Since this thread seems to come alive every two years I figured I'd do my part.

 

Just thought it should be pointed out that the poster first several posters are incorrect about the "little rubber tubes" that come along with the pin seals. Those little rubber tubes are the guide pin bushings and slip over the small end of the caliper guide pins. You have to dig the old ones out of the caliper bracket to replace them

Hi I have a 2009 Chevy silverado 1500 hybrid two mode 4x4 I have replaced all of my brakes calipers roders hoses all of them a my brakes master cylinder to so why does my back brakes keep grinding  what can it be

Hi I have a 2009 Chevy Silverado hybrid two mode  1500 4x4 I have replaced all of my brakes and the back brakes keep going bad and grinding  and I do mean I replaced everything  I replaced brake master cylinder (new) calipers on all 4 rotors on all 4 and brake hoses on all 4 can some one please tell me why the back brake keep going out and grinding I only got 3,000 mileson the back of the truck

I always change the brake hoses when changing calipers. A good indicator that your hose has a restriction is that when you crack a bleed screw, no fluid drips out. I recently replaced both front calipers on my 2001 Sierra, new hoses, nice high pedal, like new. AC/Delco remans are $47/each on Amazon, and they send you $30/core when you return them, and they pay the ship. That's $17/each!

Well, you didn't mention the ABS pump and you might have selected the wrong parts and or put them on incorrectly.  The wear indicators go on the inside for example.

    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
