    Clunking noise coming from the left front end

    Check the entire front suspension and drivetrain. Noise may be from the right side and you think is on the left.

    Cant Fill Tahoe

    If you notice he asked last year and had only 5 posts when he did. Now he likely has it fixed and doesn't give a **** about sharing what may have fixed the problem. Typical of lots of posters (posers) on here.

    Belt and pully issue

    That must have been scary to unbolt that tensioner with the belt still on it and then at the end of the bolt threads the tensioner just flew off. Dangerous. You should always check here first if you haven't done some of these mechanical things before.

    Belt and pully issue

    You are not supposed to put the belt on the tensioner and then try to mount the tensioner. The belt stays off, mount the tensioner and then use the correct tool-ratchet or wrench-to unload the spring tension of the arm of the tensioner and then slip the belt over the pulley and then release the...

    Belt and pully issue

    If it was in the hole before you took it off then it should go back in the same hole. The hole is to help locate it for correct mounting so it has the correct tension on the spring load on the belt. If the locating nub on the back of tensioner is the same size as the hole then it should fit...

    2004 tahoe clunk/ jerks forward when starting

    Well, with the other problems you stated I would start saving for a rebuild. But you may drive this thing for many many more miles before you do that.

    2004 tahoe clunk/ jerks forward when starting

    I found this: This slight movement is due to the residual transmission fluid in the clutch packs that creates a partial apply on start up. This movement is stopped by the parking pawl and/or transmission fluid exhausting completely from the clutch packs.

    Rear Brake question

    I looked all over Rock Auto Parts for that part, not there. Even typed in the casting number for a cross reference with no luck. That will be a dealer item only or salvage yard, IMO.

    That is a casting number. Care to share what the vehicle is and the year? Yukon, Tahoe, Suburban?

    Air temperature Issues

    Before replacing blend door actuators or anything else try just disconnecting the positive battery cable for 15-20 minutes and see if controller will reset. I have seen this done and work but not always. If no luck then the actuator is likely the problem. Plenty of threads about actuators and...

    Ac issue

    Your post is confusing. You make it sound like you had a problem and then replaced a lot of items and now works ok. Try to be more detailed and in chronological order. C'mon man!

    Knock Sensor Replacement parts (2001 4.8L V8 SFI)

    Make sure you plug those holes and clean and make it as pristine as possible when going back together. It will pay off in the long run.

    2004 Power Loss

    The battery needs to be good to complete the circuit for the alternator circuit that feeds power to the injectors. If you have an alternator going bad then the injectors will run off the battery till the power is gone and then engine dies. This is just basics. Good battery and alternator mean at...
