#2841 of 2998 Strike Delays by hardhawk Sep 24, 2007 (12:41 pm)
I wonder how long the GM strike will delay all the Lamba's on order? I think the UAW is shooting itself in the foot, but time will tell. Sorry for all of you who have them on order. Replies to this message: 62vetteefp (Sep 24, 2007 3:07 pm) hardhawk (Sep 24, 2007 3:25 pm)

Replying to: hardhawk (Sep 24, 2007 12:41 pm) I wonder how long the GM strike will delay all the Lamba's on order?   About day for day. The plants will do a slow startup but should not delay too many units. Replies to this message: hardhawk (Sep 24, 2007 3:25 pm)

#2844 of 2998 Re: squeaking noise from brake pedal in the mornings [62vetteefp] by imidazol97 Sep 24, 2007 (5:14 pm)
Replying to: 62vetteefp (Sep 18, 2007 5:12 pm) I read this and think you're hearing the air vented into the vacuum booster for the power brake. When the pedal is depressed after the motor has been running, you hear a swishing sound. But turn the motor off and repeated push the pedal and the pedal height rises and the intake sound of air going in to help you push the pedal ceases.   But on my newer leSabre there's a slight, soft sound even after the vacuum is all gone. I must be a seal sliding on a rod or something. Tomorrow I'll get upside down and look up to see if I can see what it is. You guys have good hearing if that last sound is the one you're noticing!!!

Replying to: imidazol97 (Sep 24, 2007 5:14 pm) It sounds like Buick is creating their own problems by making the Enclave too quiet. Now you can hear sounds that would normally be obscured by road noises. Replies to this message: zman3 (Sep 28, 2007 5:20 am) 62vetteefp (Sep 28, 2007 5:43 am) beach15 (Sep 28, 2007 4:04 pm)

Replying to: rockfish1 (Sep 28, 2007 5:16 am) That was actually one of my fears before buying. I was afraid every little rattle and squeak was going to be more noticeable. So far it is rock solid. Replies to this message: 62vetteefp (Sep 28, 2007 5:43 am) beach15 (Sep 28, 2007 4:04 pm)

Replying to: zman3 (Sep 28, 2007 5:20 am) Part of Buick's "quiettuning" is engineering out any possible squeaks and rattles. Replies to this message: beach15 (Sep 28, 2007 4:04 pm)

Replying to: 62vetteefp (Sep 28, 2007 5:43 am) Actually, THAT is part of GM design in general, and the Buick Quiet-tuning is to back that up, but also take road, wind, and drivetrain noise to class leading levels.   All the Lambdas are equally as "solid" and noise free, but the Enclave, for instance, has very noticeably less road, wind, and engine noise compared to the already very quiet Acadia and Outlook.

Replying to: bobw3 (Oct 01, 2007 11:10 am) It was leased (3 years, 36,000 miles) and the lease was up in January. I had 35,000 miles on it, so with the 2 months "pull-ahead", it made sense to get rid of it now...but it was a great car.
