Produktbeschreibung
Many automotive tasks are best left to qualified and certified professionals when considering a repair on your automobile. However, there are also many tasks that can be tackled by the weekend do-it-yourselfer with a decent level of instruction. While just about any system repair or overhaul on modern cars has become more complex over time, brake diagnosis and repair is still well within reach for the home mechanic with a reasonable set of hand tools. In Brake Repair: How to Diagnose, Fix, or Replace Your Car's Brakes Step by Step, ASE-certified technician and professional instructor Steven Cartwright takes you through the entire process of servicing your car's brakes to like-new condition. Ten informative chapters cover everything you need to know, including brake history, an overview of function, types of brakes, power assist, troubleshooting, electronic controls, such as ABS, and finally, a chapter showing you how to complete an entire brake job with step-by-step color photos. With traditional dealership labor rates hovering around $125 per hour these days, it is easy for a standard four-wheel disc brake job to cost close to $1,000 when all is said and done. With the help of this book, you will be able to competently and confidently complete the task in similar fashion for less than half the cost, paying for this book many times over the very first time you use it.
