Preliminary Inspections

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix and 2002 Oldsmobile Intrigue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Visually inspect easily accessible brake system components for obvious damage and/or leaks which may indicate that the vehicle should not be driven until further inspections have been completed.
  2. Inspect the brake master cylinder reservoir fluid level and adjust only if necessary for brake system road testing. See MASTER CYLINDER RESERVOIR FILLING  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION.
  3. Inspect the tire inflation pressures and adjust as necessary.
  4. Inspect the tire tread patterns to ensure that they are the same or very similar, especially per axle.
  5. Ensure that the vehicle is not loaded unevenly prior to brake system road testing.
