Brake pads are the main component of the braking system. With the daily wear and tear the brake pads get worn out. Generally, brake pads need to be replaced periodically, but replacing the brake pads is not always easy for driver of the vehicle to know that the brake pads have worn out and need replacement. To solve this problem, brake pads have a small piece of metal known as indicator attached to them.

Usually, the indicator is at a slight distance from the pads in times when the pads are in perfect working condition, but once the pads are worn out it touches the disc. When the indicator touches the brake disc it makes a high-pitched squealing sound to indicate that the pads are in bad health and needs replacement. When this happens you should not wait long for the replacement of pads though it is not an emergency situation. But this is necessary for the safety of your vehicle and yourself and also other road users. At Call 096364919 Disc Brake pads Auckland  you can get your brake pads checked for proper functioning
