My car is making a scraping noise
Posted on 9/10/2020
Your car may be making a scraping noise due to an issue with your brakes. If one of your brake calipers is seized or sticking then it can cause a noise when you're driving. This noise will not go away and will progressively get worse. Your brake caliper can seize due to an excessive amount of moisture in your brake fluid that will damage the internal components of your braking system. Your brake fluid's moisture content should stay below 1% anything more than that and it should be serviced. We typically advise that you have your brake fluid serviced every 12 months. We also do free brake inspections, give us a call and let us take care of you.

They help prevent excess engine wear.
This is why your car isn't warming up properly.
It's an important component.
This requires some testing...
A bit of maintenance can save you.
This is why an oil change is so important
It's not always the seal that's the issue.
A brake inspection can prevent this.
It's more important than you think.
