mga bossing...
ask ko lng ano ang maririnig mo or mararamdaman pag pudpod na ang brakepad...salamat po.
Questions:
When should i add the break fluid? When its on low level only or it is possible to add in the medium level...?
difference of DOT 3 & DOT 4?
Is it possible to mixed them? Because i forgot to ask the mechanic which brake fluid did he add durings pms..
Edit:
The brand of brake fluid is not stated on the manual. So, in this case, what brand can you recommend for me to use?
Thanks
Brake fluid absorbs moisture so it's good to replace this from time to time. Most manuals recommend every 40,000kms but in my case i do this every 20,000kms. Mura lang naman.
Difference between DOT3 and DOT4 is their heat range; DOT4 can take higher tempatures and is used mostly for performance purposes suchas track days or those who do a lot of hard mountain driving. In most cases, DOT3 is fine. The only time i have encountered oveheating brake fluid was on the track. DOT4 is more expensive and i think they are more hygroscopic.
Need your opinion brothers. My car is nissan sentra 2007 gx model. I have to replace my break pads to original kasi yung bendix na gamit ko hindi maganda for my tires. Then my wheels need bearing replacement I got this quote from a mechanic that works for nissan. All original parts daw toh. Ask ko lng kung tama lng ba yung price. Note lng i hhome service niya yung repair
"sir gd eve ung wheelbearing sa harap 2,742 po ang isa *2 , ung breakpads po 3,748,ung caliperpin with bushing 839 po ang isa *4 ung wheelbearing assembly 7,185 ang labor ko po 2,500 ang total po lhat 22,273"
bring it to banawe or pedro gil, po. i do this, and i get off-the-shelf parts, as recommended by the mekaniko there.
you can save about 50%.
and casa does not hold the patent to parts quality.
just stay away from the "very cheap" parts.. you know.. "the parts bayan sellers use"..
heh heh.

ginto ang pyesang casa. pero may makukuha ka pang magandang brands comparable to oem quality sa mas mababang presyo.
OT.....grinasahan ko yung caliper pins pati na rin yung pin boots ng sasakyan ko gamit silicone grease. nilinis din syempre mga brake pads at discs. kaso after a few miles e may squeaking sounds kapag nagtuturn to the left at speeds higher than 20 kmh. hmmmmm.
