Well I did my first brake job today, in the end it didn't stop so well, but I tried!
I pre-ordered my parts from Advance. I have done business with this company before and they have never let me down.
When I got here, my parts were ready. I was hoping for a copy on the Hanyes manual but they were out of stock... okay. I still can do this, that's why we got Internet!
So Bob was my man, he say me coming and had my pile ready. Even said I would need brake cleaner, and he wasn't up-selling me... that gross stuff came in handy! He showed me in the book some of the key things to watch for and the headache you got to deal with 4times... he wasn't kidding, I'm surprised I didn't loose an eye during that fiasco! (My car was definitely made in China by an octopus with little hands!)
Bob was great.... he's your man even though he's normally the delivery driver. I gave him a run when I asked for my BF commercial account discount... out of state of course! He did it and was a good chap about it. (I would have drop kicked the computer and the customer if I had to go through that!)
Ample parking... I noticed some things they will do for you on site... like batteries and computer error scanning...
Great place... a must for a DIYer or "I'll buy the parts so I don't get over charged" type.... read more
