Cap Asm- Rad Fil - GM (13502354) is a company that manufactures and sells automobiles.
I believe it does not fit because the Pontiac has an expansion tank and a different cap. The cap on the GMC Savana is located right at the radiator's "neck."
I'm not sure if it'll work on your GMC. However, you should get a GM cap because all aftermarket caps with plastic threads leak on GM radiators. Locate the GM part number for your GMC and place your order. It will save you a great deal of time and aggravation.
Selected User Reviews For ACDelco GM Original Equipment RC85 15 P.S.I. Radiator Cap
" The part is made in India, not in the United States, and the package looks like a counterfeit ACDelco box you'd find on the streets of Hong Kong, where most name brand products are bootlegged. It appears and feels cheap in terms of quality. The original Stant cap that I purchased to replace it was of higher quality than this so-called "factory original. " I am unable to provide actual proven results for this cap because my car broke down shortly after I installed it, which has nothing to do with it but is a separate issue. But I'm disappointed that this cap isn't a genuine GM part; it's just painted to look like it came from a printer and packaged in a box.
2 liters and more Fits TB EXT models from 2004. I've seen some reviews where people say they got something different than they expected. Let me tell you something- what's on the backs of our pickups THIS PART, 15063597, AND THIS PART, 15042975, ARE THE SAME. There are photos to back this up. Part 15063597 is simply a STICKER that GM placed on top of the cap, according to my research. take it seriously- It costs $35 to purchase the sticker. SMH! Regardless, the cap fits perfectly, and mine was leaking at the cap's seams for no apparent reason. My cap has been on the truck since 2004, as evidenced by the photos. Both O- Rings were flush (no leak protection), and the inner workings of the "thermostat" type had a failed grommet as well as a stuck metal piece. I'm relieved to have received this new piece. Look at the images below. The photos labeled with a red asterisk are vintage. The unmarked photos are a new product as well. As you can see, I've done it again. Although the old and new parts are identical, the old part bears the OEM sticker. I hope this information is useful to you. ✌.
Is the cost reasonable? Despite purchasing this radiator cap, I am not sold on GM Original Equipment. A similar cap at a lower price would have sufficed, in my opinion. The function of this component isn't overly complicated. This cap was bought for me. because the cost of this part was comparable to that of other brands GM Original Equipment parts, in my opinion, are often no better (and in some cases, worse) than other brands. If you don't already know, here's what you should know: OEM parts used in your vehicle are NOT the same as GM Original Equipment parts. They're low-cost knockoffs, with many being made in Mexico. You've decided to buy a promotional item. Save money by purchasing a lower-cost, higher-quality part from a different company. Alternatively, you can buy a low-mileage wrecked version of your vehicle and extract genuine OEM parts. as soon as you require them.
I bought this to replace the one that was worn out on my 2005 Trailblazer. This new one has a shabby appearance and a cheap feel to it. In comparison to the original, even the printing is blurry and dull. I assume this is the genuine ACDELCO part they now sell because it is shipped and sold by Amazon. It's a shame it's not as good as the original, but I don't have a choice because my original is starting to leak around the edges. Only time will tell how well this new one works for me, but after comparing it to the original, I have my doubts. I wished I had been able to locate NOS, but I was unsuccessful.

I'm kicking myself for not deciding on this sooner. I've spent a lot of money trying to figure out why the cap continues to leak fluids. I bought two radiators in the hopes of solving the problem. Both times, new caps were used. Leaks continue to occur near the cap. I bought five caps and had no luck. But look at this hat! It's a cinch to use. NO LEAKS! I drive a Hummer H3 from 2006. It's been hot in Florida, which is exactly what I was hoping for to see if it works. So it was 90 degrees for the entire week and there were no leaks. You can rely on this hat!.
Even when the engine was at operating temperature, I noticed that I could easily squeeze and compress the upper radiator hose with my hand while changing my coolant. I noticed that the system wasn't holding anywhere near its rated pressure, despite the fact that it was supposed to be pressurized at one atmosphere gauge pressure (according to the 15 psi printed on the cap). I ordered this, crossing my fingers that it was just the radiator cap and not a leak somewhere else. I was correct, as it turned out. When I squeeze the upper radiator hose when the engine is running, it now feels more like an unopened Coke bottle, as it should. When I held the old cap up to the new and compared them visually, one thing stood out: the O- The old ring had been flattened. Now, I'm not sure how these caps work exactly, but I do know that O- The price of rings is quite low. If you're thinking about replacing your cap, take a look at the O-ring. ring size and simply replacing it (costs no more than a couple of dollars). My gut tells me that's the only problem with my old one, but I'm not sure. br>br>For the time being, I'm going to give the cap five stars because I can't think of anything negative to say about it, and it was reasonably priced. However, if I still own the car in a few years and this cap fails, I'll make sure to update the review.
On my Trailblazer LT 4 from 2004. I noticed coolant seeping from the cap area after 2L. I tightened the hose, thinking it was a loose one, but it continued to leak in the cold. I took a chance and bought this radiator cap, and when I compared them, I noticed that the O-ring was missing. The old one had a ring at the bottom of the cap, which was flat and nearly flush with the inner cap. The new cap was nice and round, and it kept everything in place perfectly. There will be no leaks any longer! fixed for a low price.
