Brake disc machining
Unevenly worn discs make a car pull when slowing down or vibrate through the body. We measure every disc against the manufacturer's minimum thickness first. If there's enough material, we machine it smooth so new pads sit flush. If there isn't, we'll recommend replacing it rather than compromise your safety.
Common questions
Do brake discs always need machining when pads are replaced?
Not always. It depends on the condition of the discs and how many times they've been machined before. We measure them against the manufacturer's minimum thickness and advise you either way.
Are brakes checked during a service or pink slip?
Yes. If you've recently had a pink slip, tune-up or general service with us, your brakes will already have been checked. If you notice any warning signs since, book in straight away.
