When driving, you have to pay attention to everything, even the thing that at first glance may seem trivial. For example, the car vibrates when you brake, it is not normal at all, so there could be a problem with the braking system, to be solved immediately.
A problem that at first glance may seem trivial, over time can also become dangerous as well as expensive.
When while traveling by car, you perceive a slight vibration in the pedal or the steering wheel or seat, it is better to consult a professional to try to understand what may be the cause.
How to understand what could be the problem with the braking system
Generally to cause problems with the braking system, are the pads or the brake discs. We must make a clear distinction, fundamental, if the steering wheel or the pedal vibrate, then the problem is anterior. If, on the other hand, the seat vibrates then it could be a rear problem.
In this case the advice can only be to avoid aiming for risk, therefore be wary of low quality products at bargain prices, which wear out easily and do not guarantee optimal efficiency.
Rather it is better to contact a trusted mechanic, professional and buy high quality materials that guarantee resistance and efficiency at the top, over time. The pads are composed of powders which, if not well mixed, can cause the disc to overheat so much as to deform it and create unpleasant, problematic or dangerous vibrations.
Buy good quality products oncegives you the certainty that these last over time and that you do not have to face the same expense a second or third time after a few months.
Tips to avoid damaging the braking system, correct driving can limit costs
To avoid being in this situation, however, we must pay attention to small things, which in reality are not that small. First of all, you need to preserve the discs and therefore the entire braking system of the car by braking correctly. As for cars with manual transmission, it is advisable to brake intensely exerting a short pressure on the pedal.
They are to be avoided, abrupt and violent braking is absolutely not recommended. Rather it is better to decelerate gently, with the engine brake and then shifting the gears correctly. The brake should only be used to stop the vehicle. On the other hand, with regard to cars with automatic gearboxes, it is advisable to use the brake when parked, to leave the gearbox in P and not to hold down the pedal when not needed.
