THE INS AND OUTS OF CABLE Copper quality is an important factor when it comes to automotive cable, with poor quality cable providing sub-par outcomes for your customers. • Ensure the outer sheath is a UV protected plastic for durability • High strand counts will provide maximum flexibility and conductivity • Oxygen content should be less than 5 parts per million; OEX cable is 99.99% oxygen free
IT’S NOT ALWAYS THE COMPRESSOR’S FAULT Failure of the AC system is not always the fault of the compressor; often time external factors are at play. Before replacing the compressor understand the cause of the compressor failure by looking for the following: • Under charge - Low level of refrigerant • Over charge - High level of refrigerant • Contaminated refrigerant • Poor air flow (blocked condenser or evaporator) • Faulty condenser fans • Inadequate oil lubricant

EVERYTHING YOU NEED FOR THE COMPLETE BRAKING JOB With a range including rotors, pads, drums, shoes, hydraulics, tools and more, NAPA Auto Parts has everything you need to complete your next braking job without delay. We’ve partnered with the brands you trust, including RDA Brakes, Bendix, Kelpro and TRW, to ensure the best outcomes for you and your customers.
ELIMINATING VIBRATION & NOISE Most noise related come backs are due to the pad moving in the caliper; brake pad friction material is not the source of the noise. If a brake pad moves in a caliper it will leave witness marks on the brake pad; this is the area of concern. Address this area and the reason why movement is occurring and the noise will be gone. - Backing plate spring clips help reduce a torsional vibration that creates brake noise - Anti squeal paste will help hold the brake pad stable within the caliper bracket and caliper piston - Ensure glue or paste is cured before road testing to prevent dislodgement and potential brake pad surface contamination - Anti-squeal shim kits can be applied to metal to metal contact points to prevent movement and noise

The number one mistake in fitting brake pads is not cleaning and re-tensioning the spring clips and lubricating with high temp grease as it was done when the vehicle was produced. New brake pads need to be tight in caliper brackets; that is the function of spring clips.
SIMPLE STEPS TO STOPPING BRAKE NOISE 1. Remove pads and identify witness marks on pads that have been slightly moving in caliper. These marks will constantly be the cause of the squeal. 2. Clean all contact points and lubricate with high temp grease. Re-tension spring clips or replace. The pad needs to be tight in the caliper; this will solve 80% of noise related come backs. 3. If applying disc brake quiet or a silicone based product on the pad backing plates, allow product to become tacky in the caliper. Then apply brake 2-3 times in the stationary position and allow to dry. This squeezes glue around the bracket and piston, creating resistance for pad movement when brakes are applied. No movements = no noise 100% of the time
