2002 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500 2WD

When my truck reaches 70 mph it starts making a flapping noise by the drivers side windshield door frame brace. At first thought at first that the front windshield might not be sealed tight but it was checked out and alright. I also checked the black rubber strip that covers the hood bracket bolts. Again this was not the problem. The noise is not coming from the door ... Read More...

I purchased my Avalance in Feb 08 it is an 07 so it was a slightly used purchase. However being that it was fairly new, I figured it would be a good buy. NOT...this car is Junk! It looks nice, but from day one the brakes were squeeky but new, the battery was constantly dieing out on me, finally had AAA replace my battery. The air noise comming through the windows is annonying ... Read More...

Did you every figure out what happened with your breaks? I have a 2002 Av that I just changed the breaks on and had the same issue. Front pads look new, rear completely gone!! I have 36K on the truck and this was the first set of pads. Please let me know if you got any useful information on what the problem was. Thanks sgt_blackhawk@yahoo.com Read More...

I am having th same problem with my 2002 Avalanche. When I changed my disc pads, the back discs were completely gone and the front pads were almost new. I don't think it is using the front pads. How can I check this or what should I try to replace. Stopping down hill or at speed is scary. I think this problem has been progressive. I drove the vehicle all the time and did ... Read More...

So the idea here is to try to find one on the lot thta has been there a few ... Read More...

We have a 2002 Avalanche 2wd Z66 and haven't yet had experience in snow or other poor conditions, but from all that I've read and seen on the Chevy Avalanche Fan Club forum, current 02's with traction control alone do quite well in such conditions. It's actually one of those times that unless you really want it or are going far off-road, 4wd just isn't needed. So why ... Read More...
