Hi.

Went to Ultra Tune yesterday and they have given me a list of things that needed to be fixed costing around $1000, so i thought I'd knock some of the stuff on the list myself. I've got a couple of questions and would greatly appreciate any help.

1. What type and brand of brake pads should i be looking for. I need them just for normal driving and don't want a lot of dust. I've heard the Bendix Ultimates are harsh on the discs.

While changing the pads i also want to flush the brake fluid. How do i go about doing this properly, and how much brake fluid will i need to buy.

2. What coolant should i use and how much does the falcon take. Also how can i do a full flush of the system so that i can get most of it out. I've read another thread where someone has only been able to get 5L out.


Thanks for all your help.
