    War on rodents?

    I have not posted in a while. I wanted to share my experience with an over eager pack rat. My wife, and share a country home surrounded by timber. Great place to live! Except living with the wild. All of my vehicles, including my tractor have been chewed on. My wife's toyota developed...

    ECBM Repair

    Finally bit the bullet and pulled my Brake module this weekend. It is in a difficult place for sure. 3 of the T20 torx came free. Laid on my back with a locker mirror for a couple of hours dremeling the last bolt free. That was the hardest part. Fixing the module was a piece of cake...

    Oil leak kicking my rear

    It does not appear to leak out of the oil cooler/blockoff. I could not get my starter out of way enough to really check the crankshaft sensor, but I don't think it is that. I am leaning toward intake manifold or camshaft sensor since I already changed the oil pressure sensor. I tried the...

    Oil leak kicking my rear

    Looked at it this weekend. Went to the car wash and power washed. Pulled the inspection plate and it does not seem to be on the flex plate or coming from there. Dripping off my starter, and near the oil filter on the other side. It seems to be coming from the top of the motor. Tried to...

    Oil leak kicking my rear

    I have not touched it since Saturday. I changed the valve cover gaskets Saturday and the oil sending unit. It was acting flakey anyway. It seems my leak is worse. Makes me want to retrace my work. Is it possible that the oil pressure has increase a bit since I sealed part of the problem...

    Oil leak kicking my rear

    Thanks so much. I seen those plates but wanted to make sure. I know that I should clean it up and look for the source. Sometimes easier said then done. I just want to see the most likely oil leak issues with these vehicles. I am given the Yukon a rest today. The ball game is on.

    Oil leak kicking my rear

    getting a drip about every 10 seconds at idle. What I have done. Changed valve covers, oil pressure sender, timing cover, and crank seal. It is dripping off the starter. Can someone show me a pic of the bell housing inspection plate. I suspect the, oil pan and rear main. I have not done...

    Weak blower motor / fan

    Your in business now! Cabin filters are the most neglected maintenance item I think. People just do not think about that. My rear blower is not running at all either. I have not troubleshot yet.

    Weak blower motor / fan

    I had the same problem. You need to change the cabin filters. There are 2 of them, and they are together side by side. Mine were totally clogged. You need to take off the cover that is to the left of your glove box. There is a little panel that gives you access. I broke the clip on the...

    Overheated

    The hardest part about this job was pulling my crankshaft pulley. The crankshaft bolt is not long enough to use the puller. Had to find a long bolt so I could get it out. I ended up tapping the right threads on a regular bolt. The crankshaft bolt is metric. Needed the bolt to install...

    Overheated

    Could not get to my Yukon until this weekend. Gallon of h20 and a couple of minutes revealed a weep-hole waterfall Friday night. Decide to hit it Saturday morning. Disassembled. When I took the WP off I notice a oil leak on my TC cover. Napa was my choice. Good parts in my opinion. Pick up...

    Overheated

    Sorry for the delay. Will not get a chance to look at it until the weekend. I will look at the WP weep hole for leakage. I suppose it is real possible my thermostat was stuck close. Thanks so much for the advice. This forum is awesome!

    Overheated

    New to forum. I have had my Yukon about a month. Had a few issues I new about. Abs which I think is solder joints in the EBCM, oil leak, and a/c issues. This morning on my commute to work my coolant light illuminated. A immediate scan of my gauge revealed climbing temps. Pulled off the road and...
