| My mothers 2006 Impala, with the 3.5L Engine, has only been getting 15 or so MPG, even mainly freeway driving. Has there been any TSB on this or a fix of any kind? I keep watching commercials boasting of 30MPG Highway for the Impala and she's getting half that! Very dissapointing, although otherwise the car is fine. | |

My 2001 Chevy Impala leaks water on the passenger side during rain storms, enough that I can have 1/2 inch of water on the floorboard. This doesn't always happen but often enough to drive me crazy, any TSB's or knowledge about this problem would be greatly appreciated. I just found this website and feel confident I will find the answer to this mystery! Thanks

Replying to: andrac (Oct 26, 2006 5:00 am) 1. See where the water is coming from within the vehicle. i.e. is it dripping from the light bulb by the heater blower motor (this is the most common), or is running down the firewall on the left or right side. 2. If it is dripping from the light bulb under the dash by the blower motor, or it is running down the left side of the firewall, your leak is coming from the deflector seal that holds the HEPA filter. 3. To locate this seal: a.) Remove the one plastic screw cap and two push spreader caps that are located on the black plastic cowl directly under the passenger wiper arm. Pry the two caps up with a screw driver and pull out with pliers. b.) unclip the windshield washer tube from the cowl and move it out of the way. c.) Pull of the rear hood seal until you expose the front of the cowl. d.) Remove the cowl. 4. You should now be looking at a plastic cover with a small air (HEPA) filter under it. a.) The metal case that the filter sets in is called a deflector. b.) Look at the base of it and you will see a seal. c.) You can either remove the deflector and replace the seal, or a wiser solution is to use silicone caulking around the base. 5. Simply reverse these teps to put everything back together. All told, the repair takes 20-30 minutes. |
