Caliper Replacement Question
I plan to change out the calipers on my C7 with the Z/51 package. (I got color matched GM based rotors to match the DSOM). I was going to change them myself but I have been told that besides the "mechanical" aspects of the change out, there is also a computer/sensor/software aspect to it and hence needs to be done by GM/Chevy dealership. I have no idea to the validity of this computer intervention. Thank you to those in advance who reply! Greatly appreciate the knowledgeable feedback.
