How a Brake Inspection works with My Auto Shop:
A qualified mechanic will check over your entire braking system to understand whats causing the issue. This includes checking of the brake fluid for contamination, brake lines, and removing the wheels to measure the thickness of the brake pads, rotors or shoes (if applicable).
The following components are looked at during a Brake Inspection:
- Brake pads and shoes
- Hydraulic fluid
- Rotor and drum wear
- Calipers
- Wheel cylinders
- All brake hardware
- All hoses and lines
- Master cylinder
- Anti-lock system
They will then quote up any repairs or replacement parts if required.
When your brake pedal vibrates or shakes its often as a result of a:
- Worn brake rotor or drum
- Worn brake pad
- Worn wheel bearings and lug nuts
- Worn Tyres

Rear Brake Pad Replacement
Asides from stopping your car when you brake, they are also required as part of your warrant of fitness. The reason you need these as part of a WoF is because they keep you and everyone else safe on the road. They’re an essential part of your car.
Brake Fluid Flush
A spongy pedal feel, increased stopping distance or a WoF failure are all things that can come about from needing a brake fluid flush. Rather than get into an accident, get your system flushed to get some peace of mind.
ABS/Wheel Speed Sensor Replacement
These sensors have a pretty important job to do. These sensors tell your car how fast the wheels are rotating, this is then checked against the vehicle speed. If one wheel is spinning faster than the others then the ABS module will apply the brakes to that wheel to slow it down. If the wheel is registered as spinning slower or not spinning at all, then the ABS module will take steps to stabilise the wheel.
Front Brake Rotor Replacement
Your brake rotors are what your brake pads are pressed against to slow the car down. They are the round, shiny, steel discs that you can see behind your front wheels. These are usually made out of steel or other strong steel materials.
