Hey Folks,

My son has a 2005 Silverado, 5.3. He keeps needing to add brake fluid. The brakes were changed out a few weeks ago but brake fluid keeps running low, with no leaks. Is this the booster leaking? Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks,

Michael

  196,680 Mile Service 8/23/2026 Balance and rotate tires after removing rocks and a screw that didn't make it past the top tread thickness. 4,888 mile interval. I don't use anything but tape weight and one of them had spit its out coming up 3.25 oz out. Also have one rim with a bit of runout. Potholes I expect. Looking for a replacement then I'll have this one straightened and painted and star a wheel restoration. 😏 Anyway, it spins no worse than any other. Took a perfect balance and drives fine. I'm not getting lazy; just pragmatic. Road trip tomorrow.

  I put my black bear on to see if it pulled up any codes. No DTC found. When the shop checked there was no check engine lights either. I drove the truck around today and nothing popped up light or code wise. However, whatever plug in module the shop used could find codes just like the dealership could. I should of took pictures of the shops tablet to show what they see.

- Is 2027 GMC Yukon Getting a 682-HP Supercharged V8?
  
  By CaptPat51 · Posted 3 hours ago
  
  Would you supercharge the 6.2L on a 2021 GMC Yukon Denali XL with ProCharger?.... 605HP is the stated number without going crazy - it's not the LT4 682HP package, but I'm tempted to install it... This vehicle was ... not... recalled on the engine swap - but I don't really know if that means ...don't do it... or do it;) Maybe i should start a prediction market pool on it in case it blows up;) Any thoughts appreciated - I already OWN the supercharger - stopped the installation when the recall was announced and now it's taking up space in storage until I can solve an electrical issue with the vehicle... 4th GMC suburban-equivalent truck - I like them a lot - when they don't a) discharge their batteries randomly, or b) throw a rod at highway speeds;)
