The Electric Brakes in the BMW 318i Es For Sale Assure Safe Drives With Several Additional Features


The electromechanical parking brake (EPB) is found as an ‘electronic handbrake’ in an increasing number of modern cars subject to Increase comfort by offering numerous additional features. the EPB (but not necessary) uses an electric motor and a threaded shaft directly on the brake pads of the rear axle. While, in the BMW, the control cables, which in turn operate the Duo Servo drum brake, are operated by an electromechanical adjustment unit. Hence, a buyer should check the discussed aspects before pay the BMW 318i es for sale. The electromechanical parking brake performs the following functions: Parking brake, Dynamic emergency braking function, Assistant to adaptive departure and checks brake pad wear.

Parking Brake

With the vehicle off and the parking brake activated, the system automatically adjusts the tightening force necessary to prevent the vehicle from rolling away unintentionally. If the vehicle stops on terrain with a drop of more than 30%, the indicator instrument sends a signal. When the brake discs cool down during parking, the control unit automatically releases the brake. This happens because of an active simulation model in the control unit, which transmits the current temperature of the brake discs.

Dynamic Emergency Braking Function

This function is activated by operating the switch. In this case, the function of the switch is similar to a normal handbrake lever. As long as the switch is operated the vehicle is braked; as soon as the switch is released, the braking action is interrupted. The maximum deceleration needs to note here. Braking with the parking brake is only performed at speeds below the specific rate. If the speed is greater, braking is performed by the ESP system which distributes the braking pressure on all four-wheel brakes. At the same time, with the accelerator pedal pressed, the engine torque is reduced and the speed regulator, if inserted, is switched off. To prevent incorrect use (activation by the passenger), the emergency braking function is deactivated when gas/fuel is returned.

Assistant To Adaptive Start

This function allows you to tackle the climbs gently, without backing up with the vehicle. To take advantage of this device's function in the best way, the control unit needs other information. In this regard, the information on the gear engaged, the position of the accelerator pedal, the drive torque and the inclination sensor integrated with the control unit are taken into consideration via the specific part. The parking brake is released taking this information into account. The driver cannot deactivate this function that is the key factor to heed when you decided to buy the used vehicle after pay the BMW 318i es price.

Check Brake Pad Wear

The pad thickness is checked after every but specific distance. For this reason, the vehicle must be in the stop condition, with the parking brake released and the panel turned off. The control unit moves the pad from the end of travel position (zero position) to the brake disk. Based on the value measured by the Hall transducer, the control unit calculates the distance traveled with the brake pads and therefore the thickness. Brake pad wear control can be more accurate on vehicles where the parking brake is rarely used compared to vehicles where it is used regularly.
