- AEA EdwardsFeb 10, 20205.0Back in January my car started to break down while traveling out of state for my grandfather’s funeral. I ended up stopping in Charleston and learned that my third cylinder was blown. I ended up getting a rental to finish my journey but, it was when I made it back to Charleston that I stopped at advanced auto. There were two employees there that were so kind and understanding. During this time I found out my car was apart of a huge civil suit against GM and that my car was right outside the mileage and time frame to be included. Note I had just bought the car three months prior. The gentlemen in the store helped me find whatever parts I needed, and told me to come back if I needed anything else. One gave me a hug because he knew what problems laid ahead. I just wanted to say thank you again because those kind gestures meant a lot.

The type of battery also has an affect on the price whether it be a lead/acid, calcium, lithium-ion, deep-cycle.
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.
