Brake Repairs in Dundee

Brake pad prices depend on the vehicle, the pads required and whether the front or rear brakes need doing. Send us your registration and we'll give you a price for your car.

The price for pads and discs varies considerably between vehicles. Send us your registration and tell us whether it is the front or rear brakes, and we can quote for your vehicle.

Not always. Discs only need replacing when they are below the manufacturer's minimum thickness, scored, warped or badly corroded. We measure and inspect them and tell you what is needed.

Squeaking can be caused by worn pads reaching their wear indicator, glazed pads, surface rust on the discs, or dirt and debris. A grinding noise often means the pads are worn through and should be checked straight away.

Vibration under braking is often caused by uneven disc wear or disc thickness variation. It can also be related to suspension or wheel issues. An inspection will find the cause.

A shaking steering wheel when braking usually points to the front discs, but worn suspension or steering parts can also be involved. We can inspect the car and tell you what is causing it.

Signs include squealing or grinding, longer stopping distances, a pad wear warning light on some cars, or a brake pedal that feels different. Pads can also be checked during a service.

A soft or spongy pedal can be caused by air in the system, a fluid leak or old brake fluid. A hard pedal can point to a servo problem. If the pedal sinks or feels very soft, don't drive the car and contact us.

Yes. We inspect the brakes first and only recommend the parts that actually need replacing, with a price agreed before work starts.
