How to maintain the brakes on an Audi 80?

I recently purchased a used Audi 80 and I am unsure about how to properly maintain the brakes. Can someone give me some advice on how to keep them in good condition? Any specific products or techniques to use?

Hi Samuel, the first thing you should do is regularly check the brake fluid level and replace it if necessary. This will prevent any potential damage to the braking system. Additionally, make sure to have the brake pads and rotors inspected every 12,000 miles or as recommended by the manufacturer. If they are worn out, it's important to replace them to ensure proper braking performance. Lastly, consider using high-quality brake pads and rotors for optimal performance and longevity.

Hi Samuel, changing your brake fluid every 2 years is highly recommended. Old fluid can lead to corrosion and decrease the efficiency of your brakes. Also, make sure to clean and lubricate the caliper pins regularly to prevent them from getting stuck. And as a personal tip, avoid tailgating and sudden hard braking, as this can wear out your brake pads faster. Proper maintenance will ensure your brakes last a long time.
