Brake Pads | Brake Rotors | Brake Calipers

The Volkswagen brake system is comprised of the following key components:

• Heat Shield or dust shield helps prevent grime buildup thereby extending the life of your brake system.
• Master cylinder or hydraulic cylinder converts the pressure you put on your Volkswagen brake pedals to power the rest of your brake system by feeding brake fluid into the brake circuit.
• Anti-lock Braking System pump and a computer allows your vehicle to keep traction on the road continuously.
• Brake pads or shoes are the components that physically make contact with your brake rotor and apply pressure or friction to slow and stop your wheels from turning. It's extremely crucial to keep Volkswagen brake pads fresh by replacing them as they experience quite a bit of stress every time they are used. Check your Volkswagen maintenance schedule for the advised mileage intervals.
• Rotors still called discs or drums are what your pads grip in order to stop the wheels from spinning. There are many types of brake rotors (Blank or "smooth" rotors, Cross-drilled rotors, slotted, drilled and slotted). Let find the best type of brake rotors for your Volkswagen
• Brake Hoses transmit brake fluid from the brake line to your Volkswagen brake calipers. It's made of rubber and is flexible so that it can move with the suspension. These hoses need to be examined regularly for cracks and other symptoms of deterioration. Check your Volkswagen maintenance schedule for more data on when your hoses should be replaced.
• Parking Brake cable or adjuster is a steel cable used to trigger the parking brakes. When the lever is used or pedal depressed, the cable pulls the calipers or drums to initiate the parking brake of your Volkswagen.
• Brake Calipers squeeze the brake pads up against your Volkswagen rotors to slow or stop your vehicle.
• Backing plate & return spring holds your Volkswagen braking system together so it can function properly.

Brake pads consist of two layers: a metal backing plate and a high-friction material that includes rubber, fiber, carbon & other materials. Over time, brake pads wear down and can even start squeaking. This noise is the metal backing plate & the rotor touching, which again acts as a safety measure to let you know your brakes need repair. This can again cause damage to your rotors and, in some cases, can even start distorting them. In addition to serving as a "platform" for the friction material, the backing plate again protects the brake caliper from disproportionate heat buildup.

Brake calipers cover the rotors and contain pistons. The amount of pistons depends on the type of brake system. Brake fluid from the master cylinder forces these pistons to maneuver the brake pads against the disc. The brake caliper will evenly distribute pressure against the brake disc. Generally, the more pistons in a caliper, the more evenly the pressure from the pads is spread onto the brake disc.

Volkswagen Front Brake Pads & Rotor Replacement

Wear and tear on your brakes depends greatly on your driving habits and the type of brake pads your Volkswagen has, but ordinarily front brakes wear out before rear breaks at 30,000 - 60,000 miles because they are ordinarily under much less stress.

How much does a Volkswagen Brake Flush cost?
