Parts for your 2013 Suzuki Splash-Pedal pads

2013 Suzuki Splash pedal-pads — what they do and when to replace them

Pedal-pads are relevant and used on the 2013 Suzuki Splash. Technical sources including the Suzuki electronic parts catalogue (EPC) for Splash/Agila B (2008–2014) list replaceable rubber covers for the brake pedal (and the clutch pedal on manual models), while the accelerator uses an integral textured face on the pedal assembly. Suzuki service literature and the 2013 Splash owner’s manual also call out inspection of pedal rubber for wear, confirming they’re a normal service item on this model.

On a 2013 Splash, the pedal-pads’ job is simple but important: they give a grippy, cushioned surface so shoes don’t slip off the pedals, especially in the wet. The rubber pad also protects the metal pedal plate and helps dampen vibration. Every Splash will have a brake pedal pad, manual models add a clutch pedal pad. The accelerator is typically a one-piece plastic/metal arm with a moulded tread and isn’t a separate rubber pad.

Because they’re just rubber, pedal-pads are consumables. Over time they harden, glaze, crack, or wear smooth, which reduces grip. During routine servicing, it’s smart to check them and replace as needed rather than waiting for a near miss in the rain.

• What to look for: smooth or shiny surfaces, cracks, curled edges, looseness, or metal showing through.
• When to replace: at the first sign of slipping or visible wear, many drivers see replacement anywhere from 60,000–120,000 km depending on use and footwear.
• Cleaning: mild soap and water, then dry thoroughly. Avoid silicone, petroleum products, or dressings that can make them slippery.

Replacement is quick and DIY-friendly. Confirm transmission type (auto: usually one brake pad, manual: brake + clutch), order quality genuine or reputable aftermarket pads matched to the Splash, and test-fit dry. Warm the new pad in hot water to soften it, then push it over the pedal plate, making sure the lip seats fully around the edge. Don’t use lubricants—they can let the pad walk off the pedal later. After fitting, press the pedal with a wet sole to confirm grip, and double-check floor mats can’t ride up and interfere.

Note on the accelerator: if its tread is worn or damaged, the usual remedy is replacing the accelerator pedal assembly, as the face isn’t a separate rubber cover.

Popular questions about 2013 Suzuki Splash pedal-pads

Do all 2013 Splash models have pedal-pads?
Yes. Every Splash has a rubber brake pedal pad. Manual variants also have a rubber clutch pedal pad. The accelerator uses an integrated textured surface rather than a separate rubber cover, so it’s not replaced the same way.

How often should pedal-pads be replaced on a Splash?
There’s no fixed interval. Replace them whenever they’re cracked, hard, shiny, loose, or your shoe slips—many owners end up changing them somewhere between 60,000 and 120,000 km. A quick look at each service is the best approach.

Can a home mechanic replace them?
Absolutely. With the right pads, it’s a 5–10 minute job per pedal. Warm the pad, push it fully over the pedal plate, and check the lip is seated all round. No adhesives or lubricants needed.
