Hello everyone,

My name is Mark im from SD Cali. I recently bought a 99 q45 and im really loving this car. I would also like to go the VIP route with this, but im a noob when it comes to working on cars and im hoping anyone here can help if anything :bigthumb:

BTW where can i get some good brakes, because everytime i brake it squeeks pretty loud..assuming its the brakes.

Inspect your brakes.
You probably need to replace your brake pads.

Here she is...all stock ha!
Sorry it took a while.. So I got my front brakes changed and no more squeeks!
BUT there are times where it shakes? (usually when i come To a stop) I've searched and many different things can cause that to happen..hmmm.

Really nice looking car.

Do you feel a pulsing in the brake pedal along with the shaking? Did you get the rotors changed too?

No pulsing in the brake pedal, the car just shakes side to side..seems like its dying or something.
I just got the front rotors resurfaced.
Thanks
