- TTTrangAug 5, 20255.0My Audi needed a new battery which needed to be programmed and Larry was a big help. He changed the battery out, programmed it and put everything back together again. He was very pleasant and even changed it out in the rain for me. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would recommend this place!

- JSJames smithNov 14, 20185.0Check engine light came on. I knew where this advance was located. So, I stopped by and they checked my car out super fast! I found out it was nothing major and was able to drive my car home. I didn't purchase anything just because I don't have the ability to repair my own car. But, for those of you able to work on your own car, they are fast, knowledgeable, and seem to be eager to help you out :)

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.
