| I have a 2002 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 with the 4.8L V8. It has 70K miles on it and runs great. Lately I have been experiencing a stall feeling from a complete stop to acceleration. Once I get going its fine, no problems with acceleration while driving. It only happens when I am at a complete stop and then accelerate to proceed. I thought it could be my fuel injectors so I got a cleaning additive and yet it still does it. I have very very little knowledge about the mechanical side of vehicles. Could this problem be from the fuel filter or could my fuel injectors be clogged for some reason. | |
I have a 1998 CK 1500 Z71. I have severe pulsing on the front end as I apply brakes - moderate, heavy weight, or above 30. I can really feel the brake pedal modulate. I had it to the Chevy dealer last month (I have 70K miles). He said front end is fine - replaced pads and did minor turn of discs. It has gotten Much worse - shake and shimmy time. This is second brake job in last 3 years. Is dealer off base and poor job or other ideas on cause?

I have a 2000 Silverado that always goes into air-conditioning mode when using the recirculate function even when the recirculating button is only button selected. Not a big deal but if anyone knows of a fix I would appreciate hearing of it.

I have a 2004 Silverado with 20K miles. When going about 25 mph and hitting a bump in the road, I hear a clicking noise (metal on metal contact). However, when I compress the brakes, the noise goes away. The dealership has been no help at all. Anyone know what this is? Thanks

Replying to: stellgar (Jul 13, 2006 8:00 pm) set to cold. If you slide it to hot it will be hot air coming out of the vents. The AC comp. should only kick in if the fan is on (but I should recheck my operation just in case). Otherwise air will always blow out of the vents if truck is moving. With these GM HVAC systems you can never really shut the air flow off. Remember the old GM "astro ventilation" from the late 60s early 70s? Always fresh air flowing thru the vehicle.

Replying to: geo9 (Jul 14, 2006 5:09 am) The reason this seams odd to me is because there are times when I find myself in a lot of dust or just bad air (black diesel fumes in front) and in my delta I just switch to recirculating and wait it out. No air-conditioned cold air involved unless I choose it. Any Way thanks for the help. |
