I think I may have just popped my diff. It was new as of last year, when I bought the car it only had a few K on it. Installed hendrix axles last summer too. I went to take of at a light not very hard either, let out the clutch and heard a pop, then nothing but a whirr and grinding noise.
I was...
I lubricated the brake caliper pins yesterday, and topped up the ball joints for good measure while the wheels were off--what a difference! Now I want to hit them all... Anybody have a full list of grease points?
Just did an oil change on the escalade with 5w-30 mobil 1. I was wondering how to lubricate the chassis. According to the owners manual, this should be done every oil change. I do own a grease gun but I dont know how and where to grease on the escalade. I've only grease trailer wheel bearings...
What's everyone using?
Mobil1
KN
Amsoil
Castrol
Ultraguard
Napa

I'm using Amsoil w/ ultraguard filter...Mobil1 grease
Air in tires. Not nitro yet
I'm going to all synthetics including grease so will be doing my own fluids now...
Any idea how many and the location of the grease zerks..I heard there were 11 but have no data/pic to show me where
I have a 93 Allante with a door latch/door grease lock that is broken. I have seen a post that the 97 Lumina has the sam lock but can not confirm it. I need a new part as current part has broken plastic connection posts. PLease advise of sources to go to. Thank you
I read that you are supposed to put silicone grease on the weatherstrips to make them last longer. Is this true and if so what kind and how do you apply it?
Someone please help this new caddy owner....PLEASE!:hmm:
It took three trips to the dealer last time to stop a very noisy low speed brake rattle from the front brakes so I am attempting to just grease them myself as that is what they said they did to finally quell the loud noise. Sounds like a blown or loose shock from the front as it goes over any...
Are there any front end steering parts that have grease fittings that need to be greased occasionally on my 2003 STS? I took off the driver front wheel and I don't see any fittings to grease. I see a few bushings but no fittings..
Am I missing something here?
Can anyone help me out here? I've been told by more than one mechanic that there are no grease fittings on my STS. I understand that there are none in the front but the FSM states that there are two fittings on the rear tie rod ends. My local mechanic and the local Chevy dealer both told me...
Just for curiosity, how many grease nipples on a STS, if any and if there are, where are they? My friend who owns a STS asked me who only own a 95 SDV... I know mine has 4. But there is a 10 year gap and lay-out difference (FF vs FR).
Anyway, thank you!
Did a search, no joy.

Tried to remove some of the bulb sockets to replace the 1157 bulbs, and found that three of them were warped from heat and wouldn't come out! Another was broken where the...

Ok. I can wash the hell out of my car and detail it, but I need some advice. My leather seats are a little dull. What is the best thing to use to bring them back out?
My second question is, my headliner has a few smudge by the visors from dirty hands(previous owner). What can I do to get...
Creaking sound when accelerating??
I need some advice guys. I want to make sure it is just an annoying sound and not something that is going bad. When ever I accelerate, the front end makes some type of creaking sound. At first I thought it was my CV half shalts. I replaced them both and...
Hey guy its me again. My car make noise when it is idling and it happen to be the serpentine belt pulley/tensioner. Is there anyway I can tighten it or do I have to replace it? Also whe I rev the engine to about 800 and higher the noise goes away.
One more question. I changed my...
Over the past couple of days, the tensioner pulley bearing has begun to squeal on cold starts, finally settling down once the engine warms up. I looked on Rock auto, and saw that they have a listing for just the pulley for about $13. I also checked GM Parts direct who only lists the Pulley and...
