Im curious in regards to loseing antifreeze.....i have a 99 Z 34 monte with the 3.8 series II....I replaced upper intake at around 100,000 miles...i now have 154,000 on it and now im loseing antifreeze with no apparent leaks, nothing out of the exhaust, or on the floor(garage kept).....I dont smell any under the hood or see any signs of an "open"leak, or in the car..... The idiot light comes on and the resevoir is low....i fill it back up...and a few weeks go by(3 to 4) and its low again....IM STUMPED! literally ! I even pressure tested the system and no leak down what so ever......any help would be greatly appreciated ..Thanks !

Problem: Pulsing/shaking under braking
Cause: Warped rotors.
Solution: Replace with a quality aftermarket rotor and this problem should go away. After going through several sets of OEM rotors, I switched to Centric and haven't warped a set since.
Prevention: avoid getting rotors wet while hot, avoid hard braking and then holding the pads on the rotors

Is an issue I have I'm looking into getting Centric since that's obviously what was suggested, any specific type you suggest? I have an 06 Monte SS the only mods I'm going to have is Thrush muffler and CAI maybe a res delete. I don't usually do hard breaking... on occasion... (Windsor drivers SUCK!)

 

Bump

 

Just get whatever you want and can afford. Centric blank rotors (meaning not drilled and slotted) will work just fine for your car.

 

Thanks Chibi didn't see this post so I made a new thread to can "Delete" the new thread if you want

 

Hey Chibz. Love the write up man. If you don't mind I wanted to add two more, and I think its a common problem on the Monte's of the 6th gen. Driver's side heated seat malfunction and code P1811 max adapt long shift transmission solenoid fault. Thanks again for the information though.

 

Add away, I just need your cause, solution :p
