    Hello Folks, So I'm working on the problem I mentioned a while back with my radiator hose popping off. While taking off the lower radiator hose, I noticed this crack looking thing in my thermostat housing. Before firing the parts gun, I wanted to ask "Is this a cracked thermostat housing? If...

    Back of engine, bottom, passenger side, below steering pump and alternator. So I know it’s not the intake manifold gaskets, because I just did them and it had no effect. This leak looks exactly like it did before I did that job. I caved in and bought a combustion gas test kit, and it did turn...

    Hello Folks, I've got a 2012 Impala LT. Sometimes, when I look at the temp needle, I will see that it's a hair above the halfway point before coming back down. Could this be indicative of a problem going on? Picture attached. I'm not sure if this is normal and something I've never noticed...

    Hello Folks, While looking at some videos on changing coolant in an Impala or any car in general, I see people doing things to get the air out of the system. But when I look at my engine bay, I don't see any of the caps or ports they use. How do I bleed the air out of my 2012 Impala LT. The...

    Bought the car at 53k miles last year. I changed out the ATF since it was burned out but didn't change the filter. Still doing the regular oil change interval plus new tires. Last week, I did a road trip with my family to Arizona. It's at 56k miles on it. On the way to I-40 from Las Vegas, there...

    Hello, Figured I would ask as I have it apart and waiting on a upper radiator hose from the parts guy.. I have noticed a puddle recently under the passenger front side of the car, literally about where the headlights are straight down on the ground. I checked the water pump area.. and not...

    I have a 2004 base model that blew a head gasket while I was 2.5 hours away from home. I was able to fill the cooling system with water enough to get me home but I did overheat several times in which I stopped the car immediately and burped cooling system/ added more water. After an hour of...

    About to do a coolant flush on my 04, 3800 Series II. Anyone know where the engine coolant drain is located? I’ve heard a couple different things from different sources. Some say it’s the same threaded holes as the knock sensors, some say theres a drain plug above the oil pan, and some say there...
