Eight Great Auto Questions

1. Why do brakes squeal or squeak?
"Brake squeal is the result of a high-pitched vibration of the brake pads."
A Ned Beatty squeal is the result of a redneck who liked his "purty mouth."

"Brake squeal [like Ned Beatty squeal] is the result of the composition of the brake pads being too hard." But if the brake pads were too soft, well, that happens to a lot of cars, really it's no big deal. You'll get his motor running soon.
Finally, the article concludes, "Brake pads come from the factory with anti-rattle clips, pad insulator shims, and sometimes a silicone backing that literally glues the pad to the caliper."
I have no sexual analogy (ha ha, ANALogy), I just understood about 4 words in that sentence.
Doesn't "shims and calipers" sound like an English delicacy?
You gotta have your shims, calipers, full thrust tramperpods that secure the lexicon prawns to the chad and the fallopian tubes.
