    Help! ESC Module 2007 Z06 (Electronic Suspension Module)

    HI there, I dont understand. What are you experiencing that leads you to believe you have to program out the ESC? Remember that the Tech2 will automatically look for the ESC in any diagnostic circuit check. It will say NO COMM because you dont have the module but that is NOT an indication...

    1125 DIC code

    HI there, Lets first look at what was already replaced. What was changed? Is the code constant or is it intermittent::?? My thought is that you might not have to replace any parts at all. Let me know what you have, Paul

    Oil smell after oil change

    HI Tom, Essentially, CHECK YOUR OIL LEVEL FIRST, and then if the problem still occurs after validation of correct oil level, replace an engine seal. But the customer can request a printout and dealership can give it to them. Allthebest, Paul

    HI there, Accel injectors, while very good, still function off the same kind of principle as the OEM. YOU REQUIRE 16.5 ohms resistance at EACH injector with a tolerance of plus or minus 1 ohm. This measurement is on a cold engine. Please measure resistance and we can assist further...

    Help! Crackling Noise in Dash ?

    Hi there, There are no speakers in the dash, which would lead me to believe that maybe your drivers side front speaker assembly in the door may be creating the condition. I would suggest disconnecting the door speaker and reevaluating the condition. Allthebest, Paul

    Help! Crackling Noise in Dash ?

    HI there, I would ask how you make the noise happen? Do you push on part of the dash? Open a door? Leave the key in the ignition and open the door? Allthebest < Paul

    84 Transmission shift prom

    HI there, There is no shift point changes with a new prom. The 4L60 that is in your vehicle is actually ONLY electrically controlled for torque converter lock up. Shift points can only be changed by line pressure at the kick down cable or the governor. Now, that being said, accurate...

    Passenger Side Door Module #9352891

    HI there, Its obvious you have a major communications failure with all Class 2 modules. The problem ends up that WHAT is causing it. If modules lose power and/or ground, it can create a complete communications failure. So, with that in mind, I would be starting by checking all the powers and...

    Oil smell after oil change

    Im sorry, but I have to be the bitch here. #1, in EVERY SINGLE DOCUMENT WITHIN GM, the capacities charts state APPROX FLUID CAPACITIES. If you allow the engine to drain for 10 mins, you will have a different fill capacity than those who let it drain 1/2 hour. In all circumstances, it is a...

    8 speed automatic

    My thought! :rotfl:rotfl:rotfl:rotfl:rotfl:rotfl:rotfl:rotfl:rotfl An 8 speed automatic doesnt do a damned thing for performance, and lets be even MORE frank, its all for CAFE and thats it. When you are talking about .45 seconds shift time between gears or less, lets add that to the 1/4 mile...
