Hi, any one know when to change drum brake shoe? is there any mileage indicator? Because my car at 38k KM now, using the third pair of front wheel brake pad already, yet rear brake shoe still using from day 1.

I just changed to the third pair brake pad(IMP titanium) 2 weeks ago because I found that I need to step deeper to brake, so I tot the 2nd pair brake pad(rapidstop) is about to change. But in fact, the 2nd pair still has a lot to go, and i'm told I need to service the brake system(which will do at 40KM service).

Is it after brake servicing(during 40k km service, at proton sec13), I need not to step deeper and hand brake also need not to pull higher(few clicks).


anyway show u guys my car sound sample of stock HU & polk audio component set,

The front and rear brakes are not powered by the same brake pump if ur rear are drum brakes. For M/B-line, if u feel that ur handbrake is not that efficient at holding ur car still, then u can go service ur rear drum brakes by disassembling them and then clean it with air gun. The handbrake can be tightened too to ensure maximum grip at lower clicks. The rear brake shoes can last quite long; my personal recommendation is to change them every 60-80k KMs. For H-lines, the ratio is usually 2:1; burn through 2 sets of brake pads in front, then it's time to change the rear ones.

thank for your info bro smile.gif I will ask SA to service rear drum brake and tighten hand brake.
