Most brake pads will last between 30,000 and 70,000 miles. However, this depends on a variety of factors ranging from your personal driving style to the type of brakes and rotors you buy. Rotors can last almost 3 times longer than brake pads.

What is a “coil-over-oil” unit? This all-in-one system consists of a coiled spring and a shock absorber. Many are highly adjustable: The spring plate can be set to make the spring looser or stiffer, and the damping valve can be adjusted to control shock absorption.

The double wishbone suspension system, also called a double A-arm system, is a common system. It has two wishbone arms that connect the chassis to the knuckle on the wheel. The shock absorber and coil spring are mounted to the wishbone to create suspension.

It’s important to remember that not every issue with your brake system is going to be a catastrophic problem that will make you drain your savings account. Often, the issue is no more complex than changing the brake pads or the brake fluid.

Independent studies in Europe indicate many cars on the road have suspension problems. In Britain, researchers found that one out of every four cars has at least one worn shock absorber, and in Belgium researchers discovered up to 25% of cars have worn shocks.

While the Flintstones may have been able to successfully stop their cars by slamming their feet to the road, that shouldn't be how you have to stop your car. If you feel like you have to break through the floorboards to stop, it is time to have your brakes checked and repaired if they need it.

If you know or suspect you have a problem with your suspension, and you are in an accident where that was a factor, your insurance company may deny you coverage. Anytime you do not think something is right with the suspension, have it checked out.

Occasionally, a mechanic may use the phrase "black death" when talking about your car's A/C system. This happens when the lubricant breaks down, then a residue from the compressor builds up in the condenser which can't be flushed out. Fortunately, an A/C expert can replace your condenser.

In addition to repairs, A/C experts also do inspections to make sure everything's working and there's no signs of problematic deterioration. If you're planning a road trip, this is an especially good idea to do before you head out.

Bigger caliper pistons do offer more clamping pressure, but they don’t necessarily make your brakes perform better. If the pistons are too large, they can cause an imbalance between your front and rear braking and also cause excessive pedal traveling.

It may seem like adding more refrigerant will make your car's A/C system cool better, but this isn't actually the case. Your A/C is built to have a specific amount of refrigerant that gives a specific amount of pressure, and an A/C expert can make sure you get the right amount.

It’s important to remember that issues like dust in your brake system will usually work themselves out while you’re driving. If that screeching noise you heard when you hit the brakes on the way to work is still present when you’re almost home, it’s probably best to bring your car in for inspection.
