Tesla · Brake Pad Replacement
Pads and discs replaced in a couple of hours, at your home or office. Priced per Tesla model, not per brand.
Brake Pad Replacement on a Tesla is the same job it is on anything else right up until it is not, and the difference is always in the parts and the tolerances rather than the procedure.
A high squeal is the wear indicator doing exactly what it was designed to do — you have a few hundred kilometres. A metallic grinding noise means the pad backing is on the disc and the disc is now also a purchase. A judder felt through the pedal is disc thickness variation, not pad wear at all, and new pads will not fix it.
Heavy vehicles, sustained high speeds and the specific pattern of hard braking into congestion put more energy through the pads here than average. Heat also cooks the grease out of calliper slide pins, and a seized pin wears one pad to nothing while the other stays thick — which is why we check pins on every job rather than only on request.
Tesla is a American make, and heat management is handled by the car, but cabin and cooling loops still benefit from inspection, and tyres wear faster than owners expect from the instant torque and the weight. For a brake pad replacement specifically that means we price the parts to the model rather than the badge, and we check the items that go alongside it on this range instead of quoting a flat figure and finding out later.
The vehicle database lists 6 Tesla models, and parts, labour time and price all move between them. Pick yours from the list below for the detail that applies to your car rather than to the range.
Typically every 30,000 to 50,000 km, but it depends entirely on how you drive. We measure the remaining material rather than going by mileage.
Yes. Pads, discs and fluid are all mobile jobs. Most cars take about 90 minutes for one axle in your own parking space.
Only if they are below the minimum thickness stamped on the hub, scored, or showing thickness variation. We measure and show you the number.
