    UGHHHH I spelled brake wrong! The post got deleted on accident the first time and I hurried up and retyped it =P.


    Hi,

    Okay well I will start with the coolant problem first:

    The elbow leaked real bad and was losing a bunch of water about two weeks ago so I replaced it and the water pump. However, now I still have the light on even though there is plenty of water in it. I assume there is an air bubble in it still. It currently has the light on until the fans kick on then it goes off and when the engine is cool enough the light comes back on. Any thoughts? If so, how can I fix it?

    Second:

    The brakes shake horribly when stopping now. I thought it was the front rotors (since they were really warped) so I replaced them but there is no change. I am going to replace the back and was wondering if you guys thought it was the rear ones or not. I also was wondering how well the old pads will bed with the new rotors, they seem to be in decent shape.

    Thanks.


    UPDATE:

    - Rear rotors and pads were replaced fixing all pulsating problems. they were in really bad shape.

    - Coolant light is still on. Everything works fine. prolly just bad sensor.

    - As for tcs light. I dont care right now haha.
