Rear brake pad replacement
OEM-spec rear brake pads installed.
Rear pads on EVs last surprisingly long — regen does most of the work — but they still need replacement around 50-60,000 km on most Indian EVs. Worn rear pads cause uneven braking, especially in emergency stops where regen is overridden. We use EV-rated semi-metallic pads and inspect the calliper sliding surfaces in the same visit.
What's included
- OEM-equivalent rear pads
- Caliper clean + lube
- Parking brake adjustment
- Fluid top-up
Why this matters
Why owners book this: skipping it risks an avoidable safety incident on a wet road. A ₹1,499 workshop slot today is the cheapest insurance you can buy against that outcome.
How it works
- 1
Visual inspection (pad thickness, disc surface, calliper play).

Calliper removal, pad swap, calliper-pin re-grease.
- 3
Disc surface check.
- 4
Manual bleed if pedal feel is mushy.
- 5
Bedding-in road test.
What to expect
