FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHEN SHOULD I REPLACE THE CLUTCH ON MY VEHICLE?

If you notice anything out of the ordinary, it is a sign to visit a professional. You might find it is harder to press down on the clutch or notice unusual sounds when you change gears. Either way, Warners Bay Tyre & Mechanical is at your service to identify and fix the issue with your clutch as soon as possible.

WHY ARE MY BRAKES NOISY?

Although a minimal level of noise is acceptable, always be cautious about excessive grinding, screeching, squealing or other unusual sounds. It might be an indicator that you should have your brake system checked.

HOW LONG SHOULD MY BRAKE PADS LAST?

It varies from how you use them, which is why the usual lifespan of brake pads can be anywhere from 15,000 to 75,000 kilometres. High heat, which might be caused by constant braking, heavy loads and steep terrain, is the leading cause of premature wearing of brake pads.
