Hey everyone. New guy here, don't have a silverado, but I'm looking. Right now I have a 2007 Nissan Titan (big tow package). I was riding by a dealership and found this....

Its a 2007 LTZ with Navi (35k miles 4x4). They're asking 34k for it. I think thats pretty high, Realistically what do you think I could drop them down to? Also are the 07's known fo anything bad?? I've heard transmission trouble, but I've only seen one documented instance. Thanks again, I'll know more on Friday when I take my truck in

Wecome to the site. Looks like a nice truck, with the lift and rims and tires it should be worth what they are asking. I have a 08 and havent heard off any tranny problems with them at all. Good luck on the buy. Hope it works out for you.

thats what I thought. If they don't go down to 28-29k I doubt I can get it. thats just a little pricey for me right now. Not to mention it would be my 5th vehicle in a year and a half :thumbs: Anyway, I'll see what I can get out of them, I really like the truck, but the accountant (IE:wife) wouldn't like the idea of having to owe even more per month

Thanks again!!! I started looking at prices and I can get a 2007 Dodge Diesel for about the same price (if not lower), so I'm hoping they will come down A LOT. If it doesn't work out, I'm willing to walk away (which is a good thing). THEN IF they come down the other issue comes up...THE WIFE (insert scary music here) :lol:

Well I went down there and it went pretty well. I got them down to $26,5. They are going to offer me 19k for my Titan. I checked under the hood and it had an AEM brute Force CAI. Can someone tell me what height superlift that is??? I'm assuming 6, but it rubbed pretty good on full turn (tires are 35/12.50/18's). Also, it looks like the shocks in the rear are ranchos, can anyone confirm?? Anyway here are more pics. Does it seem like theres a lot of fluid on the axle shaft near the diff??

The rear diff cover might because it is not the factory one and the gasket might be seeping abit. That is a good cover from what I have read in some 4 wheeler mags. Not sure on your other questions. So you gonna get it then?

      2019+ Brake failure, it's complicated

      By needafix · Posted

      I'm not sure if this should be a new topic, let me know if it's out of place. This my first post. Thanks 85077522 - AC Delco GM Genuine Parts Brake Master Cylinders. Anyone else had to replace this brake master cylinder yet. I didn't do any brake work, it looks like new parts and I've had the truck for about 4k miles, 119k total miles.  When it started to throw codes I did the calibrations with a bidirectional scanner and got the codes to clear but they came back so I did the routine; base bleed, automated bleed and final base bleed. All that with Bosch ES16-32N fluid (please look it up). That seemed to fix it but 100ish miles later it failed again so I ran the same process but with a pressure bleeder this time and got the same results, fixed for 100ish miles. The original fluid looked bad and I thought I got most of it out, it could've been the wrong fluid. The codes; P25A2, C05B0-00, C2A1B. I can get them to clear but not for long. The C05B0 indicates a leak in the front circuit (which is bone dry) so I'm thinking of doing the bleed process on that front again today and I don't know if that's taboo to just do the front but at this point it seems like it's worth the try anyway. The new master cylinder/module unit is supposed to get here today. But now I'm pretty much convinced this install is over my head. I've called several shops and some mobile guys that I know but this thing is like radio active material, scary wise. I did get 2 local shops say they should be able to do it, one says he has the SPS2 programing capability. And with the battery disconnected is there supposed to be pedal resistance, mine is to the floor, then if I pump it I can get some resistance. I had a panic stop prior to this issue which may have contributed from what I read. And on the first attempt to bleed and hydraulic test the scanner listed things to look for and one was any gaps between the pad and rotors which I did notice on the RF corner and I removed the outer pad (where the gap was) cleaned it and the hardware and didn't see a gap after that but will re-check it. I read that if pushing the caliper pistons back then you're supposed to open the bleeder so as to not push fluid backwards into the abs module or it will damage it. If that's true then that's also a possibility from the previous owner having the brakes changed before I got it. I'm using an XTool ip500 scanner. Any suggestions, questions and comments welcome.

      Next Friday will be my 6 week point from my right knee replacement.  The surgeon says it will be fine if I choose to drive after this checkup.  I know I could drive now but best to do as my surgeon (and my wife) tell me.  Richard compared being 62 to 72.  I remember when I was in my early 60's I was experiencing slow but regular decline in my mobility.  Thanks to good medical support,  i continued to fight the speed and spread of this decline. During my 60's I worked on non-surgical methods and just when I turned 70, my orthopedic surgeon recommended joint replacements.  In a little over a year, I had one shoulder and both knees replaced.  This hasn't been a terribly fun experience, but worth the discomfort as my future mobility health trajectory has reversed.  It is a treat to now be watching my mobility. balance and confidence steadily improve!
