Should you notice any symptom indicating a potential problem with a car's braking system, please call us straight away to make an appointment with our Woolner car service workshop to have the brakes checked before it gets any worse.

Your brakes are one of the most significant safety features of your vehicle, and if they are not in optimal condition, it could lead to dangerous consequences. 

The brake system of any vehicle is a critical component that is essential for safety on the road. Brake failure can occur unexpectedly and could result in severe accidents and injuries. Below are three possible signs of brake failure in a car:

1. Squealing or Grinding Noise: If you hear squealing or grinding noises coming from the wheels of your car when you apply the brakes, it's likely that the brake pads are worn down. When this happens, metal parts could start grinding against each other, leading to significant brake failure.

2. Vibration in the Pedal: Another sign of potential brake failure is when the brake pedal vibrates or pulsates when you step on it. This could be a sign that the brake rotors are warped, which could lead to decreased stopping power or loss of control.

3. Slow Response Time: A delay in braking could be another indication of a brake system problem. When you apply the brakes, there should be an immediate response. If you feel a delay or hesitation in the brakes, it could indicate an issue with the hydraulic brake system.

If any of these appear, it is crucial to get your brakes serviced and inspected quickly. Regular brake checks can protect you from any major issues, keeping you safe while on the road.

At Pauls Service Centre, we provide brake services including brake pad replacements, brake rotor resurfacing and replacements, brake fluid flushes and replacements, brake caliper service and more. Our skilled technicians utilise top quality parts and tools to guarantee your brakes are working at their finest.

Moreover, we provide a Repco Authorised Service Nationwide Warranty that covers our services for up to twelve months or 20,000 kilometres, whichever happens first. This warranty provides you peace of mind knowing that if any difficulties arise from our services, you will be covered no matter where you are in Australia.

It is essential to have regular brake service and inspections for the safety of you and your passengers. If you are noticing any signs of bad brakes, visit our Woolner workshop today for professional brake service and repairs.

The braking system in a car is made up of various components that work together to ensure safe and effective stopping power. Over time, wear and tear can cause these components to fail or require repairs. Let Pauls Service Centre fix your brakes today.

The braking system cannot work to its maximum performance if the tyres are worn or otherwise unsuitable for the car or type of driving you undertake.

Brake fluid transfers the pressure you put on the brake pedal through to the actual brakes.
Without the brake fluid your brakes quite simply would not work. As everyone knows - not having brakes is a huge problem! In fact even slightly affected brakes are very dangerous.


Brake fluid absorbs moisture very easily. Brake fluids are also subject to very high temperatures and so they are designed to have a high boiling point to stop them from boiling and evaporating- when brake fluid has accumulated too much moisture- this lowers its boiling point and it can boil off more easily causing low levels. Low levels of brake fluid affect your braking performance and could mean your car will fail to stop.
Brake Fluid that has absorbed too much moisture will also shorten the life of your braking system including damaging the callipers, wheel cylinders and anti-lock braking systems.

Why is brake fluid replacement necessary?

Your manufacturer's log book will advise how regularly your brake fluid should be changed or flushed, we recommend a drain and replacement every two years however it is wise to have it regularly checked by an expert at every service to make sure the levels are not reducing too fast (a sign of a leak) or that the moisture levels have not reached a point that could be damaging your system.

How often should I replace my brake fluid?

At Pauls Service Centre we offer a full 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report, upon request, with every full car service which includes a written review of your brake fluid, master cylinder, front and back discs and pads, callipers and cylinders and more. This inspection helps to identify any issues in your vehicle which should be addressed and our mechanics will certainly advise you if they feel your vehicle might need a brake fluid replacement, or an out of schedule brake system service or repairs.

Do you check the brake fluids during a car service?

Without the brake fluid your brakes quite simply would not work.
