    Dirt seems to be stuck in paint

    This is on rear door where someone would grab to shut. It's like the dirt is embedded in the paint. You can scrub really hard and see a difference, but what would get this sort of stuck on dirt off? I just got this car a few weeks ago. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

    Dirt seems to be stuck in paint

    I have a white vehicle that has a film of dirt that seems to be embedded in the paint. I tried a clay bar this past week, and it didnt seem to work. It seems to me that it needs a good polish maybe? It's not oxidized, but you can see where dirty hands leave marks on doors, and especially on the...

    4L60E slow to engage and no 4th

    Service Battery Charging System

    First picture is without ac running while driving, second is with ac on. Before yesterday it was sitting at 14 all the time. I checked all connections and they looked good. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

    Service Battery Charging System

    2007 suburban LTZ. I had this warning come up a 2 weeks ago, and I had both alternator and battery tested. Alternator was good. I needed a new battery. It's been hot and I've been pumping ac ever since and it's been running great. I had the warning come back today under normal driving. I hadn't...

    Complete Makeover

    I will be taking lots of pictures. This will be down the road. I'll probably start end of next year. Getting debt free before I throw extra money at this.

    Complete Makeover

    It does have sentimental value coming form my Dad. He's still alive, but he's important to me and I want to keep this thing forever. I'm not looking to go fast, but when i want to rip from stop light to slop light, I want it there. 500 doesn't seem all that much to me anyways. Maybe 700+ would...

    Complete Makeover

    BM, I work 80+ hrs/wk and have a family to really do much myself. I was thinking of having it all done in shops. This is a couple years down the road, but I want to get information now to prepare for what it takes. So an easy $20k in drivetrain is what you're saying? I'll look at pricing. I know...

    Complete Makeover

    I have had my 99 tahoe for 10 years now. It was my dads at first, and I took over at 170k miles. It just clicked 300k and I want to keep this thing forever. It has some body rust and needs some love. I want to do a complete frame-off restoration on this truck and do a ton of cool custom stuff to...

    No dome lights, no power locks, driver power seat out.

    there's a short behind fuse box on drivers side dash. When I apply pressure to the fuse box, everything works. I put a folded piece of cardboard between cover and fuses for now and everything is back to working...does anyone know what my next step should be? Is it as simple as removing box and...

    Broken Vaccum Line

    Does anyone know which vacuum line this is? What part number? This is on passenger side of engine on top connected to what I think is fuel rail.

    Alternator Pulley

    I have a 2007 suburban 5.3 LMG engine. I believe the squeak I'm hearing is coming from the alternator pulley. I replaced the belt with a continental serpentine and ac belt. Squeak did start after this, but i know its not the belt after spraying it with that belt lube stuff. I'm not sure which...
