NUCAP Announces Industry-First 100 Percent Brake Pad Performance Guarantee

Starting May 1, 2013, NUCAP will launch its guarantee on all brands of brake pads using its NRS Retention System. For brake pads experiencing delamination during their useful life, NUCAP will reimburse customers a flat $250 toward the cost of those brake pads and labor.

NUCAP has announced its industry-first 100 percent brake pad performance guarantee on all brake pads manufactured with NUCAP’s NRS technology.

“Brake Pads produced using NUCAP’s NRS technology provide a mechanical bond that eliminates any chance for edge lift, rust jacking or delamination,” said Jayson Keever, vice president of global marketing for NUCAP. “Our extensive research indicates that edge lift is one of the main causes of brake pad failure. Our NRS technology was designed to eliminate this, and we feel so strongly about the benefits of NRS that we’re backing all pads that include it, regardless of the manufacturer.”

Starting May 1, 2013, NUCAP will launch its guarantee on all brands of brake pads using its NRS Retention System. For brake pads experiencing delamination during their useful life, NUCAP will reimburse customers a flat $250 toward the cost of those brake pads and labor. “Brake pads featuring NRS are safer, experience less noise and last longer, and with our 100 percent guarantee, there’s never been a better time to switch to pads with NRS,” said Keever. “We’re certain that less delamination will result in more profitable installers and happier vehicle owners.”

Toyota’s original Land Cruiser was the company’s version of a Jeep that could go anywhere. In its time it was highly rated and collected, which led the Japanese juggernaut to bring back an updated SUV in 2007 called the FJ Cruiser. The retro-styled vehicle was again a go anywhere machine powered by a 4.0L V6 (1GR-FE) used in the Tacoma. The engines are durable and considered relatively robust for the time.

Long-Life Coolants Explained

Different types of coolants cover a range of applications from diesel to domestic, Asian and European vehicles. Each one is formulated to a specific manufacturer’s specifications to keep their engines at an optimal temperature. But, changes to the old one-size-fits-all formula has led to confusion for consumers and even some technicians.

Diagnosing Intelligent Cooling Systems

The majority of cooling systems on the roads react to what is happening inside the combustion chamber. After the engine is stressed, the heat causes the thermostat to open. Increases in temperatures will also cause the cooling fans to come on. The heat carried by the coolant is the trigger for operation of the fans and thermostat.

Modern Cooling System Design: It’s Not About Temperature; It’s About Powertrain

Given the advanced state of internal combustion engine technology, some recent cooling system innovations will actually increase engine torque and fuel economy while reducing exhaust emissions. Let me simplify that idea: new cooling system technology will make engines run better and cleaner. So, let’s get on the same page by reviewing some basics.
