Just finished this repair yesterday on my 2015 LTZ 4x4. A universal socket adapter, long extensions, and patience were my best friends. I spent more time trying to get the crankshaft position sensor unplugged than getting the actual pump out. I ended up just leaving the sensor plugged in anyway to prevent damaging the wires and was able to get the pump out just fine with it plugged in. The gasket on the new pump holds the new bolts steady for you when you install it which is also very very nice. Very happy with the results, no more hard brakes during low speeds. This was a great video thank you!

I really appreciated you making this video. Thanks for saying the crank shaft nut was 15/16. Someone else said 24mm and I was bummed. I bought the plastic Christmas tree removal tool. I also used your idea of using zip ties to put the belt back on the pulley. I wish you would of shared in better detail how you just compress the electrical connecter. That part took me about 15 mins. I prayed because I didn't want to break it like I did on my ABS sensor once. I did remove the steering shaft section, which was easy and made the whole job doable for me. I was able to reach over a cross bar and barely start the back top bolt on the vacuum pump by hand. That was another hard part. After I finished I rotated my off road tires 33's. That was tiring. But is was a productive day AND YOU HAD A LOT TO DO WITH IT! THANK YOU SO MUCH, GOD BLESS YOU! Everybody that was helped type in the comments, THANK YOU!

Was told by another dealer that it was ok for now that it didnt need replaced unless I experienced the brake problems . Well now it needs replaced and now knowing it wont cost me is nice!

Just did this today on my 16 Sierra. This is very informative video. A few things to note though, this is a 2wd install. On a 4wd, it’s definitely more difficult. Also, be very careful with the crank position sensor plug. It’s VERY fragile, take your time. Lastly, invest in a nice power ratchet like the Milwaukee in this video, it’ll save your life because these bolts are almost impossible to get to.

2014 GMC Sierra July 28. GM just did mine for free. I had to ask multiple dealer until one said there’s a “special warranty cover” that would replace the vacuum pump for free. It covers either 10 years of ownership or 150,000 miles. Mine was a 2014 with 141,000 so I was close lol. Keep asking your dealer it’s a free $800+ fix.

Really helpful video. Thanks for posting! This particular belt tool is key! I first tried another one from NAPA that was more expensive, and it didn’t work (I’m returning it.) Also, I think the truck in this video must not be a 4wd...my 2014 Sierra 4wd was tighter than this, but I was still able to do it with various wobble extensions and U joints on the ratchet handles. An electric ratchet helped a lot too. I have just over 77K miles, so no warranty/recall coverage (They’re covering this if you have less than 72K miles now as I understand it.) The dealer quoted me $800 parts and labor. I bought a new pump on Amazon, new belts (all 3) from NAPA and the stretch belt tool at Pep Boys. About $300 in parts and tools altogether. (The 3 new belts totaled as much as the new pump! Crazy.) I’m going to hit GM up to see if they’ll reimburse me for any of this. I’ll post here if I have any success.

Just did this on my 2014 4x4. A couple things - I couldn't unplug my crankshaft position sensor. It's not necessary Disconnected the upper and lower intermediate steering shafts. They were rusted/seized and it was a huge pain to pull them apart. I recommend two pairs of channelocks twisting and pulling on both sides. Completely removing the lower shaft would have been ideal but I couldn't disconnect the shaft from the steering box. Getting the new pump in was surprisingly difficult without having the gasket falling off. I pushed the two front bolts partially through the gasket to keep it in place. Laying on my back with my eyes right under where the lower front bolt on the pump goes into the engine gave me the best position to be able to guide the pump into place and hand tighten that bolt. Need lots of different sized extensions. Reconnecting the steering shafts was a huge PITA but it didn't have to be.

I have a 4x4 as well and could not unplug that sensor either. I am here looking for a video that maybe has the 4x4 so I can see how to disconnect the drive shaft

@cjdb9031 3 жыл бұрын

@@Apocalypse2383 All you have to do is remove the bolt that connects the upper and lower steering shaft. Once that's removed you can push the upper shaft towards the cabin which I think will give you enough to separate the shafts. I also disconnected the upper shaft under the steering wheel before I realized I probably didn't have to. Try that if you can't get them apart. If you do go that route, reconnect the portion under the steering wheel first, it's easier to get everything back together with more room under the hood as opposed to connecting the two shafts and then trying to connect under the steering wheel. EDIT: before disconnecting the steering shaft make sure to loop the seatbelt around the steering wheel to make sure it doesn't spin - could damage your clockspring if you don't.

What’s interesting is that the bulletin From GM states the vacuum pump is faulty (they attribute it to oil changes at incorrect intervals). The recall however states that they are only responsible for recalibrating the braking system, meaning they just plug it into a computer without replacing the part. I just took mine in for this recall and they would not replace the vacuum pump. Bummer

I have a 2014 V8 Silverado. I’m not experiencing any brake issue or noises. Got the recall notice several times. Procrastinating taking it to the dealer. Recall states to bring it in to test the pump and replace as necessary. Also was told by others that that are going to reprogram the PCM to have the pump to make vacuum pump to start making vacuum at a much higher number. Thats kind of cheating making the pump kick in earlier to make up for a weak pump. Anyway, I took it in 1-10-2020 (It only has 36,500 miles on it) and they tested it and said it needs a new one cause it doesn’t make good enough vacuum. They don’t have any in stock and it’s on national back order. So they called me and told me to check back 1-16-2020 to see if it’s done. I’m driving my 2006 Yukon now and it started leaking antifreeze at the heater core fitting. I replace it a year ago when it was zero degrees outside. I got a new one from the dealer ($34.00) and it’s plastic just like the one I put on last year. I installed and everything good now. Hopefully I will get it back soon. They said it would be no cost to me and they will extend the warranty on future pump problems.

Working on my 4x4 right now. I had to remove the intermediate steering shaft that he pointed to in the video in order to access the bolts from the top of the engine bay. I could not find a way to get the pump bolts from below. Just two bolts for the shaft. I marked the shaft after locking the steering wheel just in case. After it was removed it was mostly all feel as I still could not see the bolts from above even with the shaft removed but was able to get the wrench in and feel for them. Dropped the pump from below just like he did. The video was an awesome help! I would not have even dared to attempt it without watching it! Getting ready to torque and optest soon. Fingers crossed!

I just got a letter from Chevrolet. They are extending the warranty on some of these pumps.

Can I send you a video of my current issue with my 14 Silverado

@harleywulf 5 жыл бұрын

Just had mine replaced and now my Silverado's RPMs surge 1-200 RPMs at cruising speed. Thought it might be unrelated to the pump and belt replacement but seems too coincidental. Any ideas?

Hey just wondering, dealer replace my lifters (AFM failure) after driving it back couple days I’m hearing noises could it be the vacuum pump? 2014 Chevy Silverado

@AaronHinesAuto 4 жыл бұрын

Yes it could be. Describe these noises?

@markmontes3469 4 жыл бұрын

Aaron Hines I posted a vid of it just now, it’s more of a popping and clicking noise, it happen after the Lifters were replaced, I read on GM forums the noise could be from the vacuum pump just wasn’t to sure.

I keep getting service brake assist 2017 Chevy Silverado 271 4wd v8 . I’ve had problems with the brakes once when driving around ice . A lot when I back up a trailer or if I’m backing up to a lake under low speeds . Brake peddle gets hard and feels like the brakes are locking up . Would this be the cause?

@Sweetjamesjones520 4 ай бұрын

Definitely, did you ever get it replaced?

@lloydbauch8908 4 ай бұрын

@@Sweetjamesjones520 yes it was my vacuum pump . Very common in Silverado’s, they call it parking lot breaking syndrome, and it’s covered under a recall if you’re vehicles under 150k

Pain in the ass when it’s 4x4, I used 1/4in drive 13mm socket for the front and and removed em by hand and using a long socket twisting it. I’m just about out the new pump on. There was about a pint of motor oil coming out when I removed mine. I’m working on a 2015 suburban.
