My review is specifically about Vina... So we showed up to advance Auto parts telling them that we needed a battery and they looked up on the system of what battery we needed and the gentleman that installed our battery was asked if our terminals were in good condition he replied yes and so we got our battery installed drove the car home went to go crank it up again and absolutely nothing happened in addition to that when he tighten the terminal on our battery it ripped it. Moments later we called back to advance Auto parts and was told by the same gentleman that the car was operating fine when we left so there was nothing he could do just completely careless to anyone's concern... I come in the next morning to buy a terminal due to him ripping my terminal that was on my battery I came in to buy another one so I came in the store and I was approached by Vina the store manager, she asked me what I was looking for and if I needed any help and I was quite frustrated and really agitated about the situation but yet I looked at her and said yes I'm looking for a terminal and she had asked if that's all that I needed and then I presumed to explain the situation to her as I did she completely understood everything that I said she listened to everything I had to say before giving any input... She was completely thoughtful of me in our situation and actually gave us a terminal and a corrosion kit to show her support and her care for a customer. At the end of the day it was not the fact that she gave us anything for free it was the fact also that the very same day she contacted us via phone and asked us if the terminal worked great again showing her full support to us.. Vina has great leadership and carries great compassion for what she does and who she is... Vina is the ONLY REASON we will remain a customer!!!

This is the only place I know they stock my full synthetic 5W40 Mobile oil for my VW. About 1,000 before the oil change you can predict the oil light coming on. I add 1/2 a quart if I can't get to tte dealer within a day or so.

HOW DO BRAKES WORK?
Expand FAQ item
Brakes work by using friction to turn kinetic energy into heat. There are two designs: drum brakes (older), and disc brakes (newer). Both use hydraulic pressure to move a piston outward. In disc brakes, the piston is located inside a caliper that houses brake pads and fits over the rotor. The friction lining on the pads makes contact with the rotor to slow the vehicle. In drum brakes, the piston moves two curved shoes lined with friction material against the inside of the brake drum.
