Keep Control with Quality Repairs
Small changes in how your car drives can point to bigger problems. If your brake pedal feels soft, if your car pulls to one side when stopping, or if your clutch grabs or slips, it’s time to get things checked. We don’t just swap out parts—we take the time to inspect the full system and identify what’s really causing the issue.
That means checking brake fluid levels, inspecting master cylinders, clutch cables, and release bearings, and road-testing the vehicle after the job’s done. Whether your car’s struggling to stop or struggling to shift, we get it sorted with repairs that last. You’ll drive away confident that your car’s stopping and starting as it should.
What are signs of worn brake pads?
Common signs include squealing or grinding noises, longer stopping distances, a vibrating brake pedal or a warning light on the dash. You might also notice a burning smell after braking. Worn brake pads reduce stopping power and can damage other components, so it’s important to have them inspected and replaced when symptoms appear.
Why does my clutch feel spongy or soft?
A soft clutch pedal often indicates air in the hydraulic line, a worn master cylinder or low fluid levels. It can also suggest wear in the clutch components themselves, such as the pressure plate or release bearing. These issues can worsen over time, making gear changes difficult or unsafe if not repaired.
How long do brake pads and clutches last?
Brake pads usually last between 30,000 to 70,000 km, depending on driving habits and conditions. Clutches often last between 100,000 to 150,000 km but can wear faster with frequent stop-start driving or towing. Regular checks during servicing help monitor wear and prevent sudden failures that could leave you stranded.
