  • Are you having deja vu like I did? Here's an update.
    We're starting to see this on 2017-2018 GM vehicles too.

    Subscribed only because of the humor. I am going to get my own chev impala on Sunday. 50th anniversary impala. Hope it will stay with me for a while.

    I love you beyond repair !! My list: Inner tie rods, outer tie rods, sway bar bushing, stabilizer links, rotors, calipers, rack (now leaking), struts, 5 alignments, subframe mounts, driveshafts, new rims, new tires... (still shakes and shimmies) ! - plugs, wires, ignition coil... (still accelerates slower than grandma). The other day: Big popping noise in front... then the sound of a compactor crushing a metal roof...until both wheels locked up while car in middle of road. Whats next ? Output shaft? Output shaft speed sensor locking output shaft ?? or could it be the cv joints locking up the tires... but wait a sec: both tires are locked. So Towed it to the shop - again and haven't heard anything back. Maybe they strapped the car to a tree, hoisted it up and burned it like a witch ? Maybe the disconnected the cv joints and put it in neutral and let it go over a cliff ?? I haven't heard from mechanic yet. Yes: this car makes sure that every paycheck you get is eaten up immediately. The car costs 30K new but after 10 years, it costs a quarter million ?? And why is the steering rack and all the other things placed so it takes a houdini to get them free ?? 2 quick connects for in and out to pump... and 2 bolts to hold it in. Change a steering rack out? 5 minutes !!! But noooooooo-- Broken Jaw and teeth you say? Try massive flesh wounds trying to get the rack out. The car should cost a cheap 120K up front and no service required for 100 years. But Noooooooo

      Mark Paradis You found a Ch..ch..chevy mechanic? Bless you. I thought we were extinct. It'll take him awhile to get back to you. He's gotta tie a couple lifelines and get 3 or 4 spotters before going in. Oh, and a good therapist. (Witch doctor)

    Thank you for doing a follow up video on the topic. I have an 09 CH CH Chevy impala with only 22k miles and I'm having reduced engine power

      You got the deal of a lifetime or good luck if you have a 2009 Chevrolet Impala with 22K miles only.

    OMG!! This is by far the best video I have seen in a while! I'm going to be doing some work on my sh......Chevy Trailblazer pretty soon because my check engine light is back in again after spending close to $500 to have one oxygen sensor replaced. I'm doing the work myself and I'll be giving that tire a kick for sure! Thanks so much for the great laughs; I nearly died though 😉

    I have a 08 Saturn Aura XE and I have had this issue for a while now. No matter what I did the engine power reduced would always come back on after a day or so. I changed relays, sensors, throttle body, and sill did not fix the issue. But now my problems as been solved. If you are getting an error code that says P1634 ignition 1 power circuit low voltage . The issue is the fuse box under the hood. This was my problem.

    Chchchevy isn't the only one. All automobiles are junk now days.
    The names are the only things that are made in America. Everything else is made in China, South Korea, Taiwan, Japan and MMMMEMEMEXICO!
    With lower wages ,lower production standards are to be expected!
    Hey Dave have you had to replace the oil filter housing and gasket yet? Very common also. And hey The PS pump went bad because of the Rack ,not the other way around. The psi deferential in the rack causes the pump to overheat and then it starts making noise.
    Sorry just trying to let others know what causes the failure.
    But I say get a go cart a lot cheaper to repair. Lol
    Thanks for the video Brother, have a great week.

      William Oneal Hey Will. Still no problem with the oil filter housing, but I'm watching it. Cant wait! Gonna need exhaust work soon.

    OH, I thought I was alone . Now I know there are lots of saps just like me trying to live with an impala. Mine has 89,000 babied miles . Driven about 6,000 per year . Not rust . These car should come with a warning , Only sold to Mechanics . It always needs work . G.M. does Stand for Garbage machines . But thanks for the laugh , I needed it . And it has been garage kept.

      I try to look on the bright side. If it wasn't for my chchevy my tools would rust. Remember the song and the commercial? When he said 'like a rock' he was talking about the owner, not the car. We HAVE to be.

  • @vegasbab.y3740

    I think for me was the catalytic converter because after replacing that when my car wouldn’t pass smog it went away. But it only came out once before I haven’t changed it.

  • @rsaint7553
    @rsaint7553 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    60,000 miles low mileage but feels like a guessing game. Would like to phone a friend to help me to find out what’s wrong with it since my mechanic can’t figure it out. Amazon prolly ban me for ordering and returning stuff. Good laugh!😂

  • @boysmom2684
    @boysmom2684 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Been dealing with this crap since last fall with my 2008 g6...replaced MAF, & pedal acceleration sensor. Now throwing me TPS code....ready to get full coverage and torch it. One thing after another with this car 😤😬😬

    • @lifeafterlife8417

      That’s typically due to either low coolant or a bad connection at the battery, ask me how I know

    We have the same problem i replaced the throttle body and throttle position sensor and it still didnt fix it

    • @lifeafterlife8417
      @lifeafterlife8417  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Have it scanned for trouble codes. That will get you pointed in the right direction. Code p2135 is often the throttle position sensor. Lots of other possible causes.

    • @bentrishaleemartin926
      @bentrishaleemartin926 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Check the wires in the harness going to the throttle sensor, they tend to wiggle loose. There was a recall on that pigtail

  • @davidc9286
    @davidc9286 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Found my throttle pedal sensor was only at .98 volts. Should be 5 volts, hoping changing a $36 part does the trick
