    Fuel pump suggestions

    Been seeing the signs. Gas gauge would jump from empty to actual ready. Lack of power going up hill and lag during acceleration at times. Also the car was running and then just sputtered and shut off

    Rear driver side break pad wearing to fast

    Just wanted to get an opinion. I was thinking of having a mechanic do it just for this since I don't have my home garage avail for the moment. The mechanic wants to charge 300 in labor to replace both rear pads and hoses and bleed the system is that a reasonable price or does that seem high.

    Rear driver side break pad wearing to fast

    Hey Tony, Even though its a new caliper I still checked the pins and added some lube as for the hose I did not replace. So that might be the issue. Is there a specific hose you guys recommend? Thanks for responding.

    Throttle lag/ resistance 2001 tahoe

    The car does not come with third row seats but it has all the holes for the brackets so all you have to do is lift the carpet up remove the plastic covering the holes and just buy brackets of ebay from a junk tahoe. Super easy to do and even found matching third row seats for the car.
