    How long do I have?

    We get 265,000 out of our Sheriff Tahoe's, you know how cops drive..... We have 124,000+ on our Yukon, not one problem. I had a leak in the cab and discovered the wire from XM that I put in the rubber trim re-directed the water down the gutter (rubber) and right into the cab. So...Now I feel...

    What are the differences...

    They may have rear drums, not sure though, a buddy bought a pickup 06 Silverado and it had drum brakes with the Z-71..... Aaron

    Lamps burnt out?

    update, my power window lights came on the switches, I suspect a loose solder joint on the circuit board. I tapped the power mirror and the lights came on for a moment then off again. I may tear apart my next days off and investigate. Those switches are pushed a lot thus breaking the...

    Front door lock-2000 Tahoe

    Does your door have a keyhole? Not being a smart aleck, we all forget about the keylock on the doors. I panicked when my key fob quit working and then realized I had a keyhole to which I used until I bought a new battery. Other than that, not sure what you could do. Look for a blown fuse...

    E85 Flex Fuel

    I've read that the E85 models don't get as good mileage as gas and offsets any savings. I also read that there isn't as much power with E-85 fuel.......Can't remember where I read it, maybe Motor Trend??. We are paying 3.559 for regular here in good ol' Yreka, CA (near Oregon border off of...

    Lamps burnt out?

    It's the bulbs. I've had my power window switch apart but can't access the bottom part which is where the soldering in of lights go. It would be easy to be able to get the lower housing off of the pins of where the harness plugs into. I too have lights out. If I ever get to it, I'll do a...

    Thinking of "downgrading" to an Envoy/TB

    Just remember, the Envoy and Trailblazer are going to get the axe soon as the new GMC Acadia and their respective rebadges (Buick Enclave, Saturn Outlook)are going to be the main downsized rig. But the GMC Acadia has a longer wheelbase than a Yukon/Tahoe or is it overall length, can't remember...

    99 Tahoe LT 80,000 miles Black

    I would suspect a bad tranny/transfer case and he knows it. 99's are nice cars and a Z71 to boot, take someone with you who is non biased (your buying it and already like it etc) and can fill you in on what he sees as well. Like others said, check fluids, look underneath for leaks and signs of...

    oil service miles?

    Not sure where the '02's fell, but my '00 burned or better yet, sucked oil through the pvc valve, I read about a TSB for a new fixed orifice valve and 10 bucks later, no more oil burning and that was around 72,000+ miles and now it has 124,000+ and doesn't burn a drop of oil. I check it everty...

    100K Maintence

    Agree with above. When I hit the 100,000 mark, I: changed the plugs/wires antifreeze (with new red goo and distilled water) tranny fluid/filter (I change every year as it is) rear diff fluid (2wd) grease everything(do at every oil change anyways) flushed the brake fluid and...

    02 yukon pass heated mirror not working?

    Heating element probably out, mine is out too, just waiting to get a new mirror (no money right now). The mirrors just pop out if you tilt them down all the way and use a soft pry tool and pry and pray, it'll pop out pretty easy from what I read on other forums. The mirror is held on like a...

    Has anyone bought an aftermarket denali grill?

    I was curious too if aftermarket replacement grilles are okay. I saw one that LMC was selling, decent price. Dealer wants almost 400 bucks for a new Yukon grille, much less a Denali grille. Aaron

    Are your power windows slow??

    Ditto on my end, right rear regulator bit the dust, replaced, lubed remaining windows' tracks AND cables that work the tracks, good as new. I try to spray them once a year after winter. Still work good as new. Aaron

    grr, i broke my mirror, how do i go about fixing it. (pics)

    Good show. My right rear window regulator bit the dust and the motor got really hot (cables got tangled up), dealer wanted 225 for a new regulator w/motor. I paid 17+ shipping, I think 8 bucks for shipping (no call for a regulator that week I guess). It was brand new in the box with the...

    Finally happened. My 'hoe got hit today!!

    Sorry to hear that JK, no matter how hard you try to protect your ride, it happens. My wife thankfully parks away from shopping carts/cart park areas, other cars and if she has to, parks near an upper class car. Hope you get her fixed, you have a nice ride. Aaron
