    Buying 06 Z71 in limp mode because of leak from transmission to transfer case?

    He claims that he went to Firestone late and they didn't give him a real quote, told him to come back the next day but he went and bought something new instead. Is that black 03' z71 a bad deal? Seems like a good one for Washington. I don't really care about the paint all that much, it runs and...

    Buying 06 Z71 in limp mode because of leak from transmission to transfer case?

    Still, I'd rather have a running rig. It's not a daily and will mostly have highway miles..What do you think about the 06? He says the tranny is in limp mode, not the engine. Been up for a few weeks and seems eager to sell

    Buying 06 Z71 in limp mode because of leak from transmission to transfer case?

    The other thing with the Tahoe outlined in my og post is that he wants to meet at the DMV to "make title transfer easier". And that's usually suspicious imo

    I'd probably need to replace the timing chain** and hope the trans is strong

    Buying 06 Z71 in limp mode because of leak from transmission to transfer case?

    I also found an 03' z71 5.3l that has 175k miles. He says 1 owner, and looks completely stock. It's out in the country. "New shocks all around, new pulley and tensioner, new serpentine belt, new alternator, new idler arm, new pitmen arm and stearing gear, power stearing fluid change, new sway...

    Buying 06 Z71 in limp mode because of leak from transmission to transfer case?

    I'll have to check the codes. I believe only the transmission is in limp mode and not the engine. I also found a black 03' Z71 5.3l for $5k that is 1 owner, pretty clean but has 180k miles. Worried about having to rebuild the trans, he says it runs good and " New shocks all around, new pulley...

    Buying 06 Z71 in limp mode because of leak from transmission to transfer case?

    I am considering buying this 06' with the issue above. He tells me that it is in limp mode and will only drive to 2nd/3rd gear and he had to flutter the gas and coast. He tells me that Firestone said it is a leak from the transmission to transfer case, and it needs to be sealed. he said adding...
