VIDEO: Lab Tests Show Brake Hardware Effectiveness On Pad Wear

Andrew Markel discusses a lab test with three vehicles on the effectiveness of brand new brake hardware on preventing premature brake pad wear.

VIDEO: What Brake Pad Wear Can Tell You About The Hardware

Andrew Markel discusses how you can tell the condition of the brake system and hardware by looking at the wear patterns on the pads.

Brake Pad Wear Patterns: Reading The Brake Pads For Safety And Profit

Before you throw out the old brake pads or order a new set, take a good look at them.

Audi Brake Pad Wear Sensor Operation And Service

Almost every Audi for the past 20 years has been equipped with electronic brake pad wear sensors. Most of them mount the brake pad with a clip, but some are molded into the brake pad. These sensors change their electrical resistance as the loop of wire is worn down and eventually breaks as the brake pads wear down.

VIDEO: Reading Brake Pad Wear Patterns

Andrew Markel explains how brake pad wear can determine the working condition of the brake calipers based on the wear pattern. Sponsored by Auto Value and Bumper to Bumper.

Brake Rotor Wear And Measurement

Measuring brake rotors is critical to performing a pulsation-free brake job. It does not matter if the rotors are new or old, you always need to verify if they are within specification.

Electronic Brake Pad Wear Sensor Diagnostics

Electronic brake pad wear sensors can be found on a variety of vehicles, including domestics like Cadillac and Chevy. Also, brake pad wear sensors can be found on BMW, Mercedes Benz and Audi vehicles.

Brake Pad Wear Guide

Even Wear Pads have equal amounts for friction material, within 2-3mm, on both pads. Cause: • Brake caliper and connected hydraulics are operating properly. Solution: • Replace the brake pads. • Replace hardware including abutment and anti-rattle clips. • Service caliper guide pins and slides. Outer Pad Wear The outboard brake pad shows increased wear

VIDEO: Brake Pad Wear Sensors On German Vehicles

Andrew Markel shows how the brake pad wear sensors on German vehicles work to inform the customer when the pads should be replaced.

VIDEO: Brake Pad Placement For Wear Sensors

Andrew Markel explains how brake pads with wear sensors are installed and why only one way works.
