How to change front brake pads on a bmw x1


Function of brake pads:

By friction, brake pads convert a vehicle’s kinetic energy into thermal energy. In the brake, two brake pads are positioned with their friction surfaces directed toward the rotor. The hydraulic caliper compresses or squeezes the two brake pads against the rotating rotor to slow down and stop the car when the brakes are engaged.

A dull gray coating is left on the disc as a result of the friction material from the brake pad being transferred onto the disc in small amounts as it heats up in contact with the rotor. Due to application of friction material to both the brake pad and disc, friction is created between them that stops the car.

Symptoms of worn Out brake pads:

-Squeaking or Squealing Coming From Brakes.
-Grinding Sound When Braking.
-Vibration When Braking.
-Taking Longer To Stop.
-Brake Pad Indicator Light Comes On.
-Your Brake Pads Appear To Be Thin.
