Crazy, mine started doing the same thing about 6 months ago, when I had around 130k on it. I can almost guarantee it's the lower belt tensioner - it's a bit of a pain to get off because there is no room down there to turn a ratchet, but it's an easy job. Part was around $60 at NAPA, the only...

I went by two Chevy dealers, and neither could point me to the correct part, and the "parts manager" wasn't available to see if he could either. Does anyone have a clue where you get replacement plastic trim for the interior? The rear bottom one is absolutely destroyed - the part that gets...

It's around $2000 to replace a transmission from most reputable shops.

Dunno if the digital is BS. It's pretty close in my wife's Benz. I don't have a digital one, I do all my calculations at the same exact pump around the same time at the QT station. Not to mention I run the trip odo every time I fill up (it's a habit from the motorcycle). I know I need to get...

1/4 foot screws! Jeez ;) Rubber washers will do the trick with screws of the same size. I think 3 inch screws might be pushing it tho ;)

17 is what I'm getting in the city now with my mods. I was between around 13 before. I'd imagine I probably would get 15-17 on road trips, but I never calculated it. Most of my road trips are in a rental :)

So I'm trolling on atlantagasprices.com (checks all the lowest gas prices around the city) and there's been this big ad in the middle for a product called "Ethos". Anyone tried it? It's supposedly a big bottle of biodegradable esters that improves gas mileage. I might get a couple bottles...

Someone correct me if I'm wrong here - but that just won't happen. Typically, winter blends just have Butane added to them, which is one of the primary reasons why winter gas is cheaper. Butane, typically, would decrease gas mileage because it has less energy than gasoline. However, in...

My passenger side DRL harness looks like it melted or exploded. I just unplugged both bulbs.

So I've been out of town quite a bit the last few months, and basically driving my Hoe between the airport and home. I got in real late the other night, and was trying to draft a 18-Wheeler... and bam, it kicks up something that heads straight at me. I tried to swerve but ended up hitting...

Shell Rotella T 5W40 synthetic NAPA Gold if I remember to pick a couple up, otherwise Fram

For that price, guaranteed it's factory harness.

I checked on mine, sure enough, the holes are there. Stamped sheet metal on most of these models are the same exact part... in other words, they're always going to have the bolt pattern for the 3rd row seat in the floor.

Bump for quote - where and how many of these points are in the Hoe?

Try a 1977 Corvette with PW. Replaced everything in that car - motor, actuators, switches, and finally the ENTIRE HARNESS. Still had intermittent issues with them about a year after replacing the harness. Needless to say, I got seriously pissed off :) So more than 30 years ;)

When I had the LOC on my stock HU, I only wired to one rear speaker. I grounded by tapping into the wiring harness ground. Same with the remote - tapped into the blue antenna wire on the harness. As far as grounding - the outer ring of RCA *is* ground. If the housing is touching the outer...

What exactly does that mean? I just rolled 130 on mine. Needed new shocks and brakes - only major maintenance so far. I'm expecting transmission will go FAR before that engine does. Electrical is a stinker on all GMs, though. I have quirks with my electrical: - driver's DRL blown 2x...

Ah, I think that's acceptable. I thought you meant swaying like 10-15v. Do you have a large sound system in it? Try turning on your lights and blasting your stereo on some bass-heavy music. See if the voltage dips. And I know I sound like a complete wanker, but it's raining today so no pics...

Good job on the Big3 - sorry, was out of town for the last few days. I promise, I will have detailed pictures soon :) That weaved silver wire is the factory ground. As far as the pitch of the engine, it's probably the TrueFlow. My S&B made the engine sound much "breathier", even in the...
