The general checks of brake system
|
The dust formed as a result of deterioration of overlays and accumulating on components of the brake mechanism, can contain hazardous to health asbestos. Do not blow this dust by means of compressed air and do not inhale it! Do not use solvents on the basis of gasoline for dust removal. |
|
Except checks through the established intervals of time a condition of brake mechanisms it is necessary to spend each time at removal of wheels or at occurrence of signs of malfunction in system. |
Signs of malfunctions in brake system
Disk brake mechanisms have the built in indicators of deterioration of the frictional overlays, signalling that deterioration of overlays has reached critical size. Thus overlays should be changed immediately, differently brake disks will be damaged also by it expensive repair is required.
Any of listed below signs can specify in potential defect of brake system:
- At squeezing of a pedal of a brake the car "withdraws" in one party;
- Brake mechanisms at braking publish scraping or squealing sounds;
- The brake pedal has an excessive course;
- The brake pedal pulses (it normally only at system ABS work);
- Leaks of a brake liquid (usually appreciable tyres on an inside or wheels) are observed.
In case of detection at least one of these signs immediately examine brake system.
Brake lines and hoses
|
In brake system basically steel brake tubes, except for the flexible reinforced hoses at wheels are used. Regular survey of all these lines is very important. |
|
- Park the car on an equal platform.
- Поддомкратьте the car also establish it on props then remove wheels.
- Check up all brake lines and hoses on presence of cracks and attritions in their external covering, leaks, swellings and deformations. Check up brake hoses in forward and back parts of the car on presence of signs of a softening, cracks, deformations or deterioration as a result of a friction about other components. Check up all штуцерные connections on presence of signs of leaks and make sure of reliability of fastening of all bolts and clips of brake hoses.
- Bend hands in one and other parties a brake hose to reveal damages. To braid hoses does not follow.
- Turn a steering wheel to the right and to the left against the stop. Make sure, that hoses thus do not touch elements of a design of the car.
- At detection of leaks of a liquid or their damages it is necessary to eliminate immediately. For more detailed description of procedure of repair of brake system address to the Head Brake system.

Check of a thickness brake колодок and disks
|
- Поддомкратьте the car also establish it on props then remove a corresponding wheel.
|
- Check up a thickness of overlays brake колодок and through an aperture in a support of the brake mechanism.
|
- Deterioration limit колодки the thickness of an overlay is considered of 1.0 mm (without a metal substrate). In this case brake колодку it is necessary to replace (the Brake system) see the Head.
|
As a rule, 1 mm of deterioration brake колодки corresponds, at least, 1000 km of run under adverse conditions of operation. In usual conditions of an overlay are erased much more slowly. So, at a thickness of a brake overlay of 3.0 mm (without the substrate account) brake колодок will suffice still, at least, on 1500 km of run. |
- In case of doubt in correctness of measurement remove brake колодки and measure a thickness of an overlay by a calliper. If deterioration degree is already reached, replace brake колодки. Thus replace all 4 overlays of wheels of one axis, even in the event that one overlay has worn out only.
- Check up supports of the brake mechanism on presence of leaks. At leaks urgently repair a support of the brake mechanism.
- Visually check up brake disks with internal and an outer side on presence of furrows, a rust, cracks, if necessary replace disks.
|
- Measure a thickness of brake disks in several places by means of a micrometer or a special calliper. It is possible to measure also a thickness of a brake disk by a usual calliper, having enclosed with its each party a lining of known size (for example, two coins), and then having subtracted from the measured value a thickness of a lining.
|
- Compare minimum of the received results to requirements of Specifications to the Head Brake system. If the deterioration border is reached, replace necessarily both brake disks of wheels on one axis. Also it is necessary to replace a brake disk and at the big cracks or furrows with depth more than 0.5 mm.
- Establish wheels and lower the car on the earth.
|
|
Check of a lay brake
|
- Park the car on an equal surface and release a lay brake.
- The car should move manually, action of brakes should not be felt.
- Cock the lever of a lay brake on 1 click (the European models) or press a pedal of a lay brake (the American models), the car should remain on a place at attempt to shift it manually.
- Completely cock the lever of a lay brake (the European models) – it should not be cocked more than on 5 clicks. Otherwise adjust a lay brake (the Brake system see the Head).
