Default I need someone to diagnose stuff. Easy work.

I live in Pearland. I have a '95 Z28. The BRAKE light is on, the ABS INOP light comes on intermittently, and there's a clanking noise coming from the passenger rear wheel/caliper. Shoot me a price to just diagnose everything. I really don't have a lot of money right now, though.

I might take you up on that offer. What it would cost in gas would be much less than for a shop to look at it. I think you messaged me about a Playstation 1, too. Still interested?

Wes,

intermitent brake light i bet you is air in the system....get a buddy and have him help you bleed the brakes.

Clanking could be warped rotors/worn pads, suspension bushings, U joint, Shocks.

Time to learn something about your car, we cant do everything for you bud.

I don't know how air could've gotten into the lines. The fluid level is fine in the master cylinder.

Yeah, we had to fix that, too.
