1993 Chevrolet K2500 Silverado review from North America
"Well built machine!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had the front right CV shaft go at 175,000.
Rear axle seals started leaking.
Brake rotors just too small for big truck, warping.
Front driver seat had actually broke to rock like a rockingchair.
Radiator went bad at 198,000, oil cooler line same time.
Heater blower motor bearing went during cold winter.
Rear u-joints replaced at 180,000.
General comments?
This truck is great for towing, pretty descent power.
Overall has been very reliable, while some things did go bad, I caught them before they would have actually caused larger problems.
Pretty bad gas mileage all around, 11 mpg if lucky, down hill, with wind!
