How Often Do Your Audi A5 Sportback Brakes Need Service

It’s best to get a brake check before your Audi A5 Sportback shows signs of brake troubles. That's one reason we offer complimentary brake checks so that we can help you stay one step ahead of serious problems. You can ask for a free brake check at any time. Schedule one on its own or request a brake check during a regular service, like a battery replacement. If you've been putting off regular car care, though, keep the following brake symptoms in mind.

Brake problems include unusual noises, a vibrating pedal or steering wheel, a burning smell near your tires, a dashboard brake light that’s powered on, or the feeling that something is "off." You know your Audi A5 Sportback like the back of your hand. And you don't have to wait for something to go wrong. Stay ahead of problems with a free brake check. In general, manufacturers like Audi advise that at a minimum, front and rear brakes are removed and serviced at least once every 12,000 miles or 12 months. That also includes checking the e-brake. Brake service and/or repair should be performed as necessary. Want to keep your brakes ready for anything? Stop at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for a quick inspection. All of our 1,700+ locations offer free brake checks seven days a week. Our technicians will inspect your 2021 Audi A5 Sportback brakes, brake fluid level, and more! Preventative brake care can help keep you safe on the road.

Brake Pad Replacement for Your Audi A5 Sportback

How often do 2021 Audi A5 Sportback brake pads need to be replaced? It depends on you and your driving style. In general, brake pads last from 30,000 to 40,000 miles. Factors like frequent highway driving and smooth braking can help your brake pads last longer. If you often haul heavy loads or ride your brakes, your brake pads may wear out sooner. Your brake pad replacement timeline also depends on the type of brake pads you have installed on your A5 Sportback. Some brake pad materials last longer than others. Luckily, Firestone Complete Auto Care offers Audi A5 Sportback brake pad replacements, coupons on brake services, and a limited Lifetime Parts Warranty on brake pads. We do brake checks and brake pad replacements every day, and for your A5 Sportback, we’ll only use parts that meet or surpass Audi’s standards.

Get Your Audi A5 Sportback Brakes Fixed

You might have a strong and reliable engine in your Audi  A5 Sportback. One that's ready to get you to 200,000 miles and beyond. But if you can’t brake, it might as well be scrap metal. If you’re experiencing squeaky brakes or a loss of braking power, don’t wait! Safe driving is difficult when your brakes are anything but their best. What's more, waiting for things to figure themselves out can result in more damage to your brakes and your wallet. For instance, rotors may start to warp when you drive on worn brake pads, and this metal-to-metal friction shortens the life of otherwise healthy brake components. We can help you steer clear of further brake damage. Get your 2021 Audi A5 Sportback brakes fixed at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Our brake repair services include pad/shoe replacement, rotor/drum resurfacing, brake fluid exchange, and brake caliper and wheel cylinder installation.

Audi A5 Sportback Brakes Questions

  • Why does my A5 Sportback shake when I brake? Faulty brake calipers, worn brake pads or rotors, loose or worn suspension parts, and warped rotors can cause your A5 Sportback to shake during braking. If you’re experiencing odd brake behavior, schedule a free brake inspection at a nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • What is the total number of brake pads on my A5 Sportback? It’s common for vehicles to have four brake pads per axle — two on each front wheel and two on each back wheel. Since the front wheels tend to put in more work when bringing your A5 Sportback to a stop, the front brake pads usually wear out sooner than the rear ones.
  • What is the average lifespan of A5 Sportback brake pads? You can usually get around 30,000 to 40,000 miles out of your brake pads, but how and where you drive your A5 Sportback can affect this. Hauling large loads or riding your brakes can shorten their lifespan, while smoothly braking and mostly sticking to highways can help your brake pads last longer.
  • Does brake fluid leak when the car is off? Because your A5 Sportback brake system is a closed hydraulic system, it should not leak brake fluid. However, if components in your brake system have worn out or been damaged, it might cause brake fluid to leak.
  • What auto shop near me can fix my A5 Sportback brakes? Firestone Complete Auto Care inspects and repairs A5 Sportback brakes near you. Schedule an appointment for a free brake inspection and stop by soon. A Firestone Direct mobile brake mechanic may even be able to take care of your service at your home or office!
