2013 Chevy Silverado 3500 with a 6.0 Engine. Customers concern "my driveshaft is bent and I have some other issues that need be addressed, can you look it over for me?". We found that the driveshaft was in fact bent. We had a brand new driveshaft built and installed it. After the installation of the driveshaft, we performed a full inspection of the vehicle and determine that it had multiple issues. We found that the water pump was leaking, the transmission cooler lines were leaking, oil pan and oil cooler line gasket were leaking, and the serpentine and A/C belts needed to be replaced. After the visual inspection, we performed a test drive. During the test drive we noticed that the vehicle seemed to have torque converter shudder. We confirmed the torque converter shudder VIA Snap on scan tool Data PIDS. After we completed the full inspection, we informed the customer of our findings. He approved everything except for the torque converter replacement (It will be replaced next week). We replaced all of the failing components, verified proper functionality of the new parts, and gave the vehicle back to the customer. The customer will be back next week to get his torque converter replaced. Give us a call for scheduling!
