  Q: What Are the Key Steps and Inspections for Regular Brake and Brake Booster Maintenance and Diagnostics on Acura Legend?

  A: It is crucial that brake inspections are done at specific times and regular basis as brakes are important in vehicle safety. Potential system problem symptoms could be; the occurrence of a car being pulled to one side while braking, whistling or disc dragging, excessive brake pedal travel, pulsation felt on pedal or loss of fluid from the hydraulic system. Disc Brake Pads incorporate built-in wear indicators that produce high-pitched noise when they get to the stage where replacement becomes urgent hence preventing expensive damage to rotors. Inspect disc brakes by checking pad thickness through caliper inspection holes and replace pads below the specified thickness. If unsure or worried about their condition remove and clean them for a detailed check using friction material gauges. At the same time assess rotor thickness and replace it if it falls below the minimum specification, look for scoring, gouging, or burned spots which necessitate resurfacing if required. Check thoroughly for any damages that have occurred during installation including leaks and sores before attaching wheels onto such vehicles' systems like brake lines and hoses against fitting specifications among others. After removing rear drum brakes, examine lining thicknesses, contamination levels as well as overall conditions. The installation process of shoe return plus hold-down springs and adjusting mechanism must be followed correctly too and wheel cylinder leakage or cracked drums must also be addressed properly. Finally, perform tests on booster for brakes then evaluate parking capability by counting clicks upon pulling up or carrying out a hill test for effectiveness after making necessary adjustments.
