Bentley-Certified Brake System Maintenance
We provide a complete brake system service menu according to certified quality. Hydraulic brake fluid sends stopping power from the master cylinder into the calipers that press the brake pads and rotors together, creating friction and resistance to forward momentum. Brake fluid collects humidity/moisture that vaporizes within the system and risks reliable performance. Bentley recommends brake fluid exchange service every two to three years to promote peak stopping power. Brake pads generate friction with the rotors and wear down with use, requiring replacement service when three to four millimeters remain on the steel backing plate. Regular brake system inspections include measuring the brake pads to know when they need replacement. Brake rotors bolted to the wheels experience grooving/scoring and require resurfacing or replacement due to the wear and tear severity. An inspection provides the depreciation details needed to know if the rotors can get resurfaced or need replacement. We also repair other brake system components, including calipers, lines, hardware, master cylinders, and hoses.

Signs You Need New Brakes
Strange Noises
Once you begin hearing screeching or squeaking when stopping, you'll want to get a Bentley brake check and inspection. It's likely you need new brake pads. If you hear clicking or very loud grinding noises when coming to a stop, get to a Bentley brake shop right away to check your brake rotors.
Pulsating Brake Pedal
If you feel your foot vibrating when pressing down on the brake pedal, your brake pads are probably worn out. Driving aggressively can cause premature brake pad failure due to overheating, which will quickly result in "glazing" of your brake rotors - a problem you don't want to overlook.
Slow to Stop
Applying brake pressure but not ever coming to a full stop can cause "brake fade," which essentially means your car's brake pads and rotors are making lots of contact for longer periods of time. It's better to apply firm pressure on your brake pedal to avoid issues like slow stopping.
Car Moves When Braking
Vehicles shouldn't vibrate, shake or swerve when braking - they should just stop. If your Bentley pulls to the side, shakes violently, or causes your steering wheel to vibrate when approaching a stop, you could be looking at worn brake pads or something else, like broken ball joints, faulty wheel bearings, or defective brake calipers.
Burning Metal Smell
Once you begin smelling metal-on-metal odors when braking, your brake rotors and pads are already toast. You'll need to get a full brake job, which includes, at the very least, new brake pads and rotors. Always hire a professional brake installer and auto technician!
How Long Should Bentley Brakes Last?
Fortunately, Bentley vehicles have some of the highest-quality brakes in the world. Still, all car brakes must eventually be replaced. When? Brake lifespan depends on a few factors:
1. Driving habits
If you brake hard or suffer from "brake fade," you'll need new Bentley brakes more frequently than other drivers.
2. Type of car
A performance sports car will have more stopping power, but their brakes will wear out much more quickly than a grand tourer like a Bentley Continental.
3. Environment
Lots of stop-and-go driving will result in reduced brake lifespan, as will driving in harsher climates.
4. Brake pad material
The hardness of your brake pad material (ceramic, organic and semi-metallic) will determine how long they last in ideal situations.
As a general rule of thumb, get a brake inspection with every tire rotation and oil change, and have your brake pads changed out as needed, roughly between 30,000 and 50,000 miles. Brake rotors tend to last longer than brake pads. However, you'll need an experienced Bentley technician to assess your braking system thoroughly.
