W123 Front Brake rebuild

Back in September, when I started to deal with the algae problem in my 240D, I noticed the car was quite hard to push.   At that time I tested to see if the brakes were grabbing and it was clearly the fronts that were to blame.  The rear wheels spun freely ever after a hard push on the brake pedal. Since I had the car in the air, I used the time to check what calipers I had on the car.   On the front, I had Bendix and on the back I had Girling.   Once I dealt with the fuel delivery issues, I planned to have the brakes sorted out.

Based on what I saw, I ordered rebuild kits for the front calipers, plus pads, rotors, wear sensors and all four brake hoses.  The mechanic I was using to do the job also suggested I get wheel bearings while he was in there. Having seen the condition of the fuel tank, it is obvious that this car has seen little use in recent years.   It is pretty typical of lower mileage cars that don't see much use to have binding or sticking brake calipers.   This is another reason to use classics regularly and have the brake fluid changed every couple of years. I suspect a fair number of seldom used classics could do with a brake caliper overhaul. It took me a lot longer to deal with the fuel delivery issues than I had anticipated.  The car finally went to visit the mechanic this week.  I also asked him to look at the A/C as it was no longer cold. I got the car back today and the brake feel is transformed.  He told me that he had to replace three of the four pistons in the calipers as they were all corroded.  After seeing the inside of the fuel tank that does not surprise me.   He also changed a valve in the A/C and recharged the system. Today was around 40C and the car had been sitting outside the mechanics workshop in the sun for a few hours when I picked it up.   It was a good test of the A/C.   On the move, it was quite good, but the performance in traffic was not so great.  I'm not sure if the aux fan is kicking in enough, I'll have to look at that.   On the W123 diesel the fan is only connected to the A/C pressure switch, not the coolant temperature like some of the petrol cars of this period.  This means my trick of adding a resistor to make the fan kick in more aggressively is not as easy to do. I'll first make sure the fan is actually working properly, and if it is, perhaps add something that causes it to kick in more aggressively.    I know it did before, but it is possible a relay or fuse has blown since. The 240D is now running and driving better than ever and I am looking forward to using it more in January. Read the full article

Brake System Repair Service - An Essential Aspect for Your Vehicle

Brakes play a pivotal role in the automobile industry, primarily installed to control the speed of our cars. Therefore, it's crucial to remember that brake pad replacement becomes necessary when they start to grind or squeal. Thankfully, replacing the brake pads in a car's disc brake assembly can be done easily, quickly, and with the right tools. Many people opt for DIY replacements to save money, but for those unable to do it themselves, professional brake repair services are readily available online.

Understanding Brake Pads

In modern times, most cars come equipped with front disc brake systems. As a result, front brake pads tend to wear out more quickly than rear brake pads, necessitating more frequent replacements. Brake pads should be changed once they become too thin. A persistent heavy grinding noise when applying the brakes is a clear indication that replacement is necessary. However, it's prudent to anticipate and inspect the width of the pads regularly before reaching that point.

Importance of Brake Pad Replacement

Brake pad replacement is of utmost importance for a car, as wear and tear are normal during braking operations. These friction materials play a pivotal role in the braking system, ensuring vehicle safety. Understanding the necessity of brake pad replacement involves several key factors:

Wear and Tear: Brake pads are made of metallic compounds or composite materials that press against the brake rotors to generate the friction needed to stop the rotation of the wheels. Over time, this friction causes the brake pads to wear out, necessitating eventual replacement.

Safety: Ensuring the safety of the vehicle's occupants is paramount. Properly functioning brake pads help avoid vehicle damage and accidents, while worn-out brake pads can compromise braking performance.

Preventing Damage: Prompt replacement of worn brake pads prevents potential damage to other crucial brake components, such as the brake rotors, thus avoiding more extensive repairs.

Noise Reduction: Worn brake pads can produce irritating squealing noises, indicating the need for complete replacement. Taking action on this promptly ensures silent braking.

Performance: High-quality and well-functioning brake pads significantly improve the overall braking system's performance and provide a smoother driving experience.

Avoiding Costly Repairs: Ignoring the replacement of worn brake pads can lead to severe damage to the braking system, resulting in more expensive repairs in the future. Timely replacement is a cost-effective way to maintain the vehicle's braking system and prevent costly issues down the road.

Maintaining a vehicle's braking system is vital for ensuring complete safety. Regularly checking the condition of the braking system, following the manufacturer's suggested maintenance schedule, and having certified professionals inspect the brake pads are essential steps. Replacing the brake pads when they reach their minimum thickness is necessary to ensure optimal performance.

In conclusion, brake repair is an utmost requirement, as the braking system is a critical safety feature for any vehicle. It is solely responsible for slowing down and stopping the vehicle, ensuring the safety of passengers, drivers, and others on the road.

Well, older than October 3, 1990 anyway. Yes, it's old. But then, I am old. So to me it just looks normal. The question is, can you youngsters read a Vernier scale?

Today I needed a Vernier caliper for work, and through a friend I managed to borrow one, where the owner told me, and I quote “it’s a little old, hope you don’t mind the rust”

God damn, he didn’t tell me it’s older than me!
