    Should this pre-purchase inspection be a dealbreaker?

    I purchased a used 2020 Yukon SLT with 24k mi. at Carmax for $54k. We flew across the country to pick it up and drove it back home where I could take it to a trusted mechanic to do an inspection. The B2B warranty expired in July but there's almost 2 years and 34k mi left on the powertrain. I...

    Front passenger wheel randomly locked up on right turns.

    I was making a right turn from a stop and when I accelerated (under 10mph) my right front tire felt like it was skidding on gravel and chirping like it was being dragged. I wrote it off as maybe road debris. The next right turn the same thing happened while decelerating into the turn. On the...

    ZW7 rear struts for ‘07 Yukon

    I hope I’m posting in the right place. I have a 2007 Yukon SLT w/ 128k. I rebuilt the entire front end at about 90k. I’ve been nervous to touch the bouncy rear other than the stabilizer links because I kept getting conflicting info on whether or not I have Nivomat self-leveling struts (I don’t...

    2007 Yukon..Hard Shifting.

    I accidentally posted this in the 2021+ area. Yesterday I had something weird happen and wonder if the two correlate. I used the remote start to let my 2007 Yukon SLT warm up (45 degree weather). Got in and the vents were blowing cold after running for 10-15 minutes. Sat for another 10 minutes...

    Transmission fluid change...fail! Few ???s

    This past weekend I decided it'd be a good idea to change my trans fluid and filter in the Louisiana 100+ degree heat in my driveway at hight noon lol. Not such a good idea after all! I've read lots of info saying you need to drop the Y pipe in order to get clearance for the pan. After...

    Brake squeal driving me nuts!

    All stock 2007 Yukon SLT 79,500 mi. About 2 months ago I started getting a squealing from my front driver's side under light braking so I figured it was time to change the pads and rotors. Pulled the wheels off and still had about 50% of pad life left but one of the shims had separated from one...

    Rear vents intermittently blowing, engine off.

    I've noticed sometimes when I go to get in the truck, my rear vents are blowing. It's intermittent and it'll run for various amounts of time and shut off. The engine is off and key isn't in the ignition. I usually only notice it when it's pretty hot out 90+. I've wondered if opening the door...

    Does this look like a bad motor mount?

    I'd really appreciate it if someone can take a look at this short video clip of my engine and confirm my suspicion of a bad drivers side motor mount. http://youtu.be/DY9HdZt1VyQ I've been struggling with a vibration that is pronounced in reverse. I've tried a ton of stuff that was listed in my...

    07 Yukon Shakes in reverse (mostly)

    It's hard to describe but my truck shakes when I put it into reverse, it's at it's worst before the engine reaches operating temp. If I put it in neutral, it's as smooth as butter. In park I can feel a little stumble/shudder every few seconds but it's really pronounced in reverse. There are no...

    RPMs jumping slightly upon braking.

    Hey guys, When I'm coming to a stop I've noticed my 07 Yukon feels like it wants to pull forward a little. As far as I can tell this wasn't happening until I cleaned the TB last week. When I'm coming to a stop and get just under 10mph the RPMs quickly jump from about 500 to 700 and I feel a...

    07 Yukon SLT without adjustable pedals?

    I hope this post is in the right place. I bought a used 07 Yukon SLT a couple weeks ago and after researching the SLT package it appears that adjustable pedals and backup sensors should have been included standard in the SLT-1 package. I don't have either. It doesn't bother me any but does...

    Preserving Transmission

    Hello All, This is my first post here. I just bought a 2007 Yukon SLT with 35k mi. last week. I did tons of research on this SUV and the only bad things I've come across is on MSN autos. I read that the 4L60e transmission periodically fails. I browsed a few forums before buying and have...
