipers, lines, hoses, master cylinders, and hardware.
