    Volt Gauge

    The volt gauge is pinned all the way to the right when the car is on. I had the battery and alternator tested and they test OK. How can I test the gauge? How do you fix just the volt gauge in the cluster? It is a 2004 Z71 Tahoe

    Installed Steel Brake Lines and Painted Brake Calipers

    Weird noise?? Alittle Help possibly on problem

    Finally figured it out. It's the front differential. When I put it in 4 wheel drive she humms and grinds pretty loud. Need to call around for a local shop to rebuild. Dealer wants 1200-1800 depending on the parts that need to be replaced. This sucks!
