Q:just changed my brakes and roters

as the brakes wear down it creats a space in the master cylinder that takes in air. U have 2 get the air out. its also a good idea 2 change ur brake fluid every 3 years.

Q:I am a newbie when it comes to knowing anything about cars. When regular breaks are applied, is it being applied to all wheels, front, or back?Same question for the emergency brake (the one you pull).How do these braking systems work?

hard situation. lookup with a search engine. this could actually help!

Q:could someone set me straight on something ? i have a 97 buick lesabre with 4 wheel ABS brakes ! when stopping in the snow i get a slight pulsation on the brake pedal, is that normal ? this is the first car i ever owned with ABS brakes ! i had the braking system all checked out and no ABS light is staying on so i am assuming the ABS brakes are doing its job ! i have good tires all the way around on my car so i don,t think it,s the tires ! it only does it in the snow ! could someone explain to me how ABS braking system works ? thanks guys !

I have a 2002 and when I bought the car the factory keyless entry remote was not with the car. The dealer told me he had it disarmed and wouldn t be a problem. Now the red light from the factory security is flashing and my radio and amp won t work. How do I reset the alarm and disarm it so this doesn t happen again. The stereo and amp are the Bose factory.

Q:well inside the car, in the classtheres a square shape that says ASB next to a gas picture. what does it mean when it turns orange?plus theres another square shape that says brake. what does it mean when THAT turns red?gt;

ABS is anti-lock braking system, keeps you from locking tires up. With it and the brake symbol both on, I would guess that you have a problem in the braking system that is also working against the ABS computer. This car is in serious need of a mechanic and should not be driven until checked and repaired.

Q:I have a 1998 Taurus, I wanted to change the brake pads, could someone tell me how to change them.

If you haven't been trained to repair brake systems, don't attempt it. The repair is easy to do, but it's also easy to mess up. Something as simple as a small twist on a hydraulic hose can leave your disc brakes non-functional. A return spring in the wrong place can leave your drum brakes non-functional. Installing the leading shoe in the trailing position can do the same thing, and unless you've done it before that's an easy mistake to make. A do-it-yourself brake job is a good way to get yourself killed if you don't know what you're doing. But like I said, it's an easy procedure - if you have a friend who knows how (preferably ASE certified in brake systems) get them to teach you. But don't try to puzzle it out yourself from instructions you read online. It's dangerous for you and anyone who rides with you.

Q:Or is the braking syst linked together? My bike went down on the right side and severed my brake line just below the reservoir which is located under the seat. I need to know if I will loose all braking capabilities or just my rear braking.

either way squease hand brake if it works your ok and really just replace brake line not that hard better than riding without brake most bikes ive been on has front master an drear master on eby foot other on handle bar

Q:I’m currently doing some research so I hope you guys can really help me out here.Mercedes Benz has a two system (i think) for their braking lights, one is that they it will be ON (as what we normally see) when normal braking is applied (slowing down or stopping) and two (which is their newest system) is that they will FLASH (I think for the 3rd brake light) when emergency braking is applied. How do they do that? Do they work with the speed sensors or pressure applied to the brake pedal or what? How is it done?

In case the driver heavily pushes the brake pedal, the Electronic Stability Program (ESP) automatically activates the Adaptive Brake Light system. As a result, the brake lights are now flashing at a frequency of 3 Hz instead of keeping the same intensity as long as the driver presses the pedal. This makes the car easier noticeable and informs the following drivers of a potential hazard ahead. Once the driver releases the brake pedal, the ESP automatically turns off the function and the flash lights work just as normal.

Q:I know that they can withstand much more heat than normal cast iron discs but if they can withstand more heat, won‘t that make the brakes fade easier? What‘s so good about it if it can withstand more heat?Is the never fading characteristic of carbon-ceramic brakes all because of the properties of that material?Do they have stronger stopping power or are they just popular because of that never fading characteristic?Also, What is the difference between carbon-ceramic and silicon carbide?

overheated brakes can make the brake fluid gets overheated, and when the fluid gets overheated(boiled) it will produce air bubbles in the braking system which will cause braking performance loss even total loss (personal experience), and most of the carbon ceramics brake systems uses DOT5/DOT5.1 brake fluids as it can withstand more heat (higher boiling points) as it can withstand more heat means it can withstand more friction which will produce better stopping power carbon ceramic is made of carbon and ceramic composites and silicon carbide made of silicon and carbon composites, and about the properties of each materials, I'm not sure which one is harder nor which one would stand the heat more

Q:A quick lube joint was supposed to check all fluids and top off on a friend‘s car. They somehow put power steering fluid in the master cylinder. Now the brakes are spongy and a repair shop wants over 3000$ to replace everything. Would bleeding the system work along with replacing the hoses?

Q:I would like to know if anyone can identify the block that the brake lines hooks onto that is mounted by the coil spring housing. the structure has some lines coming out of it. one line to master cylinder, one line to each of the two calipers. 1993 ford ranger two wheel drive. Can anyone identify this part, and if so, where would I be able to find a replacement. It is necessary, for my breaks are leaking around this area.

It depends on the person. I know that it took about a week before I started feeling better after starting an iron supplement.
