Most common problems:

Brake fluid leaks

Hydraulic brake systems can develop leaks in the brake lines, calipers, or master cylinder, leading to reduced braking performance.

Brake pedal issues

Spongy or soft brake pedal feel is often due to air in the hydraulic lines or worn-out brake pads.

Brake rotor wear

Over time, brake rotors can wear down or become warped, causing vibrations and reduced braking effectiveness.

Engine overheating

V-shaped engines, especially older ones, can suffer from cooling system issues, such as radiator or thermostat failures.

Oil leaks

V8 engines can develop oil leaks from valve cover gaskets, oil pan gaskets, and other seals.

Ignition coil failure

V8 engines may experience ignition coil problems, leading to misfires and rough running.

Fuel injector problems

Older engines like the 1995 V8 may have issues with clogged or malfunctioning fuel injectors, affecting performance and fuel efficiency.

Crankshaft position sensor failure

This sensor is critical for engine timing, and its failure can cause stalling, difficulty starting, or poor performance.

Intake manifold gasket leaks

V8 engines sometimes suffer from intake manifold gasket leaks, leading to coolant or air leaks and poor engine performance.

Exhaust manifold cracks

V8 engines can develop cracks in the exhaust manifold, causing exhaust leaks and potentially affecting engine performance.

Throttle position sensor issues

Problems with the TPS can lead to erratic idling, stalling, and poor acceleration.

Transmission problems

Older GMC Sierra models may experience automatic transmission issues such as slipping, hard shifts, or delayed engagement.
