How to Check Your Own Brakes
Checking your brakes is like giving your Audi a quick health check - and it's something you can do right at home. First, you'll want to safely elevate your vehicle, ensuring it's supported securely. Unscrew the lug nuts and carefully remove the tire to expose the world behind the wheels: the brake pad, caliper, rotor, and brake lines. Inspect the brake pad for any signs of excessive wear - if you find the pad to be less than 1/4 inch thick, it's a signal to visit us at Audi Jacksonville.

Signs You Might Need New Rotors or Brake Pads
If your Audi is performing its own version of a symphony with squealing brakes or if the steering wheel vibrates when braking, you may need new rotors or brake pads. Look out for these cues:
- Longer stopping times
- Pulsating brake pedals
- Unusual banging noises during braking
- Visible scratches, scoring, or grooves on the rotors
These signs warrant a closer look by professionals, so don't hesitate to contact our service department to ensure your Audi's performance remains stellar.
Recognizing Bad Rotors: Warning Signals and Symptoms
Learning to recognize ailing rotors early can save you from bigger brake problems down the line:
- Steering wheel shakes during stops
- Pedal pulsation, indicative of a potential rotor issue
- Taking longer to stop than usual
- Loud noises suggesting rotor cracks
Stay vigilant, and at the first sign of concern, consider replacing them. With our wealth of Audi Genuine Parts and Accessories, we'll provide the precision-crafted replacements your Audi deserves. Explore options at our Parts Department.
