My trucks getting pretty crusty/weathered from the lovely north east weather. Is there anything I can grease the sway bar bushings with? I imagine it should really be taken apart as ive never had the hardware changed and the bars pretty rusty. From what ive read, I should'nt grease them with anythin...

I ended up getting the fuel filler neck assy at Keller Chevrolet. It was $133,That part number the website gave me was the right number for the whole assy w/hoses.
PN-15761471

Yeah i've thought of that insurance angle thing. I just could'nt believe living in western new york that i had'nt experienced this before if it was normal,the audible noise etc. . Its pretty much a given that side streets,back roads will have snow covering them,or residual ice that is'nt gonna melt ...

Website just got back to me. Message Text: I need a fuel filler neck. Someone gave me the part number 15124302. I can't find it in the catalog,but it does come up in a part number search. Can you confirm this is a fuel filler neck for a crew cab s-10?Thanks. www.GmPartsDirect.com. We look forward to...

I've felt like my brakes have been responding halfway decent. Recently winter weather has finally hit. When I am on a snow or ice covered road and attempt to stop,my brakes feel as they are locking up. The pedal gets firmer and theres an audible noise. You are basically not going to stop no way no h...

Thanks,Im waiting to hear from customer svc at GMPARTSDIRECT. The description just says pipe,so i wanted to confirm with them before ordering. That part doesnt come up in the adjacent catalog. A dealer said he could order the part for 135, so will see if the website gets back to me.Thanks.

Well that was what i was talking about. The faulty switch was trying to actuate the front axle,and there would be this whirring sound,real loud. That was how I realized there was a problem. My friend knew what it was relatively quick I thought he said thats what it was,maybe something trying to buil...

Is there only one switch in the transfer case? May seem like an odd question,but a friend that works in a transmission shop replaced a switch in my trans case. When mine failed,it would cycle the compressor on. Im trying to make sure that I don't need to replace something different.

wnyred

Well so far, it seems to be stopping better,and a somewhat firmer peddle(closer to what originally was by far). So from what ive gathered,the ehcu got messed up,and all the new parts on the rear were overheated in the break in period. The failure was'nt something a shop easily diagnosed(ehcu). As yo...

wnyred

ok thanks Henry.just trying to eliminate probs due to my ignorance.
I bought ac delco rotors.Green stuff pads for the rear.

wnyred

So doing the standard 2 person bleed method rr.lr.rf.lf. Can someone tell me should i pump up the brakes w/ the vehicle off,then bleed w/ the ignition on? Idk if it matters on this. I replaced a rear bleeder,when changing pads,rotors. I figured I would bleed all four wheels(not sure i have to). At a...

wnyred

I don't know the only visual diff I see is which end the wear indicator is on.

I was just looking for the above info I asked about. I came across an instruction to replace pads. It is'nt telling me what im looking for but is specific to this vehicle. It says something about a retaining spring for the inboard pad. As far as I know there is no retaining spring. its just the the ...

wnyred

yikes,they never come with any.thats why i just do it the way they were......

Anyone out there can tell me where the clip on the end of the pad sits inner and outer on the rear pads? Excuse my glaring ignorance!

At this point Id rather know for sure than assume its right.

wnyred

ok. The rotors were new six months ago,so i guess i could get them turned,depending if its worth the cost vs new ones. I know they saw excessive heat when the calipers were sticking(the beginning of the whole issue). I have sanded them though,tried to. "Make sure the pads are installed in the proper...

wnyred

Keep an open mind. Approach this again from the beginning. Do everything again. Don't be so close minded that it has been done once and is not a problem. Sand the pads and rotors if they are in good condition. If they are marginal or show signs of bluing, replace them with a nice set of slotted rot...

Ok.w/ my problem I am exp that same roll through stops scenario. I only drive on the paved roads since ive had this, 6 mos. so I havent even exp. it in winter/sand/salt conditions.Im still not convinced my issue is'nt abs related. But enough,dont want to hijack this thread!

wnyred

I realize this post is a little old and ongoing. You do know that if you have a bad ehcu its probably not going to come up on a diagnostic scan. Seepage,is about the only way to figure it out from what I am told. That is if you suspect a proportioning kind of prob. Experiences I've learned with my n...

wnyred

I appreciate all of your advice. I have come to the conclusion that there are several problems that have made this situation complex. As for bleeding, I have to trust to an extent that the abs system has been bled w. up to date equip. Going back to the initial problem( which at the time seemed obvio...

wnyred

[quote="roadrunner"]Did you follow the procedure I outlined in the previous posts? I had found all that info about testing out the booster quite some time ago. It seemed ok. To recap. Never had a problem w/ the brakes. Broke a line on rear axle,replaced,bled. OK. Rear brakes would randomly lock up a...

wnyred

So roadrunner how would you ever narrow down a problem to begin with if you don't believe in pinching hoses. At this point,im done randomly replacing things. I would like to eliminate any possibilities. You go on these forums,a lot of info is contradictory. For instance never pushing caliper pistons...

wnyred

I don't know if you ever found what you were looking for,but believe LMC sells all parts of the truck bed.

wnyred

Idk I feel like you are being a bit condescending,Henry j. Thanks roadrunner. I did all the booster test stuff I found online. I did'nt replace it and have never taken it apart. I did have someone awhile ago apply the brakes while i inspected the hoses. I have not attempted the pinching off the line...

wnyred

If you have paid $1400 to have the problem fixed and the shop did not fix it, I think it should be sitting there until they do fix it. This is especially true if it is a safety hazard. You would think. That was to replace the hcu. Thats it. The place calls and says you're all set. I go down there,I...

wnyred

It is frightening to even mess with this to me anymore. Its frightening to take it somewhere. It sounds like its very easy to mess up some of the abs valves etc. If I cant figure out whats up soon Im prob gonna cut my losses and trade it in. Trade in rip off,I never thought I would consider. Believe...

I have considered the rubber brake lines. I was thinking my problem started after replacing rear calipers. Then again,the problem really started when A buddy did rear axle seals. In doing that a brake line broke. He replaced it,we bled it. Felt fine but after that is when the rears started seizing u...

wnyred

Update Still having problems. It got to a point where it seemed to get worse. Finally while a mech. was driving it,a line near the master cylinder broke. Then he noticed it looked like the hydraulic control unit leaking/seeping?idk. Anyway 1400 bucks later w/ a new hydraulic control unit,and brake l...

wnyred

Whats frustrating is apparently no one is following the right procedure. Bleed the abs,bleed the brakes,bleed the abs again. It does'nt sound to difficult to understand. Over and over I take it and hope......and just get the same result.

wnyred

also....the master has been replaced since this issue started,so i would think the dealer bench bled it before hand....(can't really assume anything lol).

wnyred

If you remove the master from the booster. Its not gonna let air in is it? Im thinking I would like to see if adjusting the rod raises the pedal,or if something in there is wiggy.

wnyred

I actually took it back in yesterday. The place said they got some air out of the modulator for the abs. I don't know if they got it all. Pedal is still similar,low. Im gonna move on and look into the brake booster. From what I was reading Im starting to see where maybe that is an issue.

wnyred

I did steve. Actually I thought i was making a smart move by going there and Ive had nothing but problems. I actually stopped there on the way home today to say that I changed the one rusty bracket in the back. He can only recommend they go over the whole brake system and see. My thought is, its bee...

wnyred

yeah i can see where if I have to stop fast,it could be an issue. If i just brake easy,they are working but if you really press they keep going. Maybe they are a bit slow to catch as well,idk. I still seem to think that modulator has air in it. So may try to get a shop to bleed it,just to eliminate ...

wnyred

@Crew K Elite
I did do a look over previous posts. From what I gathered from them if that was bad wouldnt the pedal be hard? It is so strange.

wnyred

I have a problem w/ my brake pedal going very low. I believed it was a bad master cylinder after a series of brake work being done. Ive replace both back calipers,pad,rotors, though there is one side still has an old bracket*didnt come w/new. So initially I took it to a shop they bled the brakes,and...
