We come to you for brake pad replacement
Book a qualified mechanic as soon as you notice any braking problem.
Because worn out brake pads create immense pressure on the adjoining parts of your car's braking system, once brake pads have deteriorated they can't be restored to their original condition. If a brake pad has below the minimum required material on it, the only choice is to replace it.
If the disc brake rotor surface is not true, we will measure its thickness and machine it. Once all parts are fitted we will bleed the brake system entirely and make sure the brake fluid is at the correct level.
Lube Mobile makes brake repair easy by coming to your location, diagnosing your brake issue and fixing it on the spot. It's easy to book online or call 13 30 32 to make an appointment today.

How do I know if my brake pads need replacing?
The lifespan of your brake pads will depend on your driving style, the pad material, the driving terrain and the overall condition of your braking system.
Here are a some signs that your brake pads need replacing:
- • Squealing, grinding noise when applying brakes
If you hear a squealing noise when you put your foot on the brake, there's a good chances your brake pads are worn out.
- • Brake warning light
A warning light doesn't always mean that your brake pads are faulty, but can indicate low brake oil or leaking brake fluid.
- • Vibrating steering wheel or pulsating brake pedal
A pulsating sensation while braking is mostly a result of warped rotors or worn pads.
- • Burning odour when applying brakes
Overheated brakes will result in a distinct chemical odour.
- • Hard, low or spongy pedal
If your brake pedal feels spongy there could be moisture in your brake fluid which can corrode your brake components.


How much does brake repair cost?
Not every braking system issue requires a brake pad replacement.
A brake pad on it's own is not expensive, costing between $50 to $100. However, once your brake pads have failed, which is quite common, you must consider changing other parts of your braking system including the brake caliper, brake drums, brake line/hose, brake shoes, disc rotors, wheel cylinders, master cylinder or wheel hub bearing which may be worn. The price of these components will largely depend on the make and model of your car and the overall condition of your braking system.
In instances where a foreign object gets caught inside a brake caliper or there’s dust or moisture between the brake pad and brake rotor disc, our mechanics can perform minor repairs to get them fixed. In all cases, our mechanics will inspect your vehicle and provide you with an itemised quote before we start any work. Got questions? Ask us. Our friendly team is here to help!
