gmc canyon brake problems gurus get in here.


Recommended Posts

Ok so started a few month back..probably 8 or so. Replaced front rear brakes and bled until I had all clean fluid..replaced rear seals etc on my drum brakes too. I had kindve a mushy pedal befor and hoped to fix it. At firstfelt good..then after a week it started getting mushy. Now it just ridiculous..I can stop but the first 75% of pedal barely does shit. Feels like there is air in the system. Pulled brakes to inspect yesterday..drums are almost worn completely..front discs almost no wear. I bled the lines again hoping there was air and went through two big bottles..no luck. Felt exactly the same. So I dont know what to do and just stopped driving it untirl I have some money friday to take it to a reputable shop. Any advice or ideas?

Are you 100% sure you got all the air out? How did you bleed them?

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

put in reverse and keep tapping the brakes until resistance builds than try it again

Does the truck feel like it's stopping mostly with the rear brakes? Rear brakes not adjusted correctly. After rereading almost sure.

Regardless the fronts usually do almost all the stopping.

When i adjust mine before putting the drum on, i can bearly turn the drum by hand.

Master cylinder. Replaced my brakes two years ago. Started out great, them mush. Readjusted and bled several times. Same problem. Finally replaces master cylinder. Now brakes are like a new truck.
