Yes, just bought a 2007 3010 trans 4x4, and the brakes started grabbing. Took it to the shop and shoes were in good shape. The grabbing stopped after I

bleed off at all four wheels. I don't have much play in the brake peddle. It has

done this twice and I have to bleed the brakes to free them.

Nothing appears to be worn, but sure would like to know what is causing

them to grab.

How can I effectively use WD40 for brakes maintenance?

It is not recommended to use WD40 on brakes as it can cause the brakes to become less effective. It is best to use brake cleaner specifically designed for brake maintenance.


How long before rear brakes and rotors should need to be replaced on a new town and country?

All cars have the brake system designed to make a loud screeching noise when the pads get low. Most people do not do the proper maintenance on their brakes, which is lubing of parts. This maintenance ensures even wear of the pads and or any problems will be noticed. Most braking is done with the front brakes so rear brakes tend to last much longer. Five plus years before having to do the rear brakes is not unusual.


Is the C class prone to front suspension problems as you can hear a slight rumble when braking on the OS?

Prone to it - NO. Do these parts, brakes and suspension/steering need maintenance and repair..sure.


What are the differences between mechanical disc brakes and hydraulic disc brakes in terms of performance and maintenance?

Mechanical disc brakes use a cable to actuate the brake caliper, while hydraulic disc brakes use fluid pressure. Hydraulic brakes generally offer better performance and modulation, as well as requiring less maintenance compared to mechanical brakes.

How do cable actuated hydraulic disc brakes differ from traditional hydraulic disc brakes in terms of performance and maintenance?

Cable actuated hydraulic disc brakes use a cable to activate the hydraulic system, while traditional hydraulic disc brakes are activated directly by hydraulic fluid. Cable actuated brakes may require more frequent adjustments and maintenance compared to traditional hydraulic brakes, which typically offer better performance and require less maintenance in the long run.


What are the differences between mechanical and hydraulic brakes in terms of performance and maintenance?

Mechanical brakes use cables to activate the braking mechanism, while hydraulic brakes use fluid pressure. Hydraulic brakes generally provide better performance and require less maintenance compared to mechanical brakes. Hydraulic brakes offer more precise control and better stopping power, but may be more complex to repair. Maintenance for hydraulic brakes typically involves checking and replacing the brake fluid, while mechanical brakes may require adjustments to the cables and brake pads.


How do hydraulic bike brakes differ from traditional cable-actuated brakes in terms of performance and maintenance?

Hydraulic bike brakes use fluid to transfer force, providing more consistent and powerful braking compared to traditional cable-actuated brakes. They require less maintenance and offer better modulation and control.


What are the differences between disc brakes and hydraulic brakes in terms of performance and maintenance?

Disc brakes use a caliper to squeeze pads against a rotor to stop the bike, while hydraulic brakes use fluid to transfer force from the lever to the caliper. Hydraulic brakes generally offer better performance and modulation, but require more maintenance and expertise to service compared to mechanical disc brakes.


How effective is using WD40 on brakes for lubrication and maintenance?

Using WD40 on brakes for lubrication and maintenance is not recommended as it can compromise the braking performance and safety of the vehicle. WD40 is not designed for use on brake components and can cause the brakes to become less effective. It is best to use products specifically designed for brake maintenance to ensure optimal performance and safety.


What is a brake specialist and where do I find one?

A brake specialist is someone who determine common brake problems, repairing and replacing brakes, and performing routine brake maintenance. I believe that every brake dealer does have one on site to help with any problems customers need.


What are the advantages of disc brakes over other types of brakes?

Disc brakes offer better stopping power, improved performance in wet conditions, and require less maintenance compared to other types of brakes like drum brakes.
