cold start no brakes
On a cold start the vac.stays at about 10" for a minute then it goes to about 15" for a minute then in the next minute it reaches about 20" of vac.
If you pull out before that 20"vac. you have no brakes. It feels like the anti locks try to come on but you still have no brakes. Any quick fix? I also had a
water problem on drivers side front and back. They removed the whole inside and sprayed some type of sealer all over the inside, this was after the cow fix and the door seal fit and sun roof drain fix. So far so good.

The car still stops as the brake system still was good it was just the power assist. Also GM had this issue right when they were the shortest of money. We were lucky to get a TSB.
The vaccume pump became standard half way through 09 so it is not a problem anymore. THe Solstice and SKy Turbo's had the same issues. THe LNF just builds vaccume very slow with an automatic transmisson.

Not everyone has complained as not all seem to do it.
