BACK BRAKES

Justy left dealer where I have my truck serviced. Mine is a 2013 tacama with almost all highway long drive miles. He said I em "need rear brakes cleaned and adjusted" Never heard of cleaning rear brakes. Has anyone else.

 

My 2005 Tundra DC had 111k when I sold it, rear brakes never touched and had plenty of life left too. Typical Dealer screw job. Did they also propose changing your "dirty" air filter for an extra $80?

 

welcome from alabama. where bouts do u live?.... also i have little to no help to offer on u issue, ive never heard of brake cleaning, but i have also heard these are self adjusting brakes.

 

^^^ Pretty much this

 

Yes filters is always- either cabin or air----just changed cabin less than 1000 miles and they said it needed a new one. always a up sell with this dealer..
i live in montgomery alabama

 

Oh well thats a few hours from me but u may wanna check out the alabama threads sometime. There are meets and stuff and general b.s. threads

 

Most of the dirt will fall out by it's self it will get cleaned in all good time when you do the brakes some where around 150,000-250,000 miles so if the brakes last that long with dirt in the drums why worry?.
