Concerned about your brakes? Never wait until brake repairs are actually required.

Regular checks like those in our vehicle inspection report, which accompanies all full car services performed by Auto Stop Gold Coast, are necessary to ensure the vehicle's brakes are ready to stop you in time. Our expert service team can advise you if they feel that servicing or repairs of the vehicle's braking system is necessary so it doesn't turn into a more serious problem.

Our Arundel workshop is equipped with a Safe-T-Stop Brake and Suspension Testing machine which we use for every service. This allows us to test these components without leaving the workshop. It produces a detailed report which helps us to monitor any changes and risks to your braking system.

Brake pads require replacement due to significant wear and tear from the friction generated each time the brakes are applied, resulting in thinner material that reduces their ability to stop a vehicle efficiently. Ignoring worn brake pads can increase stopping distances and cause damage to other components like brake rotors, leading to costlier repairs.

Common signs that brake pads need replacing include a high-pitched squeaking or squealing noise, caused by a metal indicator in the pad, and reduced braking efficiency, indicating longer stopping times. Severe cases may involve vibrations or a grinding sensation, suggesting excessive wear and potential rotor damage. 

Driving conditions and habits also affect brake pad lifespan, with city driving, aggressive braking, and driving in hilly areas causing faster wear. Understanding these factors helps determine how often brake pads should be replaced, ensuring safety concerns are addressed promptly.

It's crucial to recognise that brake pads should invariably be changed in pairs – whether both front or both rear pads – to ensure uniform braking capability. Opting to replace only one pad at a time is not advisable and may lead to uneven wear or diminished braking effectiveness.

Brake services available at Auto Stop Gold Coast include:

Rotor And Drum/Brake Disc Resurfacing or Machining

When considering acquiring a pre-owned electric vehicle, the necessity for an informed decision-making process cannot be overstated. To cater to this need, Auto Stop Gold Coast extends its specialised services through Pre-Purchase Electric Vehicle Inspections, incorporating a comprehensive Battery Analysis.

This meticulous evaluation process is designed to equip potential buyers with critical insights concerning the health, expected lifespan, and operational efficiency of the vehicle's battery system. Given that manufacturers often assert longevity in battery life, having precise, empirical data on the battery's condition is pivotal. This information not only facilitates a judicious investment decision but also mitigates the risk of unforeseen expenses associated with battery health

The cost implications of replacing an electric vehicle's battery can be substantial, varying significantly with the battery's type and dimensions. Hence, a Pre-Purchase Battery Analysis transcends basic vehicle evaluation; it emerges as an essential element in financial planning for prospective electric vehicle owners. By providing an accurate assessment of the battery's current state and projected performance metrics, such an analysis enables potential buyers to gauge the viability of their investment. Thus acquiring a vehicle that not only meets the buyer's expectations in terms of performance and reliability but also aligns with their budgetary constraints and environmental values. Ultimately, this preemptive evaluation acts as a safeguard against the potential financial burdens associated with premature battery degradation, ensuring a more sustainable and cost-effective ownership experience.
