    2010 Silverado new front rotors and pads.

    Reliable water pump brands?

    Once again it’s a cat’s breakfast of varying advice from the Bitog team. :rolleyes: NOS? If anyone believes that no improvement in manufacturing has occurred in the last ten years, hopefully grandpa has water pump stashed in the attic.

    Reliable water pump brands?

    It’s important to realize the advances in Chinese manufacturing in the last ten years. Sorry, but it’s true. A lot of experience on this board dates back many years prior to that. 😷

    Reliable water pump brands?

    I have an AC Delco professional on my Ford Taurus. I installed it 6 years ago and it has 60,000 miles on it. This is a no brainer. A $29 water pump in 2025?

    2010 Silverado new front rotors and pads.

    It’s a strange optical illusion. The hat is actually grey and the paintless crosshatching is the correct look. Another shot almost makes entire rotor look grey, but no, only the hat is painted.

    Japanese coolant; are they all the same?

    For what is worth all the Prestone colors for foreign and domestic coolants contain 2EHA. Fear it you like but it’s all marketing now.

    A shot of my speedo on the Autobahn today

    We get deer jumping out of the woods up here. Even a clear straight away poses a lot of risk at high speed. Darn.
