What are the signs that my brakes need replacing?
Signs your brakes may need replacing include grinding or squealing noises, a soft or hard brake pedal, the vehicle pulling to one side when braking, or a warning light on your dashboard. Other indicators include increased stopping distance or a vibrating brake pedal. Regular inspections help catch these issues early before they affect safety.
How long do clutches usually last?
The average clutch lasts between 100,000 to 150,000 kilometres, but this can vary depending on driving style, traffic conditions and vehicle type. Frequent stop-start driving, towing or riding the clutch can wear it out faster. If you're noticing slipping, difficulty changing gears or a burning smell, it may be time to have your clutch checked.
Can brake and clutch repairs be done on the same day?
Yes, in many cases brake and clutch repairs or replacements can be completed on the same day, depending on parts availability and the extent of the work needed. Booking ahead and providing details about your vehicle’s symptoms can help your mechanic prepare and ensure a quicker turnaround.
