CV brake pad service life extension method
Different braking methods can protect the brake pads in different environments, thus increasing the service life of the brake pads. Let's take a look at the method of extending the service life of CV brake pads.
1. Before parking, you can step on the brakes twice.
If the vehicle is still in the process of running, if you need to stop, don't step on it and don't let it go. If you step on it, it will be affected by inertia when it stops, and it will have an impact effect. If there is a motion sickness on the car. That's not good!
The correct way is to slowly step on the brakes, lower the speed first, then release the brakes. When the speed is slow, step on it again. The impact will be greatly reduced!
2. long distance, light brake
When you find obstacles in front of you, there is still a distance from you at this time. At this time, you need to loosen the throttle and lightly press the brakes. Ensure that the vehicle can stop smoothly, so that it will not only affect the passengers, but also consume less fuel!
3. bumpy road section brakes
On the bumpy section, the foot must be placed on the brakes. If the speed is slightly faster, the chassis may be damaged. Therefore, it is necessary to have a slower speed. At this time, you can carry out "point stepping", because the bumpy road surface is complicated, and the frequency of stepping on the brakes will not be low. Therefore, it seems reasonable to step on the road. It should be noted that the strength of the step is not too large!
4. sudden braking
If you really encounter an emergency, sudden braking is inevitable. Before the advent of ABS technology, many people suggested that the brakes should be pressed twice to prevent the front and rear wheels from locking. But now with ABS technology, you can step on the death in case of an emergency! However, we recommend that you drive carefully and do not have a sudden brake!
5. long downhill brakes
Long downhill brakes, the damage to the brakes is very large. It may cause problems such as overheating of the brake pads and failure of the brakes. It is recommended that you use the gear to control the speed, that is, put the gear in a gear that allows the vehicle to travel at a constant speed, not too fast. Use engine braking to control the speed of the car. Of course, at this time, the foot should be placed on the brakes, and the situation should be stepped on. After all, safety is important!
6. the brakes at the turn
When turning, do not step on the brakes because the vehicle is prone to skidding (especially when the speed is fast). Before entering the corner, you must first slow down and then turn. Therefore, the brakes should be stepped before turning, try to turn at a slow speed!
The above is about the method of braking in different situations, which can extend the service life of CV brake pads. I hope everyone can understand how to extend the service life of CV brake pads.
