Think, are my brakes in working order?

Just like your body, when your brakes have a problem they will let you know. However, Five Star Autocentre recommends common signs of brake problems to note are:

• Brakes juddering when applied
• Rear wheels locking upon braking
• A grinding noise when the brakes are off
• A squealing or grinding noise when braking
• If the vehicle pulls to one side when braking

Keep yourself and others safe on the road. Do not delay in asking for help if you have any of the above symptoms.

As a leading Huddersfield car brake specialist, Five Star Autocentre employs technicians which are Automotive Technician Accreditation (ATA) approved to make sure your brakes are in full working order. We don’t claim to be the cheapest garage supplier for car brakes in Huddersfield. We feel that our customers would not compromise on the price of quality parts to be supplied when the subject of car safety is in question. We don’t like to fit inferior cheap manufactured parts. All our work is guaranteed for 12 months/12,000 miles on parts and labour, unlike many others that only guarantee their labour for 3 months. Five Star Autocentre can replace the brakes on any make or model of vehicle. So if your brakes need replacing, we should be able to do it that very day as we hold stock on the widest possible selection of brakes, regardless of shape and size.

Brake Maintenance

Often motorists leave checking their brakes to when their car MOT is due. However, Five Star Autocentre recommends that you have them inspected periodically. Checks are an important part of your vehicle servicing requirements. Motorists who tend to use their car for longer trips are likely to maintain their brakes for longer than those who use their cars for shorter journeys. Five Star Autocentre recommends that you look out for the following tell-tale signs of when your brake pads are in need of repair or change:

1) Pull to the right or left when braking – this normally means that there could be issues with the hydraulic elements or brakes sticking on the discs.

2) Grinding noise – this usually suggests that the brake pads have reached the minimum thickness, so you should contact Five Star Autocentre to have your car brake pads changed.

Free Brake Checks

Our FREE brake check facility gives a clear picture of the condition of your vehicle’s brakes, and whether you need new discs, pads or if the braking system itself is in need of repair. We compare all elements against the manufacturer’s specification guidelines, which means Five Star Autocentre will help you get your brakes back to the most efficient standards set.
