If the vehicle 'pulls' to the left or right it usually means one of the brake calipers isn't working correctly. It usually pulls to the side that is working better. So pulling to the right means you have a problem with your Left side brake calliper.
Does the smoke stink? Yes? The smoking could be the brake pads rubbing on the brake disc. The brake caliper piston might be stuck so it isn't letting the pad move away from disc.
You will need the brakes and calipers stripped and cleaned to find out why they are causing problems. A good mechanic will have all the specialist tool that might be needed for this job.
Rear Disc Brakes Pads Removal & Installation L4-2.2L (Vin F) & V6-3.0L (Vin R)To Remove: WARNING Ensure that vehicle is securely supported before lifting. To help avoid personal injury when a vehicle is not on a hoist provide additional support for the vehicle on the opposite end from where components are being removed. Ensure that the lift does not contact fuel or brake lines.
Before servicing the vehicle refer to the precautions at the beginning of this section
Loosen the lug nuts on the rear wheel and tire assemblies but do not remove the lug nuts
Raise and support the vehicle
Remove the rear wheel and tire assemblies
Drive out the brake pad retaining pins from outside-to-inside then remove the pins and retaining spring
Remove the brake pads
Inspect the following:
Brake pad retaining pins for deterioration or damage; replace as needed
Brake pad retaining spring for deterioration or damage; replace as needed
Brake caliper piston seal for leakage or damage; overhaul the caliper as needed
To Install: NOTE: Never replace brake pads on one side of axle only. Left and right side brake pads must be replaced only as axle sets.
Install the new brake pads onto the caliper
Apply a small amount of silicone grease to the retaining pins
NOTE: Check to ensure that the brake pads move freely in the guide.
Install the brake pad retaining spring then drive the brake pad retaining pins in from inside outward
NOTE:Before installing the wheel and tire assemblies remove rust or corrosion from wheel mounting surfaces and brake rotors. Failure to do so can cause wheel bolts to loosen in service.
Install the wheel and tire assemblies
Lower the vehicle to the ground
Torque the lug nuts as follows:
First Pass: Torque to 46 lb-ft. (63 Nm)
Second Pass: Torque to 92 lb-ft. (125 Nm)
CAUTION If this operation is not carried out brakes will not operate properly during initial brake applications.
Prior to operating the vehicle depress the brake a few times until the brake pads are seated against the rotor
The spark plug firing order is ( 1 - 4 - 2 - 5 - 3 - 6 )
The distributor rotor turns CLOCKWISE ( 1 - 4 - 2 - 5 - 3 - 6 )
The marked # 1 position on the distributor cap faces towards the firewall and slightly towards the passenger side
The engine cylinders / spark plugs are numbered : passenger side of engine , front to rear , 1 , 2 , 3 and drivers side of engine , front to rear , 4 , 5 , 6
you shouldnt have to bleed anything when just doing brakes,unless you opened the bleeders and this did not have to be done, if this is what was done then bleeding is needed,close all bleeders, have someone in car, pump pedal 3 times and hold down open bleeder tell them to keep preasure on pedal as it goes down then close bleeder and then tell them to pump again and hold do this a few times on each side starting at the right rear wheel then to left rear then right front then left front always keep an eye on fluid level in master cylinder always keep it full, dont let it empty, bleed all wheels,
Somewhere along the line you are getting ripped off.Unless you are racing around Daytona the figures are wrong.Do you tow a huge load every day or really give it to the truck.No?
30,000 might sound ok so your replacement is wrong.
Change shops.Whoever is working on the truck is wrong.
Brakes are designed to last with standard use about 60000 kms(35000mls) and that is on the front.Rears are diff.
If you get work done on the car from the same person,be there.Make them show you the brake pad thickness,the disc thickness and how much it was at the last service.I mean look at the brakes as it is being done,Don't take their word.To many ripoffs around.Hope this helps
its a distributorless ignition system so looking at engine left/passenger side is 1--2--3- drivers/right side is 4--5--6 the firing order is 1-4-2-5-3-6
If they are disks it will be a sticky caliper piston. (You can buy 'repair' kits online) If it's running on drums, it'll probably be the cylinder. One, or the other. But also make sure that there aren't any obstructions, on the handbrake cable. Good luck with that ;) Don't forget to rate, thanks;)
