The Volkswagen braking system relies on hydraulics to clamp brake pads against the rotors to create the resistance necessary to stop. All brake pads are designed to wear out and will require replacement service to restore integrity and safety. The front brake pads tend to wear out faster due to handling an additional load because the engine’s weight is on the front axle. This allows for efficient brake pad maintenance with front and rear pads replaced exclusively to get the most life out of all brake pads.
Front brake pad replacement is about installing new brake pads with maximum thickness. The certified technician removes the worn front pads, inspects the other braking parts, and installs genuine Volkswagen OEM parts to specifications. Service includes a complimentary multi-point inspection and concludes with a driving test that verifies the result.
Brake pads need replacement when they measure as little as 3mm or .1 inch thick. This is a sliver of brake pad remaining for safe braking. Driving beyond the recommendation will eventually end with the brake pads wearing down entirely with the steel shoes contacting the rotors. This is not only an unsafe situation because your vehicle won’t stop properly but will cause severe damage to the calipers and rotors. You should replace front brake pads now to protect your wallet and safety.
