Re: Self Adjusters - Long Story Start reading at LONG STORY SHORT if in a hurry

Do you know if a Tesla S80 still has a hydraulic braking system? Has the federal government officially allowed a fully magnetic braking system?

Re: Valve Chatter

Yeah I get all that. I check and adjust when totally cold and the gaps are pretty good, perhaps one one hundredth of an inch too tight so .009 when it is specced at .009 - .011 and ideally should be...

Re: Valve Chatter

Noise is gone or much reduced when cold.

Re: 1999 Accord new brakes, break in time? How?

My understanding is that you need to deposit some new pad material into the metal rotor. To do that you want to get the whole assembly nice and hot and then do some hard braking, and then don't...

Re: Scary SRS issue

Re: erratic alternator
