Question 1

What information do I need to share to order brakes?

Accepted Answer

The minimum is your Make, Model, Year and the VIN / Chassis Number of your car (17 characters, found on the windshield base, driver-side door jamb or in the RC book). We do not dispatch any brake part without first verifying the chassis number against the catalogue, so the part that leaves our warehouse is the correct one for your car. A clear WhatsApp photo of the worn pad, disc edge and caliper, plus the OE part number if you have it, helps us cross-check even faster. The only case where a return is not accepted is if the chassis / engine number itself was given incorrectly — please double-check it from your RC book before confirming.

Question 2

Which brake brand is best for my car?

Accepted Answer

It depends on your car and how you drive. For Indian/Korean daily drivers — Bosch, TRW, Bendix, Ferodo are good OE-grade choices. For German cars (Mercedes, BMW, Audi, VW) — ATE, Textar, Brembo, Jurid. For Toyota/Honda/Lexus — Akebono. For sport upgrades — EBC Yellowstuff, Brembo Sport pads with slotted discs. WhatsApp us your car details for a tailored recommendation.

Question 3

Do you stock Brembo, EBC and ATE in Bangalore?

Accepted Answer

Fast-moving Brembo, EBC, ATE, Bosch, TRW, Ferodo and Bendix SKUs for popular cars are stocked in our Bangalore warehouses. Confirm before 4 PM (Mon–Sat) for same-day delivery in 2–4 hours within Bangalore. SKUs not in local stock are sourced from outstation warehouses (1–7 working days, courier-dependent).

Question 4

How much does a brake job cost?

Accepted Answer

Indicative ranges only — exact price depends on your VIN. Indian/Korean hatchback or sedan: front pads ₹1,500–₹4,000 + front discs ₹3,000–₹7,000 per pair. German sedans: front pads ₹4,000–₹12,000 + discs ₹7,000–₹22,000 per pair. Premium options (Brembo, ATE Ceramic) sit at the top of the range. Carbon-ceramic (PCCB / AMG Carbon Ceramic / M Carbon Ceramic) is on indent and significantly higher.

Question 5

Do you supply brakes for performance, sports and super cars?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we supply OE-grade and upgrade brakes for Porsche (911, Cayenne, Macan, Panamera, Taycan), BMW M (M2, M3, M4, M5, X5M/X6M), Mercedes-AMG (C 63, E 63, G 63, GT), Audi RS / R8, Nissan GT-R, Lamborghini, Ferrari, McLaren and similar. See our /performance-brakes-bangalore page or share your VIN on WhatsApp.

Question 6

Are these original parts or replicas?

Accepted Answer

Only genuine parts, sourced from authorised distributors of each brand. Each box carries the official part number; many brands also include a security label or QR for verification.

Question 7

Do you ship brakes outside Bangalore?

Accepted Answer

Yes — across Karnataka and PAN-India through Blue Dart, DTDC, Professional Couriers, DHL and India Post. Outstation orders take 1–7 working days depending on courier and source warehouse, and may be delayed on courier public holidays.

Question 8

What is the difference between ceramic, semi-metallic and organic brake pads?

Accepted Answer

Ceramic pads use ceramic fibres with small amounts of metal — they run quietly, produce very little dust and are kind to alloy wheels, which is why they are popular on premium cars. Semi-metallic pads (NAO/low-met) use steel/iron fibres and bite harder when cold, but produce more dust and a little more noise. Organic / NAO pads are made from non-metallic fibres bonded with resin — softest pedal feel and quietest, but wear faster under heavy use. The right choice depends on your car, driving style and wheel finish.

Question 9

What is a single-compound vs multi-compound (multi-layer) brake pad?

Accepted Answer

A single-compound pad uses one friction material from the back-plate to the contact face. A multi-compound pad has an underlayer (between the back-plate and the friction material) that improves heat handling, reduces noise and protects the back-plate — common on European OE pads from ATE, Textar, Brembo and others. For high-performance use, brands like EBC and Brembo also offer pads with different compounds front vs rear, or different compounds for street vs track.

Question 10

Are carbon-ceramic (CCM / PCCB) brake discs available?

Accepted Answer

Yes — for cars originally fitted with carbon-ceramic discs (Porsche PCCB, Mercedes-AMG Carbon Ceramic, BMW M Carbon Ceramic, Audi RS Ceramic, Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren), we can source genuine OE replacement discs and matching pads on indent. Carbon-ceramic discs are very expensive and have specific bedding-in and pad-pairing requirements — share your VIN and we will quote the exact OE part numbers.

Question 11

What is the difference between drilled, slotted and plain brake discs?

Accepted Answer

Plain (smooth) discs are the OE choice for most cars — quietest, best pad life, lowest cost. Slotted discs have machined grooves that sweep gas, dust and water off the pad face — better wet bite and consistent feel under hard use, common on sport cars. Drilled discs add cross-drilled holes for cooling and looks but can be prone to micro-cracks under track abuse — best as a premium street upgrade. Drilled-and-slotted combines both.

Question 12

Which DOT brake fluid should I use — DOT 3, DOT 4 or DOT 5.1?

Accepted Answer

Use what your owner's manual specifies. Most modern cars use DOT 4; many German performance cars and ABS/ESP systems specify DOT 4 LV or DOT 5.1 (higher boiling point). Never mix DOT 5 (silicone) with DOT 3/4/5.1 (glycol). Brake fluid is hygroscopic — replace every 2 years or 40,000 km, whichever is earlier.
