    OEM shims

    Yes, I removed the caliper to change rotors like I mentioned....... Where do you apply the anti squeak to the shims? all sides for both inner and outer shim and to the pad? I might just remove the new crap , clean my older shims that came from factory and reinstall them....

    OEM shims

    I finished the front brakes with OEM rotors, pads and shims. When I got the shims I saw that there were solid and slotted shims. When I removed my original OEM pads I only saw solid shims. So I only installed the solid new shims and threw away the slotted ones. Then I was reading that the...

    Dealership transmission drain and fill?

    I would not let the dealer do a flush. It could ruin the tranny. Do the proper drain and filter change. I Told My Customer Not to do This, Now His Car is Destroyed - YouTube If you feel that they might have cheated you (possibility) redo it yourself. Assuring means nothing. That is why I...

    Did I Possibly Damage My 4WD System?

    Actually, when engaging and disengaging the 4LOW, you have to give it some time in neutral, the light should be blinking and then when it is off, shift out. You are ok, do not worry about it.

    DO not torque bolts more than 12-15 NM I am actually surprised that these can strip easily in the frame, as the frame is steel and not aluminum... and do not take it to dealer.. LOL
