Additional Information About the Service
The Installation of Sports Brake Discs significantly improves braking efficiency and makes vehicle handling safer, especially if you enjoy spirited or sporty driving. Sports discs feature better cooling due to ventilation and may have special slots or holes to expel dust and gases, helping to maintain high brake performance even under extreme conditions.
Preparation and Diagnosis Before Installation
Before proceeding with the replacement, our specialists will carefully inspect the current brake discs and associated components. We will remove the brake calipers and check the condition of the guides and pads. If the pads are worn or incompatible with the new discs, we will recommend replacing them for optimal system performance. We also clean the hubs from dirt and corrosion to ensure the new discs fit properly and prevent vibrations.
The Replacement Process and Installation of New Discs
After removing the old discs, we carefully install the sports ones, ensuring proper mounting. It is important to replace discs in pairs to ensure even braking on both sides. Sometimes old discs can be refurbished - for example, if there are minor imperfections, they can be machined, but for sports discs, we recommend a complete replacement to guarantee the best results and safety.
Function Check and Recommendations After Installation
After installing the new discs, we reinstall the calipers and check the operation of the braking system. It is crucial to ensure that the brakes operate smoothly, without noise or vibrations. We also recommend installing sports brake pads for maximum performance from the new discs. This procedure typically takes a couple of hours, and in the end, you will enjoy more reliable and effective braking that will noticeably improve vehicle handling.
