    Gas smell inside and out SOLVED!

    Problem solved! It was the Fuel Feed Hose and it was the result of rubbing against the undercarriage. The GM replacement part has a braided cover over the plastic tube so the redesign should prevent the problem from occurring again. Hope this helps someone else.

    Gas smell inside and out SOLVED!

    Seems like some owners have had to replace the Fuel Feed Hose (GM #84200271) because the plastic hose rubs against the undercarriage and causes a pinhole leak. Anyone experienced this problem? Smell is strong around tank.

    Rear A/C cold, Front A/C not so much

    2015 Tahoe, 100K Outside temperature is 86 degrees F. Front A/C isn't very cool. Back is cold. Even when I turn rear air off, front still isn't cold. Any ideas?

    Looking for Suspension Advice

    I replaced the upper arms but just the ball joints on lower. They may need to be replaced again as well. Didn't replace any bushings. No autoride

    Looking for Suspension Advice

    Owned my 2009 Yukon XL SLT 2WD since new. Replaced strut assemblies and shocks as well as ball joints at 150K. Got parts from 1AAuto. Definitely don't recommend them. The front end was several inches higher for months. Looked like the engine was out of it. The ride was not improved at all...

    Hard start after fueling, Code P0496

    Code is P0496 (in the title) I would say starved. You have to pump gas to get it to start. Idles erratically then smooths out and is fine.

    08 tahoe with 102 k miles and Afm

    I personally recommend Tune over Range. These vehicles do consume oil. Don't rely on the Oil Life Sensor. It will let you go far too long. Check your oil and change it in order to keep this engine running. The clearances on the valve lifters are so tight that any sludge or dirt will cause...

    Hard start after fueling, Code P0496

    '09 GMC Yukon XL 5.3 Gas (not flex) 234K Recently had trouble starting after getting gas. Doesn't seem to matter if I get a full tank or a quarter of a tank. Also doesn't matter if I fill it slow or fast. Always has trouble starting after fueling. Once I did get a loose gas cap message...

    Starting Issues

    Update: Tried turning the key to ON position several times before starting. Didn't make any difference. Had trouble starting this morning. Put emergency brake on and it started right up. E-brake turns off headlights. Replaced fuel pump several times. What could be the connection?

    Strut/Shock Recommendations?

    I replaced the original strut assemblies and shocks along with the ball joints around 50K ago. I purchased them from 1A Auto. Have never been satisfied with them. Took months for the front springs to come down to factory height. Ride is terrible. Looking to replace them with something more...

    "Engine Hot AC Off" message?????

    My wife headed to work this morning. 60 degrees. She gets a couple of miles down the road and gets "Engine Hot AC Off" message. The temperature gauge is at 160 when normally it would be at 210 within a few minutes. Nothing under the hood seems hot. The temperature gauge never comes off of...

    Alternator charging issues

    I've owned mine since new. Now has 225K on it. It has always done that and I've never liked it but that's the way it was designed. Like the AFM, it's another attempt to hit those EPA mpg numbers. Don't worry about it. It's normal.
