Brake shim question.
Looking at this image, the black section with writing on, that is not brake shims are they? Just installed new pads and shoes and completely forgot to check but i remember seeing the black almost like card feeling bit on the back like in this image. Should i have a metal plate behind the pads with grease? Secondly... I still have a clunking sound under braking that clunks as you press the brake and clunks when you release the brake on the rears.

Help Required with AC Compressor
Hello, I own a 2009 Lexus IS250, and I've been experiencing issues with the revs fluctuating and the car stalling when I turn on the AC. My mechanic suggested replacing the AC compressor. Could someone provide me with the original compressor brand and model number since I plan to keep the car and need to purchase one?
RX450 tailgate occationally stops (as if obstructed)

I was thinking it might be a sensor malfunction incorrectly detecting an obstruction but can't figure out shere said sensors are. Any advice on that or further thoughts on the fault would be welcome!

The question is simply, is the switch a push-fit which I can just prise out with a couple of flat blades on either side? many thanks, Jamie
