Miss Kelli always goes above and beyond to get you the answers for your automotive conundrums. After dealing with her just once I always ask for her now to help me. She’s quite knowledgeable and goes the extra mile. Thanks again Kelli

My alternator is on its way out. Pulley is chirping and voltage drops intermittently and more severely as the chirping gets louder. Advanced auto emailed me a Christmas coupon for 20% off a $100 or more online purchase.......perfect timing. Ordered the new alternator, got $47 off, and the new unit came with lifetime warranty. This must be what winning feels like!! Order was ready for pickup within 30 minutes. Super friendly staff. Highly recommend.

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.
