Car Makes - June 2006

My dad built a volkswagen beetle "baha" several years ago. It has always run really good. My brother borrowed it last week and while driving it, apparently it started on fire. He had to tow it home. It was suggested to me that because it had a possible crack in the distributer cap, it could have started on fire because of that. Does anyone have any suggestions on whether that could have caused it to catch fire? If not, what do you suppose think could have caused that? It was not a huge flaming fire, just a tiny bit of flames I guess.

I saw it for the first time in Dec. of 2003, so Im guessing the car was a 2004 model. I thought it was called a Mercedes Lorenzo, but that cant be right since there's nothing on the net about it. What car could this be??

I just recently bought a 2003 Mazda 6 with 25,000 mile on it. I notice that there is a slight sqeeke when I break and would like to change the pads now before they wear the rotor. I first thought about going to the shop but the idea of spending $150.00 per axal is appalling (especial when you consider that a set of pads for the front and another for the back only cost a total of $40.00). I also own a 1997 Mazda 626 and have done the front brakes on it a number of times. What I needed to know is is there any difference between changing the brakes on the old one versus the new one. Are there any special tools I need? Are there any free online resources for repair and maintanance? I tried to find a Chiltons or a Haynes at my local auto store but they don't have one for a Mazda 6. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also I plan on doing the brakes today so that I may take a road trip this weekend. Thanks
