Brakes

At Specialist Vehicles, our experts will check each component carefully and replace any that are worn to ensure that your car is fit to keep you safe. We can supply and fit disc brakes, disc pads, brake calipers and brake pipes for makes such as Audi, BMW, Jaguar, Mercedes, Porsche, Volkswagen, Land Rover and more.

If you are local to Plymouth, Devon and Cornwall and are concerned that there could be an issue with your vehicle’s brakes, book an inspection at Specialist Vehicles as soon as possible. If there is a problem, a warning light may appear on your dashboard, but other signs of faulty brakes can include the following:

• Juddering when the brake is applied can be a sign of an issue with the brake disc
• A grinding noise when the brake is applied could be a sign of a worn brake pad and if left unreplaced, this could cause damage to the brake disc
• If your brake pedal feels hard, soft or spongy, the brake fluid might not be working effectively
• Squealing can indicate a number of issues to do with the brake pads, disc or caliper
• The vehicle pulling to one side upon braking could be a sign of a problem with the caliper
• If the handbrake is too high or failing to hold the vehicle effectively, it may need adjusting

Any of these symptoms could be a serious cause for concern and should be investigated immediately. Contact Specialist Vehicles in Plymouth or book online and we will get your car back in full working order, preventing further damage and most importantly, ensuring that you will be safe while driving.
