    P0442 (Small Evap Leak) Mystery

    Some great info. on here. I'm experiencing the same intermittent "Tighten Fuel Cap Message", which eventually triggers a Check Engine Light w P0442 code on my 05 Yukon. I reset the code and the light comes back on about 6 months later. So weird! Background A couple of years ago I could not add...

    Cranks but no start...continued *SOLVED*

    Same thing happened to me during a long trip. Yukon just died as I was driving. Would crank but not start. Classic symptoms of a fuel pump dying. Stranded in the middle of nowhere I grabbed that wheel wrench and banged that fuel tank. She started right up and managed to drive 50 miles to a shop...

    2005 Yukon Dragging, Rocking, Pulsating Brakes Fixed & Improved Stopping

    Recently I noticed that my 2005 Yukon SLT would brake less efficiently and behaved strangely when the brakes were applied at higher speeds.

    DiscountTire replaced all the sensors on my 2005 Yukon with VDO brand sensors and everything worked when I picked up the truck. Either the staff at the shop doing your work does not know what they’re doing or the sensor is faulty.

From reviewing the Genie/Homelink video on YouTube, apparently if you have a Genie remote version...

    Rear Brakes how Much

    This is an old thread, but still worth commenting on. I do my own brake work and replaced the rear pads and rotors for $140 using Duralast Gold pads and Duralast rotors. I have actually had very good experience with this setup in other cars. Before proceeding with the work, I called my local...

    B0100 Unknown Diagnostic Trouble Code?

    I had the same code in my 2005 Yukon SLT and replacing the front driver side impact sensor cleared the airbag light and there is no more "Service Airbag" message on the cluster. After having the light on for some time, I had O'Reilly Auto check the vehicle who confirmed the computer was...
