BRAKE
SERVICES

It all starts with a brake inspection. We’ll take a look at your brake pads, brake fluid, and brake rotors to make sure everything operates as it should. Our technicians will have a better idea of what brake system components need attention after a brake inspection. If anything looks out of the ordinary, we’ll let you know our recommendation on how to proceed.

Replacing the brake pads on your Volkswagen is the most common form of brake service. We recommend having your brake pads replaced between 25,000 – 40,000 miles, depending on your average driving conditions. Typically, your front brake pads will require replacement before the rear brake pads since there is more weight in the front of your vehicle.

The brake fluid is the hydraulic fluid that enables your brake pads to squeeze against your rotors. A spongy brake pedal is a sign that your brake fluid needs attention. We can identify leaks in your brake system or perform a brake fluid exchange to ensure your brake system works as designed.

The surface smoothness of your Volkswagen’s brake rotors directly correlates to how smooth you come to a stop when you press on the brake pedal. Your brake rotors can develop uneven wear patterns even during the best of driving conditions, so we recommend having your brake rotors resurfaced each time you replace the brake pads.
