The following describes the process of replacing front brake pads for the car Toyota Corolla. The first thing we need to loosen the caliper, using the key "to 12" Then you should make an untwisting the caliper bracket, with the pads, using the key "to 14". And then make measurements of the thickness of the disk, it should not exceed 8 mm. After which the caliper hang the wire to the spring, the purification of spray cleaner for brake use, then coated with a protective compound against corrosion. Next, you must remove the rails, put grease on them and after these manipulations immediately reinsert it. Compares the old with the new pads. After that you should perform cleaning staples of dirt and should be covered with a special compound must also perform the purification, after which the high-temperature grease to lubricate the bearings. Next set the pads in place, tightening the caliper bracket using the moment 47 Nm, and the slide - 27 Nm. After you install the wheel on the car, fasten it with glue moment 103 Nm.

Consider the most common in the lives of motorists, the lucky winner-VAZ, brake system failure. The first item put - the lack of adequate response handbrake when handling them is he simply "does not hold." Here to understand the reason is not difficult, it is necessary to tighten parking brake cables, which are one for each wheel and they go under the bottom of the vehicle parking brake on rear wheels. The second, which may become an obstacle in the movement - squeaking brakes. The most probable reasons may be - installed poor quality brake pads, and the only way to resolve - replace. Hit a pad of foreign bodies or outside of the liquid, in most cases, self-liquidating over the 5-10 kilometers fault. Further, more serious trouble - car skidding when braking. To begin with, check the pressure in all tires and visually try to determine the correct angle setting the alignment. Under the brake pads do not fall, oily liquids, and whether any objects? None. Then get ready for a serious interference in the system of car. Here, the options set on the strain brake tube to jam the piston brake cylinder. Hits the steering wheel - forward in a groove discs. Drives have reached the boundary sizes? What do you know. From you required no small effort to push the brake pedal? Hence, the vacuum booster to exhaust their resources. Replacement is required. Go ahead. Eliminating all defects, you notice that one wheel slows down. We try to resolve on its own. First, check the parking brake position. Often it helps. If the cause is not here, then either a) podklinivaet brake cylinder, then you can try it develop, getting to its essence, and several times completely "is down and squeeze it (will help the brake pedal and mount. B) at the same time take a look and return spring rear brake pads perhaps it is better to replace. Can you see this phenomenon and to all wheels simultaneously. It is better to start with a check for idling brake pedal, if not, then adjust, it should be about 4 inches. But it may be worse and more expensive - jammed piston master cylinder. Only aggregate replacement will help to resolve the situation. More less common situation - it's too long braking distance. Check shock absorbers, if they ran down a 20% inhibitory way you are guaranteed. Scorcher? Hence, to overheat the brakes, stop and let them cool down otherwise the consequences can be sad. Possible and airing system. Let's pump the brakes. Finally, the time change brake pads. Remember the "operating a car with a faulty brake system - is forbidden!" Great club of Korean cars. All important information about Korean cars. Test drives and reviews, information on repair and maintenance.

Now there are many ways to give your car a unique, recognizable look. Quite a number of special workshops dealing with the tuning of various complexity and different direction. But as a rule, services such services be expensive, and sometimes there is no need to radically change the exterior of the car, and there is a goal just to make it different in the traffic, or emphasize one or another of his dignity. In such cases, often costing pasting different body films are sold in specialty stores. Of the many types of goods offered, you can choose stickers of various themes and artistic execution. There will be words or pictures - a matter of taste car owner. Typically, demand picture, emphasizing the character of the owner, as well as supporting a variety of sports memorabilia. But is it worth to consult specialists in this case? Can say with confidence that the process of laminating film car you can learn on their own, a little sorting out the technology and a minimum of effort to carry out these works do not require special tools. Everything you need to cook - it's a knife, scissors, squeegee (plastic and felt), spray, filled with detergent diluted with water (1: 10), an industrial dryer (which is industrial) and the label itself. The easiest way to use one label, which is sold in a set of conveyor belts and a squeegee, but in the case of pasting of copyright products, will have to buy them separately. Consider the process of gluing. To work better together. Clean surface to be processed degreasing solution and calculate the position of labels on the surface, putting the overall and intermediate marks which need to be guided, pasting the image. Smoothing out the film on a flat surface, remove the vinyl layer with the basics. It should be remembered that the adhesive coating is very strong, so you need to immediately process it from the dispenser. This will avoid the bonding adhesive surface with awkward movements. While a partner keeps the sticker in expanded form, processed portion surface of the car to be coated image. Then superimposed image and the center is rolled with a roller. Should be careful not to crease and left bubbles. Film, thus, necessary to heat the dryer, but without much effort, since there is a risk to deform the image. After graduating from papering the entire surface must be dried. At the final stage will once again rolled a felt squeegee the entire image, eliminating wrinkles and bubbles. If you can not correct the defect so that you can pierce the swelling with a needle and expel moisture or air, then dried again. Small pockets to pay more attention should not be - they will disappear. Preferably during the day does not go by car, giving the maximum label stick to the surface, after which it bears re-examination of images and another treatment squeegee.

Two ways of cleaning nozzle in the home during prolonged operation of the machine, it is necessary to conduct maintenance, which also includes the maintenance of the engine. Cleaning nozzles should be performed every 40,000 miles. run. In addition, if the sudden pressing the gas pedal you feel the dips, or a car jerks and bad going without heating, so too must be cleaned injectors. Many drivers know firsthand that clean the fuel injectors are not as too difficult. Cleaning nozzles can produce so-called "industrial process", which involves the use of ultrasound. But such treatment can only be made in the workshop, and their work is not fully restored. Cleaning nozzles industrial method only improves the dispersity (reduces the size of the drop in fuel atomization), increases their productivity and leads to more of the same petrol consumption among all nozzles in the engine, and restores the torch spray. However, this procedure costs money. Therefore, we can try to clean the injectors themselves. For this you need carburetor cleaner in a spray cleaner, injector, as well as spare ring on the nozzle (which, of course, may not be needed, but will save you from unnecessary trips to the market). Method number 1 is first necessary to goutweed barrel with two nozzles, remove the clamps from the bottom and remove the bracket with the wires from the injectors. On the bar with nozzles need to unscrew four screws and carefully pull off with its nozzles. After that, each nozzle should be pulled out of the queue, but it should be done carefully so as not to damage the nozzle. All shot nozzles must be placed in a container of washing while they are there, clear the spray nozzles. Typically, nozzles around the nozzles are covered by coke, which resembles tar, of course he is removed it is very difficult, but it must be done. When the injector is cleaned of coke to be blunt with a special needle gently clean the surface around the nozzles, formed in the process of cleaning the dirt blow with spray. So, outside of the nozzle cleaned, and now you're ready to wash them inside. This will require a power supply, designed for 12.3 volts, and a foot pump, pressure gauge. With the pump hose should be removed end of the hose to pour cleaner, then put the hose nozzle. The pump should be inflated to 6 atmospheres, and the nozzle to submit three volts (for the first time may need to give one at a time of about 9 volts to injector clicked). Voltage should be sent in portions, and the pressure pump to pump periodically. When all the jets prokachany so in reverse order returning to their seats. Method number 2 The second method is more sophisticated, there will only need a spray to clean the carburetor, which respectively poured into the pump hose. To clean the nozzles from fouling, clean cloth to lightly moisten the spray, and rub her nozzle. From spray nagar softened and gradually cleared.

No matter how easy it is not thought the hardest part about it - is to think of the future design of the bumper. You can use regular notebook, you can use Photoshop, but can and 3D Max. A rough sketch, you can do. Before you do this job, type of people, it will be easier to work with, and work will go very quickly. Very convenient to use the pad on the bumper of fiberglass. You will have a very long time to remove the bumper, and then it needs to be laundered. In this process of dismantling, you clean the bumper from dirt and dust. Then you install the bumper at the same angle, in which he was standing on your machine. Height from the ground, measure, since then have reduced the ground clearance of about 5.10 inches. If you have a broken bumper, you can not rely on the line - it will not help you - do everything in the visual eye. It is best to cover the bumper of any waterproof varnish, it was less than dirt. Then the contours of a future filled with foam bumper. It is best to pour it slowly and slowly, otherwise it just will not dry out and will not be suitable for cutting in 3-5 days. Buy a good lather to bumper stronger and stronger powers. And buy it more, because it could not miss, usually takes 3 big bottle, and sometimes all four. In the manufacture of such pads are best reinforced with wire, foam or strips of steel bolted to the bumper. So we get is "half" of the bumper. Three days later, the foam is dried up, we mark up the drawings on it and cut it according to our scheme. It is best to mark and cut the patterns, since the error would be great - the bumper will look unnatural. Foam should not unstick fiberglass. Once we cut it, we gradually begin to hide (if the foam is flat, there will be less consumption of putty) and then unstick a dense piece of paper. Why are we doing this? In order that the work was neat and pleasant. When everything was plastered with glass (it is good because it stretches), it must permeate the epoxy. Prepare portions of no more than 300 grams, otherwise it quickly hardens. After 24 hours, the resin has reached its maximum strength. In this case, you should not be used putty or plaster - crap a lot of mistakes! Can be diluted such epoxy solvent, for better penetration, but not more than five percent of the volume of resin. In the last layer of epoxy can be thinned with a filler such as aluminum powder - the surface will be much smoother. At any pasting try to lay the fabric flat. Need to hide the orbital grinder with a grain of not more than eighty. The first layer of putty do only with glass. Otherwise he would crack up very small pieces. In the end we advise you to carefully check the location of possible bending the bumper. There can crack plaster, and there is only one way - to glue fiberglass. If the bumper of ABS plastic, prokleivaem mandatory. Prior to this filler should be diluted with white spirit, then simply apply with a brush or sponge. So you get rid of many irregularities. Then remove any dust from the filler, primed layer on the bumper by about 2-3 times, and finally walk matirovochnoy sponge or small cloth.

The main problem in operating a used car - jamming of the guide supports. Sometimes it comes to state that the slide had to buy a new one. Many servismeny usually just say that we should change the caliper. Actually, you can greatly extend the life of your brakes on the car. It's enough when changing brake pads check the status of the guides.
