I recently purchased a BMW 8 Series and it has carbon ceramic brakes. I've heard they require special maintenance but I'm not sure exactly what to do. Can you provide some tips on how to properly care for these brakes?
ReplyHi John! Congratulations on your new BMW 8 Series. The carbon ceramic brakes on this car are high-performance brakes that require a bit more attention and care than regular brakes. In order to maintain them, make sure to gently warm them up on your daily drive before hitting the highways. This will help prolong the life of the brake pads and discs. Also, be sure to avoid excessive braking and make use of engine braking by downshifting when coming to a stop. As for cleaning, make sure to only use brake-specific cleaners and avoid harsh chemicals that can damage the ceramic material. Lastly, check the brake fluid levels regularly and bleed the brakes every two years to ensure optimal performance. Hope this helps!
