I recently purchased a new Audi R8 and I noticed it comes with carbon-ceramic brakes. I want to make sure I am properly maintaining them to ensure they last as long as possible. Can anyone provide some insight on the best methods for maintaining these type of brakes?
ReplyFirstly, make sure to regularly check the brake pads and rotors for any signs of wear or damage. These brakes are more expensive to replace than traditional ones, so catching any issues early on can save you a lot of money in the long run.
Using a high-quality brake pad and keeping the rotors clean can also extend the lifespan of your carbon-ceramic brakes. I recommend using a titanium back plate brake pad for the best results.
When driving, try to avoid prolonged and heavy braking as much as possible. This can put a lot of strain on the brakes and can lead to premature wear. Instead, try to anticipate braking and use engine braking when possible.
