When this happens the ANTI LOCK, TRAC OFF and SERVICE VEHILE SOON (not check engine) lights all come on at once, but go off again when the vehicle is restarted. Occasionally the car makes a small groaning noise when braking at very slow speed. I've had the brakes checked several times and they tell me they are fine. I'll take care of the coolant light issue this week coming.īy the way, another odd thing happens sometimes on this same Buick. Tried to give you one, but I have oly 0.1 points thus far. I gather you have to build up some points before you can leave a feedback, I will when I can. Do you think that would be a good course of action? Also I imagine a flush might not get all the residual oil out and the problem could possibly recur anyway. It looks to me like the input is a few inches down on the engine side of the radiator, but I'm going to pick up a manual to get the exact procedure. I thought I would have the coolant flushed somewhere else and then figure how to put a new sensor in myself. I'm sure the second mechanic assumed that it has been flushed also and they had just tried cleaning the sensor and had not replaced it. So now I have a second sensor that I had put in that is gummed up. Granted I suppose it makes no difference, but I think they should have flushed it, or at least discussed the options. Of course this left the low coolant light still on. Now after the fact he tells me he didn't want to have to charge me for flushing it out since it wasn't so bad that it would effect performance. It was flushed prior to the repair when he tried some sealant, but the light came back on within a few weeks, so clearly the oil was still leaking in. Yeah, well I would have thought they would have automatically flushed out the coolant, but it turns out they did not.
