They were still much quieter and cleaner than the OEM Brembo pads but I don't like any noise.

I just finished installing gm splash gaurds a few minutes ago.. Pretty easy, I didnt pull wheels and got all 4 on in less than 30 minutes. They look great, I have Nightfall Gray as well.Yesterday I put clear tail lights and 3rd brake light on. I'm all set for awhile. Good luck on your install.

Either you have Kiddy fingers or we are talking about the splash guards.

How do I Know in which month my fifty was build? I am asking because of the ask Al answer.

Nice! Hope you have a special coin to flip to help you decide which one gets driven each day.

Care to link to what you’re talking about? 50th production ran from 6/6/16 to late May, early June 2017. And one of the GM labels on the car usually lists the build month and year.

You can also compare your serial number to the list of Fifty s/n and find where it falls in that list.

Thank you Adam sounds like we are not affected.
I just post [url=https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=527133] Al's Answer:/]

This round of “Ask Al” focuses on the Camaro 8-Speed Automatic Transmission. I want to be clear in that we will only be talking about the Camaro application, not any other GM products in this response. You asked for information on the complaint of Transmission Shudder. We define “shudder” as a shake or vibration during light throttle acceleration, and it usually occurs between 25 and 80 mph (40 and 128 kph) at a Steady State. I hope we have generally categorized the concern properly to what you are experiencing.

We regret that we did experience a number of customer warranty cases in the 2016 Model Year. While the 2016 Model Year was a fairly short one, we did our best to rapidly collect enough data about the fluid to determine a solution. The initial findings showed an issue with the quality of the friction modifier in the fluid collected from customer cars. This is an additive to the transmission fluid to prevent a ‘shudder’ feeling during a torque converter clutch operation. If a car that is experiencing shudder is not serviced early, the torque converter clutch material could become burnished and may require a torque converter replacement. The dealer has a specific service procedure that they will follow to determine the required service for your vehicle. So, if you believe you are experiencing shudder, see your Chevy dealer right away, because the earlier you get it serviced, the better. Please keep in mind, not all 8-Speed Automatic Transmissions exhibit this issue.

So, what is the service procedure? Once we determined the issue was due to the quality of the friction modifier in the fluid, we developed a service procedure to flush and fill the transmission fluid 3 times, which eliminates most of the shudder concerns. This service process may not work for a vehicle with shudder that goes too long without service, in which case it will most likely require a new torque converter. Since we started using Dexron HP transmission fluid in March of 2017 both in production and for service, we believe we have basically eliminated the shudder. When used for service, it only requires a single flush and fill.

To summarize, if you have not experienced the shudder, you probably won’t experience the issue. If you have a 2016 or 2017 (built before March 2017) that is experiencing transmission shudder, you should get it serviced as soon as possible. If you had the ‘triple flush’ and your problem is fixed, great. If not, you will likely need a new torque converter. As always, your first stop with questions is your qualified Chevrolet dealer service station.

@Martinjlm,
I have an EU model, I don’t know if our cars are on that list and what for a list

I should have been more specific. The last 8 digits are the serialization. Those numbers would not change sequence based on market of sale. My last 8 are H0103691. My car was built in June 2016, so it was in the window, but I haven’t experienced the problem.

They have some tape on front & rear, there is a hard plastic brace that needs to put slid into place on front ones that has one bolt and then 3 pop rivits go through it. I had front wheel cranked all the way, screwed on brace piece, then predrilled the 3 holes using smaller bits until I got up to the 13/64 that instuctions called for. put the 3 rivets in place triggered forst two, the top felt like the inner fender well was pushing away a litttle so I screwed a drywall screw in a few threads and pulled it tight against rivit and triggered it. pulled the red piece of tape off just before I tightened rivits.

The rear ones, remove 3 factory screws, replace with 3 screws supplied. Pretty
easy, I'm 65 with bad arthris in thumbs. Did thumbs hurt afterwards yes, but it wasnt bad. For the back you'll need small 1/4" socket set with torx, without that you would have to pull rear wheels.
