Braking
THE GENERAL DATA

Intensity of deterioration of overlays brake колодок depends first of all on service conditions and style of driving of the car. Deterioration in the conditions of city movement is especially great and at car operation mainly on short distances with frequent stops or at a strongly pronounced sports management style the car. In these cases insistently it is recommended to spend in addition control check of a condition of overlays brake колодок in the service enterprise a Volkswagen in intervals between planned maintenance service. On cars with gauges of deterioration of overlays brake колодок the control lamp signals about limiting deterioration of overlays of forward brake mechanisms.

At movement on descents of the big extent it is necessary to use brake properties of the engine for what it is necessary to pass to lower transfers in due time. Loading on brake mechanisms thereby decreases. If there is a necessity additional притормаживания with use of working brake system, to apply it follows with intervals, instead of is continuous.

That reduces efficiency of braking

Moisture and salt


The prevention

Under certain conditions movements, for example, at long movement on water, at a strong rain, and also after the car sink, probably some delay of operation of brakes because of moisture presence on brake disks and колодках (and also because of presence of hoarfrost in the winter). It is necessary to dry in due time disks and колодки, putting in action working brake system.

Overheat of brake mechanisms
The prevention

Never "grind" brake overlays, pressing down without need a brake pedal. It conducts to an overheat of brake mechanisms, lengthening of a brake way and the raised deterioration of brakes.

Before movement on long abrupt descent lower speed, be switched to lower transfer {a mechanical transmission) or choose lower step (an automatic transmission). It you use brake qualities of the engine and facilitate work of brakes.

At installation during operation on the car of various spoilers, full-size mudguards, etc. It is necessary to make sure that it will not worsen air intake to forward brake mechanisms, otherwise brake mechanisms will heat up too strongly.


The amplifier of a brake drive (the vacuum amplifier of brakes)
The prevention

The amplifier of a brake drive works with use of the vacuum created only in an operating time of the engine. Therefore never practise car movement by inertia with the switched off engine.
If the amplifier of a brake drive does not function, for example, at towage of the car or at is faulty сти the amplifier, is necessary to press much more strongly a brake pedal to compensate absence of additional effort to the brake drive, the amplifier created at normal work.
