    Whoosh Sound From Left Front Wheel

    I already checked and nothing is there to rub on anything when turning and even driving slow after it does it I can turn the wheel back and forth when I took it where I had room to do it and only one time. I park in my garage and can pull out just fine having to make a left turn and it can do it...

    2002 Tahoe - Check Engine and Brake Light

    I wish mine did not have all that rust and I sprayed it with truck bed coating underneath when I got it. My mechanic keeps cases of it in his shop and recommends it to people when they bring their vehicles in and shows them the rust and they usually want him to spray it. I know it is...

    Check Your Grounds

    I have been reading through a lot of posts and see a lot of people are having dash lights come on, having things come up in the message center on the dash if your Tahoe or Suburban has that, codes coming up in the computer when scanned and trying to figure out why. I had the same exact problem...

    2002 Tahoe - Check Engine and Brake Light

    I am going to put up a post about this so it is fresh due to I have been on here reading about a lot of things like this with lights going on for no reason, Tahoe's with the message center popping up messages, weird things happening, codes for no reason when scanned, and people going in circles...

    Ground Locations...

    I have been reading a lot of threads about people going in circles with problems and codes when the scan tool is plugged in showing codes. I went through this too and it started out as simple as my rear wiper on the hatch being possessed just turning itself on on super hot days. Then got tighten...

    Fuel pump and A/c relay issues

    I have been reading through some posts and I see you started to swap out relays. When you swapped them out did you look and see all kinds of different numbers on where the go on the bottom of the relay and where they plug in? When you put the relay back in we both know it can go in 2 different...

    2003 Yukon Problem

    I know this is an old post and one thing I learned from my mechanic is when you are having multiple problems check all your ground wires on the frame. I had the same thing happen to me which started out simple with the one under the front on the frame losing its ground slowly. My rear wiper was...

    Conventional synthetic blend or full synthetic

    I have been using Mobil 1 Full Synthetic 5W30 since I first changed the break in oil in my 05 Tahoe every oil change and just turned 100K on it. Hope I am not jinxing myself here, but with that I have zero oil burn and change it at around 3K miles. I found out from a few mechanics that use it in...

    Whoosh Sound From Left Front Wheel

    I thought this was my problem with getting a "whoosh" noise from the left front wheel every time I started the Tahoe and drove out of my garage. It only happens one time I get this noise and can drive for hours and it does not come back. If I shut down the Tahoe and wait a minute or so then...

    Looking to get a good ABS Hub 2005 Tahoe

    I found out my left ABS Hub is no good on my 2005 Tahoe LT with 4WD. Family Mechanic I use is great and told me that for him to get a good one it would be expensive and to get one off the internet. I am not looking for a cheap replacement and want a good quality part that will last. Anyone...
