Market Harborough is served by the A4304 road, which travels west to the M1 motorway, and the A6, which links to Leicester to the north and Rothwell to the south. The town often hosts a classic car show during the summer, attracting thousands of people. It also has strong public transport links. Market Harborough train station is on the Midland Main Line (London St Pancras is 70 minutes away), and the two leading bus providers are Stagecoach and Centrebus.
Market Harborough is in a rural area where you're likely to encounter uneven road surfaces and sharp turns, putting strain on your tyres and suspension. Regularly inspecting these components and following our tyre maintenance advice will help prevent any problems from developing. When driving through the countryside near Market Harborough, keep an eye out for animals and livestock on the road to avoid braking suddenly, and be aware of other road users since there may be unmarked blind bends. Country roads sometimes flood during heavy rainfall, so check the forecast and take it slow through patches of water to avoid aquaplaning.
Brake discs spin with your car's wheels, while brake pads push on the discs to slow the vehicle. Due to the friction involved, these components wear down over time.
Typically, brake pads last between 25,000 to 65,000 miles, while discs usually last more than 50,000 miles. Learn more about how brakes work here.
When your brake pads need changing, you might notice heavy vibrating, a screeching sound, or your car may pull to the side. On the other hand, when your discs need replacing, symptoms may include a grinding sound, reduced performance, and a less responsive brake pedal. This guide covers five brake problems you shouldn't ignore.
The cost of brake pads and discs replacement depends on the type of vehicle. Booking a mobile brake fitting is sometimes cheaper than taking your car to a garage, and it's often more convenient. If you're wondering, "where can I get my brakes changed?", you're in the right place. We can help you find a car brake centre near you.
