Checking the brake system on a diagnostic stand (BMW X5 E53)

Checking the brake system on a diagnostic stand with running drums gives the clearest picture of the condition of the brake mechanisms, and is carried out in accordance with the documentation for the Stand.

Attention! If the vehicle has "AST+T" or "DSC" systems, they must be switched off, while the control indicator on the instrument panel must be lit.

The speed during testing should not exceed 5 km/h.

Before starting the check, it is necessary to dry and warm up the brake discs to operating temperature by performing several braking operations.

The maximum duration of the test should not exceed 3 minutes per axle. If it is necessary to repeat the test, drive 1–1.5 km to ensure sufficient lubrication of the transfer case.
