OEM Jaguar Brakes

Your Jaguar car or SUV features one of two braking systems, if not both. One is a disc brake system, with the second being a uses drum brake system. Both have master brake cylinders, pistons, brake hoses, and brake lines. In each, your pressing the brake pedal sends brake fluid from the master brake cylinder through the lines and hoses.

The Differences Between the Two Brake Systems

What's unique about each system is the parts at the other end of the lines. In a disc brake system, the fluid forces brake calipers to clamp brake-pads onto brake rotors and generate friction.

With a drum brake system, the fluid compels brake shoes to fasten to brake drums to create that resistance. That's what causes your wheels to slow and eventually come to a stop.

In time, though, your brakes will wear down. That's not safe.

How to Spot Bad Brakes

The good news is that it's easy to tell when your brakes are starting to fail. Signs include:

• Your dashboard warning light comes on
• You hear grinding, squealing, or squeaking noises when you brake
• It takes longer for your vehicle to stop
• Your Jaguar shudders when you brake
• Your brake pedal feels unusually soft or squishy
