350 VEHICLE CARE
brake dust on the wheels and calipers
as compared to standard brake linings.
This is normal.
To help reduce squeal, high
performance brake pads are treated
with an anti-squeal paste that may
need to be reapplied periodically as
part of normal vehicle maintenance.
The anti-squeal paste will dissipate
over time. Also, the use of wheel
cleaners or power washers directly on
the brake calipers may remove the
anti-squeal paste from the brake pads.
It may be necessary to reapply the
anti-squeal paste if it is removed
during cleaning.
If brake squeal is excessive, the
anti-squeal paste should be reapplied.
The anti-squeal paste should always
be reapplied whenever the brake pads
are removed or replaced. See your
dealer for service.
Brake Pedal Travel
See your dealer if the brake pedal does
not return to normal height, or if
there is a rapid increase in pedal
travel. This could be a sign that brake
service may be required.
Replacing Brake System Parts
Always replace brake system parts
with new, approved replacement parts.
If this is not done, the brakes may not
work properly. The braking
performance can change in many
ways if the wrong brake parts are
installed or if parts are improperly
installed.
The Brake Fade Warning Assist
system is designed for use with the
factory-installed brake pads or GM
approved replacement pads. If the
brake pads on the vehicle need to be
replaced, use GM-approved brake
pads. If this is not done, the brake
fade warning system may not function
properly.
High Performance Brake Lining
Car Wash and Extended
Parking Care
If equipped with high performance
brake components, binding or
clunking may be noticeable after
extended parking or in cold weather
when the brakes have been wet, such
as when driving in the rain or after a
car wash. The clunking is normal forbrakes with high performance brake
linings and does not affect the
operation of the brakes. When driving,
normal braking will allow for the
brakes to feel smooth and the
clunking to go away. If the vehicle is
washed before overnight parking or
long term storage, drive it and apply
the brakes several times to thoroughly
dry the brakes.
Brake Rotor Wear (V-Series
Blackwing With J57 Carbon
Ceramic Rotors)
The V-Series Blackwing with J57 has
carbon ceramic brake rotors. The
rotors should be visually inspected
whenever the brake pads are replaced.
Carbon ceramic brake rotors also need
to be weighed before brake pads are
replaced to confirm that the rotor
mass is greater than the wear-out
mass printed on the rotor. The rotor
can be reused if the weight of the
rotor is above the mass limit. Carbon
ceramic brake rotors inspection and
weighing methods can be found in the
service manual.

Burnish Procedure for Corrosion
Cleanup
Corrosion spotting and grooving on
the brake rotor surface may appear
after the vehicle sits for an extended
period of time, especially in high
humidity. This corrosion may result in
brake pulsation and noise. To help
restore optimal braking performance
and reduce noise, complete the
following procedure:
Caution
Performing the brake burnish
procedure on a base brake system
can result in brake damage.
Perform this procedure only on dry
pavement, in a safe manner, and in
compliance with all local and state
ordinances/laws regarding motor
vehicle operation.
Caution
The new vehicle break-in period
should be completed before
performing the brake burnishing (Continued)
Caution (Continued)
procedure or damage may occur to
the powertrain/engine. See New
Vehicle Break-In 0236.
Caution
Brake fade can occur during this
burnish procedure and can cause
brake pedal travel and force to
increase. This could extend
stopping distance until the brakes
are fully burnished.
Completing the following procedure as
instructed will not damage the brakes.
The brake pads may smoke and
produce an odor. The braking force
and pedal travel may increase. After
the procedure, the brake pads may
appear white at the rotor contact. 1. Using the G-Force Gauge in the HUD display, apply the brakes 10
times starting at 100 km/h
(60 mph) to 50 km/h (30 mph)
while decelerating at 0.4g.
SeeHead-Up Display (HUD) 0122. This is a medium brake application.
Drive for at least 0.5 km (0.3 mi)
between applying the brakes.
2. If further cleanup of the brake discs is needed, repeat this
procedure with 0.7g applications.
As with all high performance brake
systems, some amount of brake squeal
is normal.
Brake Pad Life System (If
Equipped)
When to Change Brake Pads
If equipped, this system estimates the
remaining life of the front and rear
brake pads. Brake Pad Life is displayed
in the Driver Information Center
(DIC), along with a percentage for
each axle. The system must be reset
every time the brake pads are
changed.
When the system has determined that
the brake pads need to be replaced, a
message displays, which may include
mileage remaining.
Brake pads should always be replaced
as complete axle sets.

Use this rotation pattern if the
vehicle has different size tires on
the front and rear.
Use this rotation pattern if all
tires are the same size.
Adjust the front and rear tires to
the recommended inflation
pressure on the Tire and Loading
Information label after the tires
have been rotated. SeeTire
Pressure 0374 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0233.
Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor
System. See Tire Pressure Monitor
Operation 0377.
Check that all wheel nuts are
properly tightened. See “Wheel
Nut Torque ”under Capacities and

{Warning
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on
the parts to which it is fastened,
can cause wheel nuts to become
loose over time. The wheel
could come off and cause a
crash. When changing a wheel,
remove any rust or dirt from

Warning (Continued)
places where the wheel attaches
to the vehicle. In an emergency,
a cloth or paper towel can be
used; however, use a scraper or
wire brush later to remove all
rust or dirt.
Lightly coat the inner diameter of
the wheel hub opening with wheel
bearing grease after a wheel
change or tire rotation to prevent
corrosion or rust build-up.
{Warning
Do not apply grease to the
wheel mounting surface, wheel
conical seats, or the wheel nuts
or bolts. Grease applied to these
areas could cause a wheel to
become loose or come off,
resulting in a crash.

Additional Program Information
All program options, such as shuttle
service, may not be available at every
dealer. Contact your dealer for specific

eligibility pursuant to the terms and
conditions described herein at its sole
discretion.
Collision Damage Repair
If the vehicle is involved in a collision
and it is damaged, have the damage
repaired by a qualified technician
using the proper equipment and
quality replacement parts. Poorly
performed collision repairs diminish
the vehicle resale value, and safety
performance can be compromised in
subsequent collisions.
Collision Parts
Genuine GM Collision parts are new
parts made with the same materials
and construction methods as the partswith which the vehicle was originally
built. Genuine GM Collision parts are
the best choice to ensure that the
vehicle's designed appearance,
durability, and safety are preserved.
The use of Genuine GM parts can help
maintain the GM New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
Recycled original equipment parts
may also be used for repair. These
parts are typically removed from
vehicles that were total losses in prior
crashes. In most cases, the parts being
recycled are from undamaged sections
of the vehicle. A recycled original
equipment GM part may be an
acceptable choice to maintain the
vehicle's originally designed
appearance and safety performance;
however, the history of these parts is
not known. Such parts are not covered
by the GM New Vehicle Limited
Warranty, and any related failures are
not covered by that warranty.
Aftermarket collision parts are also
available. These are made by
companies other than GM and may
not have been tested for the vehicle.
As a result, these parts may fit poorly,
exhibit premature durability/corrosion
problems, and may not perform
properly in subsequent collisions.
Aftermarket parts are not covered by
the GM New Vehicle Limited
Warranty, and any vehicle failure
related to such parts is not covered by
that warranty.
Repair Facility
GM also recommends that you choose
a collision repair facility that meets
your needs before you ever need
collision repairs. Your dealer may have
a collision repair center with
GM-trained technicians and
state-of-the-art equipment, or be able
to recommend a collision repair center
that has GM-trained technicians and
comparable equipment.
Insuring the Vehicle
Protect your investment in the GM
vehicle with comprehensive and
collision insurance coverage. There are
significant differences in the quality of
coverage afforded by various
insurance policy terms. Many
insurance policies provide reduced
protection to the GM vehicle by

440 CUSTOMER INFORMATION
If another party's insurance company
is paying for the repairs, you are not
obligated to accept a repair valuation
based on that insurance company's
collision policy repair limits, as you
have no contractual limits with that
company. In such cases, you can have
control of the repair and parts choices
as long as the cost stays within
reasonable limits.
