Frequently asked questions

Common questions about brake testing, parts and our branches. Can’t find yours? Give us a call.

Brake testing

How long does a brake test take?

About 30 minutes. We recommend booking ahead.

Where is the brake test done?

The test lane is at our Büyükçekmece Brake Test Center. The Istanbul HQ and Ankara branches have no test lane. Büyükçekmece branch

What does the test measure?

Brake force imbalance between wheels on the same axle and braking efficiency; it also reveals problems with drums, discs, pads and brake chambers. Measured on a TÜV-compliant roller test stand, in line with Turkish vehicle inspection rules.

Does the report replace the official inspection?

No. It is a check before the inspection, not a substitute for it — the aim is for your vehicle to arrive ready.
