2006 Chevy Impala LT (Engine Overheating)

You or the impala have awful bad luck. Don't worry, it's not worth thousands, so unless you can do any repairs your self, be willing to walk away from it if it really does need extensive repairs. The noise from the hub area should be pretty easy to diagnose-not that many things there that could cause it (like wheel bearing, brake part or suspension part)-and all relatively easy to replace for a DIY'er. But the overheating is the big concern, and is often expensive, just not always. I would say have it looked at by a pro, gives you the best diagnosis. You said it crashed into a wall, it could be as simple as your radiator fans not coming on- the engine computer should turn them on when a certain temperature is reached. You need the whole cooling system diagnosed-water pump, radiator, fans, thermostat, recovery tank, hoses- You have checked the fluid level by now, yes? You need to see if coolant circulation is good, and see if the system holds pressure as it should-it is a sealed system, designed to work under pretty low pressure, that is what the radiator cap is supposed to seal.

2006 chevy impala radio & dash lights stay on now when ahut car off, key out and close and lock doors automatically. Never happened before. Help please..

Could be relay contact's stuck closed allowing power to stay on . Or it could be a BCM - body control module problem . Retained Accessory Power (RAP) The retained accessory power (RAP) system allows certain vehicle functions to operate for a specific amount of time after the ignition switch is turned OFF. The body control module (BCM) monitors the ignition switch position, battery condition, and each door ajar switch status to determine whether RAP should be initiated or terminated. RAP is controlled with two different methods; serial data and relay control. Some modules receive a RAP message from the BCM over the serial data circuits. Serial data controlled RAP is deactivated as required by their modules RAP power mode operation. Other subsystems are activated directly by the BCM through a RAP relay. Components and systems that are active in RAP are also activated anytime the ignition is any position other than OFF regardless of the door switch signals. Relay Controlled RAP The BCM keeps the RAP relay energized during all power modes, except Off-Awake and Crank. The relay is also energized for approximately 10 minutes after shutting the ignition OFF and removing the key, providing no door is opened. Relay controlled RAP will end when one of the following conditions is met: • The BCM receives an input from any door ajar or open switch indicating the opening of any door after the ignition key is out of the ignition. Important: If the BCM is receiving any door ajar or open signal from those switches when the ignition key is turned OFF, RAP will not initiate. • The BCM internal timer for the RAP expires after approximately 10 minutes. • The BCM detects a decrease in battery capacity below a prescribed limit. Systems powered by the RAP relay during the RAP power mode are as follows: • A/T shift lock control solenoid assembly (w/ floor shifter) • Power window circuit breaker • RAP fuse • Inside rearview mirror (DD6) • Sunroof (CF5) Serial Data Controlled RAP RAP systems controlled by serial data are as follows: Radio Radio RAP activation/termination is the same as relay operation with 1 exception; the only door switch that will turn off the radio during RAP is the driver door open switch. Vehicle Communication Interface Module (VCIM) (Onstar®) VCIM RAP activation/termination is the same as radio operation with 1 exception; if there is an active call when the ignition key is turned off the VCIM will remain in RAP mode, and keep the radio in RAP mode until the call is terminated. Do you know what a DTC - diagnostic trouble code is ? DTC B1475 00: Retained Accessory Power Circuit Your best bet , take it to a Chevy dealer !
