OEM Mazda Brake Pads
All You Need to Know About Brake Pads
Every time you step on the pedal of your Mazda MX-5 Miata, the brake pads are what slow your car safely and smoothly. These components press against the rotors to create the friction that brings your car to a stop. Over time, heat and pressure wear them down, requiring periodic replacement for safety and performance.
How to Know When It’s Time to Replace Brake Pads
Signs of worn brake pads include squealing, grinding, or reduced stopping power. If your Miata takes longer to stop or the pedal feels soft, it’s time for inspection. When replacing pads, consider checking nearby parts such as control arms to ensure proper suspension balance and braking precision.
Brake Pad Care Tips
- Inspect pads every 10,000 miles or during tire rotations.
- Choose OEM pads for dependable stopping performance.
- Replace pads in pairs for balanced braking.
- Clean rotors to avoid uneven wear patterns.
- Listen for squealing as an early warning sign.
