Good Day People,
I have a 2004 Chevy Avalanche with 5.3L I seem to be losing brake fluid and power steering fluid. Can i get an insight from y'all? Is this something y'all can help me with? I don't have a big brake booster but i see where my brake and power steering lines go to where the master cylinder is. Any help with this would be great. TIA
 
Hey there HERO546,
I had the same problem with my 2002 2500.
Chased my tail with this problem for a bit, and I ended up replacing all of the power steering hoses and changing the seals in the steering gear (the hoses ended up being the issue, it was hard to pinpoint due to no room to properly view anything). My brake lines leaked too, only because the previous owner had them changed and someone did not tighten them properly, so the brake fluid loss was also solved as well. Hope any of this helps!

booster and or master cylinder are bad and allowing fluids to mix
have it checked ASAP

one thread is enough
 
Thanks Gents I appreciate the help Im probably going to replace the whole thing. That Hydro booster is not cheap and hard to find.
