Brake Pads FAQs

How long do brake pads last?

It depends on your car, the pads and how you drive. Many brake pads last somewhere between 30,000 and 70,000km. Lots of stop start city driving, towing and heavy loads wear pads faster, while highway driving is gentler. Check your pads at every service.

How do I check my brake pads?

On many cars you can see the outer pad through the wheel spokes. Look at the thickness of the friction material against the metal backing plate. Many workshops recommend replacing pads at about 3mm. A squealing noise when braking can also mean the wear indicator is touching the rotor.

How much does it cost to replace brake pads?

It depends on your vehicle, the pads you choose, and whether the rotors also need replacing or machining. Pad prices are shown on each listing. For a fitted quote, give us a call and we'll arrange it through Chatswood Brake & Clutch.

Can I change brake pads myself?

On most cars, yes, with basic tools, a jack and stands. You'll need to retract the caliper piston, fit the new pads with any supplied hardware, torque the bolts to spec, and pump the pedal before driving. Then bed the pads in as the manufacturer recommends. If any step is unfamiliar, have a professional do it.

Should I replace the front and rear brake pads at the same time?

Not necessarily. Front pads usually wear faster, because the front brakes do most of the stopping. Replace pads as a full axle set, both sides together, and check the other end while you're there.
