Brake Repair Advise,[url=http://rogervivieroutlets.webmium.com/][b]roger vivier discount for Discount[/b][/url]
I have to take my wife's car in for new brakes this weekend. I dont have the time or the know-how to do it,[url=http://parajumpersoutletitalia.albirank.net/][b]http://parajumpersoutletitalia.albirank.net/[/b][/url], but it needs to be done. They were squeeking for a while and now,[url=http://discountmerrellshoes.webmium.com/][b]discount merrell barefoot shoes discount merrell shoes online shop[/b][/url], every now and again, you can detect a grinding noise. Anyhow, I've heard that a lot of mechanic shops and brake shops rip you off. Is there anything I should look for or be aware of so I dont get ripped off? About how much do you think it should cost, assuming there are no major problems? I live in Dallas and the car is a 2004 Chevy Cavalier. Thanks for any advice.
I think you would have rotors in the front and drums in the back. If you have been hearing grinding coming from the front for awhile chances are the rotors are shot,[url=http://duveticaoutlet.albirank.net/][b]http://duveticaoutlet.albirank.net/[/b][/url]. They are probably about $30 a piece. The drums probably just need to be replaced and they are about $30 also. Pads for the front will probably cost about $10-$15. I am not sure how much places mark up the prices though. If the noise is just coming from the front I would say do that yourself if possible because it is pretty easy to do without much car know how,[url=http://duveticaukoutlet.halod.com/][b]Duvetica Down Jackets For Men Store[/b][/url]. The back drums are a little tricky,[url=http://woolrichjacket.webmium.com/][b]discount 2013 Woolrich Woolrich Jackets Woolrich® The Original Outdoor[/b][/url]. If you decide to do it yourself and take the rotors off most auto shops will tell you if your rotors can be resurfaced and they will do it for you for about $5 a rotor. You can also just take one of the front wheels off and see if the rotor has grooves in it. If they are deep grooves then they are most likely shot. Hope this helps a little.
Just a though from an old guy, the best brakes and the best battery that you can buy are also the cheapest insurance you can buy.
The low price service chains ( Midas,[url=http://duveticaukoutlet.halod.com/][b]Duvetica Jackets UK[/b][/url], and such) are sometimes cheaper,[url=http://kaufenmonclerjacken.albirank.net/][b]Moncler fabrikverkauf Moncler Herren Jacken Moncler Jacken Outlet Österreich[/b][/url], you are buying cheaper labor. That cheaper labor may be preforming it's very first brake job on your wifes car, well,[url=http://parajumpersonline.webmium.com/][b]PJS Jackets Shop Sale[/b][/url], that's a lot cheaper than a diviorce.
try to find ( by references) a small independent shop that has been around for awhile, yes they will have to charge you more because they pay their help a living wage.
I financial constraints require a very thrifty approach you can do the job yourself with a mimimum of tools and effort. Autozone has some of the best prices and will loan you any specialized tools that are required. Instructions and help are available online and in low cost repair manuals. You did not tell us the milage on the car but usually the rear brakes last well beyond 50,000 miles. Rotors are fairly cheap and new rotors greatly contribute to a nice brake job. I personally have not been able to detect a great difference between standard and top of the line premimum pads, I use the premimum pads on all trucks. Please remember to support the car on blocks or jack stands when it is jacked up. Please also remember that the only stupid question is the question that is not asked, help is available.
i had to do my first brake job at 15 without even a book,[url=http://discountmerrellshoes.webmium.com/][b]http://discountmerrellshoes.webmium.com/[/b][/url].
what i did, was to pull the drums off both sides,[url=http://duveticaukoutlet.halod.com/][b]http://duveticaukoutlet.halod.com/[/b][/url], and then i tore one side apart, and used the other side as a guide. (this is the worst way, but i had no options at the time)
however, i grew up around cars,[url=http://parajumpersonline.webmium.com/][b]2013 PJS Jackets Shop Sale Kodiak Jackets Online PARAJUMPERS[/b][/url], so it was sorta second nature for me.
if you've never worked on a car,[url=http://rogervivieroutlets.webmium.com/][b]Discount Roger Vivier Shoes[/b][/url], then no, brakes are not where you want to start. alternators and water pumps,[url=http://woolrichswedense.gengfl.com/][b]http://woolrichswedense.gengfl.com/[/b][/url], sure, brakes,[url=http://parajumpersonline.webmium.com/][b]Kodiak Jackets Online PARAJUMPERS[/b][/url], probably not.
that said, i'd still list brakes as about a 3 on a scale of 1-10. (1 being changing oil, and 10 being piston/bearing/ring replacement.)
Don't know where some of you guys live, but the labor rate in my area is typically $65-$80 per hour. Some dealers labor rates are in excess of $110 per hour!相关的主题文章:
