Can anyone recommend an auto repair shop to fix brakes on a BMW 323Ci?

chain tools
S L asked:

I have a 200 BMW 323Ci (coupe). The brake sensor light indicator came on which means I need new pads at least.

BMW dealership always replaces pads AND rotors and quoted $1045(+tax) for my car.

I’m wondering if there is an auto repair shop (i.e. a national chain) that will do brakes on BMWs and doesn’t charge such an outrageous amount?

I don’t have the tools to do it myself.

Places like Meineke, Goodyear & Monro say they’ll do the work but I have to bring it in and have them look at it in person before they’ll give me even a ballpark price.

One local business quoted $800…is that reasonable?

Thanks!

What are the techniques of great songwriters of metal, grunge and the like?

chain tools
Teegan asked:

As in James Hetfield, The guys in Alice in Chains, Kurt Cobain, Dave Grohl, Black Sabbath,
Maynard James Keenan of Tool, Phil Anselmo of Pantera, Zac De la Rocha

In how many cases is it real effort and talent versus mental stimulation from drugs?

Is it possible to create metal without all the drugs and alcohol that many bands evidently use?

Can someone help with my high volume guitar sound problem?

chain tools
Kimmy asked:

I play mostly heavy music, Tool, Deftones, Helmet, Alice in chains etc. When playing with my drummer muted notes are just thundering, but when I want to ring out the volume and “impact” just drop out. It’s loud but loses its “balls” I want the muted lines to not be so overpowering. Some song examples would be Deftones My Own Summer or Tool’s Undertow. I’ve tried rolling the low end on my amp and lowering the volume on my guitar when playing muted lines. I have a late 80’s(?) charvel mopdel 4 with active pickups and a mid-boost circuit. Could this be the problem? Am I driving the preamp too hard with this guitar even when the volume is way down?Would a compressor/limiter help? Thanks
