What is the problem with the brakes?

I own a Maruti 800. Its done about 37000 kms. The brakes are not that great. I%26#039;m not at all cofident especially when 4 people are sitting and i%26#039;m going at speeds more than 80. I%26#039;ve taken it to many mechanics and they all say that its fine. I%26#039;ve to put my hand brakes to the last notch. And I find some black coloured oil deposits on the front right wheel of my car.





What is the cost of a new set of brake pads and shoes?

You describe a leaking brake cylinder. The oil then gets on the brake linings and reduces the friction during braking.. Friction is braking so in essence you have little or no braking on that wheel. Also depending on the leak you would not be able to build good hydraulic pressure to the other brakes if you have one leaking.





You need to get those brakes checked and repaired !!!!!!





I am not familuar with your type of car, but it can%26#039;t be all that exspensive.
Reply:You have a leak in the front brake. Take it to the shop and they will be able to fix it. Since it is leaking the brake fluid is lubricating the brake shoes and they are not grabbing, thats why your brakes arent working so good. Either the caliper, if you have disc, or brake seals are leaking in the drum.

Reply:The oil deposits may be from a split CV boot on your right front wheel drive axle. If the car doesn%26#039;t stop like it did when you bought it, besides having the brakes checked as you did for wear, it%26#039;s possible that the rear brakes aren%26#039;t doing their share of the braking because the hydraulic pressure regulator to the rear brakes isn%26#039;t working right. I would have a knowledgeable technician check the rear brake line pressures.
Reply:It%26#039;s most likely hydraulic fluide not oil, and if thats the cas then your brakes are leeking wich will cose lost of pressure to the pistons pushing the brake caliber. In another case it can also be oil leeking from your lubricant hose or your engine has a small leek from the headers. I recomend you bring in your car to a certified technician in the brand of your car.
