I've noticed that my Vauxhall Vivaro's brakes seem to be squeaking and feel spongy. Is this a common problem with this model and what should I do about it?
ReplyHi Molly, it is actually quite common for Vauxhall Vivaros to have squeaky brakes. This can be caused by a build-up of dust on the brake pads or a lack of lubrication on the brake components. It is always a good idea to have your brakes checked and serviced regularly to keep them working smoothly.
Hey Molly, another thing to look out for with Vauxhall Vivaros is the brake discs becoming warped. This can happen if you frequently drive on steep inclines or carry heavy loads in your vehicle. If you notice a pulsating feeling or hear a grinding noise when applying your brakes, it is likely that your discs need to be replaced.
Hi Molly, sometimes the brake pedal on Vauxhall Vivaros can feel spongy and this could be due to air in the brake lines. This can happen if the brake fluid is low or if there is a leak in the system. I would recommend getting your brake system inspected by a qualified mechanic to ensure your safety on the road.
