Suzuki Swift brake issue

[mzahid]

Try to get brake oil of "Sekan" brand, better to avoid "Guard".

Is it important to bleed brake lineswhile changing oil?

I have issue when press brake swift come to halt ,I have Japanese model
any one assist or know any good workshop in Karachi -Johar

[baqis2001]

I have same problem ,did you get solution

@baqis2001
following solutions worked for me
1. replace brake pads with genuine brake pad. don't go for local or so called Japanese/ Thailand. As local brake pads are too much hard and don't have soft layer on it. Genuine brake pads will cost you exactly 5920/rs.and its worth it.
2. [Caution] try it on your own risk
Suzuki certified mechanic somehow clogged the brake vacuum line by inserting small piece of pipe in main vacuum pipe to decrease the vacuum pressure in line.

its been a week now and car brake is working smoothly.

Thanks Dear Could you advice contact details for that mechanic please
and where to buy These Genuine brake pads .Regards

That is good to hear! I stand with you on this one. Brakes are our lifeline, shouldn't trust bogus parts with our safety for a few thousand rupees. Plus they last longer too. I had installed genuine ones in my alto 2 years back and till this day they are working great. The local crappy ones would lose their performance after 6 months.

I got my front pads changed from Mini Motors exactly a year ago and since 3 days now I'm hearing the shreaking sound everytime I brake ... moreover ... everytime I let go of the brake pedal, a little shreak sound comes from the brake too ...sounds exactly like when machines haven't been oiled in a long time ...

My question is that is it too early to change the front pads ?
How long are they supposed to last?
Are suzuki ones okay or should I get from somewhere else?

I'm taking my car in tomorrow to Cantt Motors for a second opinion but still ...what do you guys suggest?

[alex99]

can anyone please suggest me any break specialist of suzuki swift in Lahore?
i am having trouble with the brakes, they are sponge like when i brake and almost touching the floor before i feel braking kicking in unless i pump the pedal first, i have had work carried out but all with no results, replaced the master cylinder bled the full system 4 times, and replaced 2 rear wheel cylinders, is there anything else i could get done to resolve this problem im experiencing.

Metallic disc having grooves on surface may give similar issues?
Polishing them lightly may improve suddenness of brakes?
Mine improved little bit with polishing out grooves

AoA Sir I'm also facing the same issue in my Suzuki Swift dlx 2010.I had changed the brake oil,Master Cylinder but the brake issue remains same ,there is no oil leakage from any brake pipe,the brake pads are Ok,After pumping the brake pedal 3 to 4 times the brake works normally..
This problem occurs after driving about 50 to 60kms and mostly on bumpy roads
If anyone has knowledge about this problem then plz guide me.

Your city?

i think it could be an issue with air in the brake oil

[ha929387]

Islamabad
I had flushed the brake oil but the issue is not resolved
A Mechanic said to replace the ABS unit bcz Swift has the ABS fault,
And when he took a test drive of my car ABS unit was working perfectly..

[ha929387]

This problem occurs once or sometime twice in a month ,but its scary bcz 4 days ago, I was travelling on a main road suddenly the brake pedal goes down and I stopped the car with the help of handbrake and after that incident my brake is working perfectly now..

[margallar]

it is not properly bled

[ha929387]

So what should I do now?
Someone suggested me to bleed the brake oil from ABS unit
