If you own a Porsche, you’ll have firsthand experience with the speed and precision Porsche brakes offer while still providing safety. In order to keep your Porsche brakes in great condition, it’s recommended to maintain routine brake servicing to keep you and those around you safe while out on the road.

Decreased Deceleration

If your brakes are put under too much tension over a prolonged amount of time, this may cause them to overheat and reduce their ability to slow down as quickly as you’d like.

You may notice this issue more if you’re driving down steep terrain and having to use the brakes more often or in cases of heavy traffic. Allowing your brakes time to cool down can help their performance, however if problems continue, it’s best to bring your Porsche in for maintenance.

You Hear Squealing Noises

Squealing sounds can be heard when brakes experience an issue known as stick-slip. This occurs when small vibrations are “microphoned” by the brake rotor which amplifies the sound. Due to functionality, a Porsche is fitted with large pads and rotors. With a more sizable surface area, pressure can differ when brakes are used, broadening the chance for a more audible squealing noise.

If you hear this noise coming from your brakes, bringing in your Porsche to one of our technicians can help you decipher if the noise was caused by damages or if it happened naturally.

Brakes Feel “Spongy” 

Brake fluid helps to signal the movement of your foot to the calipers when you motion to slow down and stop your vehicle. This fluid is under high pressure within the brake lines, so if a line breaks releasing the brake fluid, the pressure within the lines will decrease alongside your ability to slow down your Porsche.

When this occurs, you may feel a “sponginess” when you press down on the brakes. If this happens the safest thing to do is pull over when you find a place to park and check for any leaks.
