    Service Tire Monitor System issues.

    Is there any other reasons I could get the Service TPMS other than bad TPMS sensors? I started getting the message about a month ago randomly, and when I took it into the tire shop who put my new tires, and new TPMS sensors on (late Feb/early March of this year) they said they where all talking...

    Are our wheels hubcentric?

    Well basically just what the title asks. Are they hubcentric or do the wheel studs hold the weight?

    4L60/65E Year differances, common problems, & Video series of a full tear down/rebuld

    Found this video series showing the year differences, common problems, and a full rebuild of a 2004 4L60E transmission. He also notes the differences between the 60, and the 65E. Right now the series is only about 95% complete, but you can still watch what is done, and learn quite a bit about...

    Block heater for a 5.3ltr

    Anyone know the part number? Amazon shows a few for GMs but not specifically for the 5.3. Rock Auto doesn't show any and all I can find at Autozone are tank style.

    Would you recommend a Bosh fuel pump for the replacement?

    So I've been having issues with occasional long crank times (unless I cycle the key a few times to prime the fuel system), and the pump is the original with 230,000+ miles on it. It's not noisy, it always starts, there are no hesitations, and it runs great at WOT. Really my only reason to...

    Using a Nexus 7 instead of a TAB?

    Has anyone done a Nexus 7 instead of the Galaxy TAB? I got one for free that my brother gave me. I'm curious because it won't power on and (I'm about 99% sure its the charging port) if I can get the same results I'd love to fix it, and use it. My plan is to locate it in the OEM radio location...

    Speaker recommendations for the doors..

    I been trolling over some threads, and trying to come up with some good speakers to replace the OEM 04 Tahoe (standard Bose) units. What I'm not sure about is should I be looking for component systems to try to replace the OEM tweeter, or just go with a standard coaxial set up? As it is I find...

    TPMS question.

    I think I have a TPMS sensor that either went bad or has a dead battery (I can't get it to program/communicate with the system). Are all TPMS sensors the same, or do different manufactures make them different? I assume I can only use a GM TPS on a GM, but still thought I'd ask. I ask because I...

    Intake manafold gasket.....

    Any particular brand recommended? I see some with a plastic/composite frame, and some are steel. One better than the other? Anyone use the Magnum Max Dry? Can I assume the Felpro one is good?

    How To: Auto Fogs with your Auto Headlamps on 03-06 NBS Trucks.

    First things first I would state that while this mod is pretty easy you do have to cut and splice into the wiring at the BCM and build a very simple circuit. Also my Tahoe is a 2004 Z71, and the FSM I used was for a 2004 Escy (the color codes and pin outs matched 100%) however I believe the all...

    2004 5.3ltr takes forever to warm up.

    My 04 Hoe with the 5.3ltr seams like it takes forever to warm up. Ive started it and let it idle to defrost the windows, or what not letting it run for up to 30min before. If I drive it it will eventually warm fully up (temp gauge straight up and down), but even still the heat just seams not as...

    04 Replacement seat options....

    Ok. My 04 Z71 Hoe has the (front) heated leather with memory power that I like to replace due to the leather being tore, and wore from just use. Also the (for sure) drivers heat is burnt up, and I'm pretty sure it's the back because neither the full heat, nor the back only heat will stay on for...

    2004 5.3ltr tune up time...

    Planning on a tune up of my new to me 225k mile Hoe. I plan on plugs, wires, oil change, and probably a coolant change. I've gathered that the 5.3s like the AC delco plugs the best so that's what I'll get. Iridium right? What's the recommendation on the wires, or should I even bother? I was...

    About to be new to me 04 Z71

    Howdy all. I'm new here. Been lurking for a week or two trying to learn about these things. Well I'm soon to be the owner of a 2004 Hoe Z71 with the 5.3ltr for $3,500. It's a one owner (whom I personally know) rig with 225k on it. It has a few small things wrong with it, but the major...
