Most common problems:

Brake fluid leaks

Air in the hydraulic brake lines can cause the brake pedal to feel less firm and responsive.

Brake pads and rotors wear

Over time, brake pads and rotors can wear down, requiring replacement to maintain effective braking.

Cooling system problems

V-shaped engines can have cooling issues like a failing water pump, clogged radiator, or leaking hoses, leading to overheating.

Intake manifold gasket failure

The L35 engine might experience intake manifold gasket failure, causing coolant leaks and engine performance issues.

Fuel pump failure

The fuel pump in the 2000 Chevrolet Astro Van can fail over time, leading to start-up issues or engine stalling.
