Parts for your 2019 Suzuki Splash-Brake shoes

Brake shoes for a 2019 Suzuki Splash

Brake shoes are fitted to the 2019-registered Suzuki Splash. Technical sources including the Suzuki Splash/Opel Agila B workshop manuals and common service data (Autodata/Haynes for 2008–2015 Splash/Agila) specify a front disc and rear drum brake layout, which uses brake shoes at the back. The Maruti Suzuki Ritz (the same platform as Splash) service literature likewise calls out rear leading/trailing drum brakes with shoes.

On this Splash, the rear brake shoes sit inside the drum and press outward to slow the car. They handle parking brake duties as well, so even when the fronts do most of the stopping, the rear shoes are still crucial for stable braking and a firm handbrake feel.

As part of regular servicing, the rear shoes should be inspected for lining thickness, glazing, contamination, and even wear. A good rule of thumb is to check them every 10,000–15,000 km or at each service, and expect replacement somewhere between 60,000 and 100,000 km depending on driving style, hills, towing, and city stop-start use. If the linings are down near the service limit (often around 1.5–2.0 mm—check Suzuki’s spec for your exact variant), it’s time to replace. Always do both sides on the axle together.

When replacing the shoes on a Splash, it’s smart to: renew the hold-down springs and hardware kit
