    Noise and Wobble in front end accompanied with tire wear.

    Sorry for the delayed post. Thank you all for your replies. I found a bad wheel hub assembly along with the bad CV boot. I also found a bad tie rod end boot, but I think the tie rod was still ok. I replaced the CV boot, the wheel hub assembly, and the tie rod end. I just decided to do...

    Noise and Wobble in front end accompanied with tire wear.

    I have been out looking, and I found a CV boot torn on one side. Luckily I don't think that the CV joint is damaged yet. It looks like it has just started slinging grease everywhere. I just changed the oil not long ago, and the grease wasn't there. I also found that the right hub is loose...

    Noise and Wobble in front end accompanied with tire wear.

    OK. Thanks. I will take a look there. I have replaced the upper recently. I will take a look at the lower.

    Noise and Wobble in front end accompanied with tire wear.

    Thank you for your quick reply. This wheel hop isn't normal for this Yukon though. We have put nearly 80,000 miles on it, and this is new. I believe it's the wheel hop that's causing the tire wear. My concern is what's causing the wheel hop.

    Noise and Wobble in front end accompanied with tire wear.

    I noticed yesterday that my wife's Yukon had some odd front tire wear. They have chunks taken out of them. I asked her about it, and she said " Oh yeah. I've been meaning to say something. It makes a popping noise when I turn really sharp." Driving normally it feels fine. There may be a...

    Radio flickers

    If that's not it, check your alternator. When mine started going out my radio flickered, but the headlights and dome lights also flickered.

    2007 Tahoe Misfiring Badly

    I had this issue on my Yukon with the 6.2. Didn't have compression, and it ended up having a broken valve spring. Mine doesn't have the AFM, but they symptoms of the running rough and missing were the same.

    I got the Summit Racing brand. They have been on a year, and have worked great.

    2007 Yukon Delali 6.2liter will start but will not run

    Sorry for the Delay in response. I have been really busy with work. I took it to a mechanic that I know since I didn't have time to work on it. He started it, and it was running codes for cylinder 5 and 7 missing and would barely run while holding down the gas. They did a compression test...

    2007 Yukon Delali 6.2liter will start but will not run

    I have a 6.2 Liter Denali that will start, but it will not run unless I hold the gas down. Holding the gas down will keep it running, but it has a severe miss. It was running perfectly. My wife and I had been in it all morning with no problems. We stopped at a store, got back in it, it...

    Cold Start Engine Knock Concern 09' 6.2L

    I have an 07 6.2L that does the same thing. I haven't had it long, but it has been doing it since we had it. I changed the oil because I thought maybe the dealer used a cheap filter without an anti drain back valve. That wasn't it. I also used synthetic oil. It still makes the noise. It...

    growling type of noise

    Pretty sure it would not be the ABS pump. Does it only vibrate at low speeds too? It could possibly be a U Joint too.

    Help me diagnose drivetrain issue

    Sounds like the Slip Yoke issue that several people on here have talked about. Do a search on the forum for "Slip Yoke" ,and see if those threads lead you in the right direction.

    To change or not to change tranny fluid.

    Same for me. I did a pan drop, changed the filter, and replaced the 6 quarts at 120,000mi. The fluid was brown, but didn't smell burnt at all. We have put about 5,000 miles on it since with no problems, and the fluid is now red. I am glad that I changed it.

    Storage compartment door jacked up from the factory

    To me the picture looks like the top left corner is sunk down. Is there any screwdriver adjustment on the hinges inside the compartment? If not, I bet you would have to take the whole console out to adjust it if there is any adjustment at all.
