One thing I've noticed is that many drivers pay attention to engine performance or tyre condition but often forget about their braking system until something feels wrong.
I've started making it a habit to check the condition of my brake pads during regular maintenance instead of waiting for warning signs. It gives me more confidence on the road and can help avoid unnecessary repair costs later.
What about everyone else here? Do you replace brake pads on a schedule or only when you notice noise, vibration, or reduced braking performance? I'd be interested to hear what maintenance routine has worked best for you.

SAF-Holland has launched BrakeSight, a brake monitoring system for Haldex air disc brakes that provides continuous, real-time visibility into wear at the wheel end. The company said the system targets fleets seeking more predictable brake service intervals and streamlined repair planning.
SAF-Holland said BrakeSight helps fleets schedule brake service at the optimal moment, extend rotor life, avoid unnecessary repairs and reduce overall maintenance costs.
How BrakeSight Brake Monitoring Works
BrakeSight is an optional feature for the Haldex ModulT air disc brake. As the adjustment mechanism rotates to compensate for pad and rotor wear, the system monitors this movement and translates it into a percentage of remaining pad and rotor life at each wheel end.
The sensor connects to a frame-mounted electronic control unit (ECU), which converts the signal and outputs real-time data via CAN. Designed for both tractor and trailer air disc brakes, BrakeSight is J1939 compliant and compatible with all telematics platforms. SAF-Holland works with telematics providers selected by the fleet and offers open integration without exclusive partnerships.
Built for Real-World Fleet Conditions
SAF-Holland said BrakeSight combines durability with ease of use. Features include:
Continuous measurement of brake pad wear; Ultrasonically welded sensor housing for long-term durability; IP6K9K sealing for harsh road and wash-down environments; Sensor warranty of 3 years or 350,000 miles, matching ABS coverage; Operating temperature range from -40 C to 125 C. Because all ModulT air disc brake calipers include the sensor mounting feature as standard, OEMs and fleets can add BrakeSight at any stage without replacing the caliper. This supports flexibility throughout the vehicle life cycle.
By providing real-time insight into brake wear, the system helps fleets create more accurate maintenance schedules, reduce unplanned downtime and protect brake components. The company positioned this as a way to lower total cost of ownership and improve uptime.

The 2006 Honda Pilot transmission is a five-speed automatic, and it is one of the most commonly searched Honda transmission replacements in the used parts market. Honda's five-speed automatic from this era has a well-documented history of premature failure, particularly the third-gear clutch and torque converter, with many owners experiencing transmission failure between 100,000 and 150,000 miles under normal driving conditions.
If your 2006 Honda Pilot transmission is slipping, delayed in engagement, or failing to hold gears under load, replacement is typically more cost-effective and durable than internal rebuilding at this mileage point. When sourcing a replacement, match the exact unit to your Pilot's VIN-encoded configuration. The 4WD variant uses a different unit than the 2WD. Look for under 80,000 documented miles, shift validation testing, and 36-month warranty coverage from a reputable supplier like Turbo Auto Parts.
