    2005 Tahoe blowing hot on driver, but cold everywhere else

    I belive based on my research and calling local auto parts stores that Murray PN DA 1046 is the proper part. I probably won't use the Murray part, but that at least gave me a PN to start x ref with. When I search that PN I also find Dorman x ref part 604-106, I see many reviews of people saying...

    2005 Tahoe blowing hot on driver, but cold everywhere else

    I'm not sure where I ever said I expected the blend doors to last forever. In fact, I went back and read my original post and I don't see how or why you feel thats what I was implying. I had a simple question of trouble shooting which one could be causing the exact issue we're currently facing...

    2005 Tahoe blowing hot on driver, but cold everywhere else

    This was exactly my thinking. Thank you! Since there are multiple actuators, are they all the same? Or is there a specific PN for that particular one? I rigged itup by pulling the plug keeping it on cold for now. Not a permanent fix, and no hot option, but its summer so always cold should be...

    2005 Tahoe blowing hot on driver, but cold everywhere else

    I only wanna hear from those who had this exact issue. I have no problems with it blowing on defrost when it shouldn't or anything like that at all. I think most of us shade tree mechanics know how bad the GM blend door actuators suck. Ours has the manual controls (no digital) if that matters...

    2005 Escalade ESV Gas Filling Issue

    I disconnected 2 or 3 lines. All going to left (driver side) side of canister. I believe its 2 large lines and then 1 small. Can't recall off top of head. Regardless, I pulled them all loose and pushed air at the filler neck.

    2005 Accumulator Schrader Valve question

    I have as well. In fact, I changed the switch on this one a while back. But I can see dye around it which leads me to bleieve its a slow leak from there And yes, I also can see now that there is in fact a scrader valve behind the switch. Now I gotta find a PN for it

    AC Delco has gone down the crapper like everything else

    Hmm, thats odd. Yeah, in our case, I've used AC Delco PN 12677836 twice now. Both have failed within months. I literally took out and threw away a cheap knock off brand that I had purchased at Advanced Auto probably 5 or 6 years ago. I replaced it with this AC Delco one thinking the cheap one...

    2005 Accumulator Schrader Valve question

    I have found our AC leak. Its definitely coming from the connection where the electrical pressure switch connects to the accumulator. We already replaced the pressure switch, but it has a slow leak. I have 2 questions 1) Is there a Schrader valve behind where that electrical sensor plugs in? I...

    AC Delco has gone down the crapper like everything else

    Our '05 had a Chinese brand oil pressure switch in it for like 5 years and it still worked. But I thought maybe I should change it for a better quality part since we were chasing an oil leak. So I spent the $59 on an AC delco one on 12/31. It lasted 30 days. Got is swapped under warranty for...

    2005 UQ7 Bose Speaker size question

    Actually, after tons more reading and video watching, I have discovered non Bose are 6.5 both front and rear. Bose on the other hand is 6.5 front, 5.25 rear. Many with Bose have put 6.5 in rear, but it requires modifications.

    2005 UQ7 Bose Speaker size question

    I have a really simple question. WTH is the correct speaker size for front and rear door of 2005 Tahoe with Bose? This question seems to have multiple answers. Even CRutchfield shows 5.25 as well as 6.5 size speakers. Can anyone tell me what size speaker is in the front and rear doors? We're...

    Need AC expertise HELP!

    I'm a do it yourselfer. I was raised wrenching on muscle cars and motorcycles so I typically do everything myself unless of course its something I just don't want to deal with. Good honest mechanics are hard to find. I had one that would address issues of mine that I didn't feel like or have the...
