2012 Chevrolet Sonic
Mileage

Service Date
11/4/2024
Services Performed
Inspected and Found – We found the coolant level was slightly low, but after topping off, found no flow through the heater or radiator, indicating a possible issue with the water pump. When we removed the water pump, we did not find an impeller issue, but did find signs of it leaking, and have replaced it due to that issue. With no signs of the water pump causing the lack of flow issue, we believe a stuck-closed thermostat is the next possible cause, and recommend having it replaced. We also found that the radiator is leaking and will also need to be replaced. The customer has declined any further repair at this time, and we have only filled the system with water due to the radiator leak. With only water in the cooling system, there is no freeze protection and recommend flushing with coolant as soon as possible, otherwise engine damage could occur.
WATER PUMP – Remove & Replace – LT,LTZ,1.8L Eng

2006 Chevrolet Silverado
Mileage
287,425
Service Date
9/23/2024
Services Performed
Inspected and Found – We found codes P0101 (MAF Sensor Performance), P0540 (Intake Heater Circuit), P0038 (Turbo Control Position Not Learned), P0405 (EGR), P0674, P0676, and P0678 (Glow Plug Cylinders 4,6, & 8). Codes P0101, P0540, P003A, and P0405 all reset after clearing. Code P003A: All of the circuits and signals test good. Diagnosis leads to replacement of the turbo. This could also cause the smoking and code P0101. The engine temperature fluctuates a lot. The temperature difference across the radiator is too high. We suspect a restricted radiator, but the fluctuation is consistent with what we have seen from aftermarket thermostats. Recommend starting with OE thermostats, but if the problem persists, then it will need a new radiator.
Inspected & Found – The transfer case rear output seal is leaking. All of the other vehicle fluids, belts, and coolant hoses are in good condition at this time. Front and rear brakes are all at about 70% remaining.
