I have a 2003 Suburban LS with OEM-style replacement mirrors. The original factory mirrors were powered but not heated. When I replaced the original mirrors, I bought Powered and Heated mirrors even though I was repeatedly told the Heat function would not work since that wasn’t part of the...
I agree with Fomoodie. I had my 2003 Suburban instrument panel serviced some years back, by a provider on eBay, of which there were many choices at the time. One of the optional choices was to add the transmission temp gauge for a nominal cost but since I don’t tow, I declined. No flashing or...
I have a 2001 with 108k miles and just did a round-trip 4k mile trip to Austin, TX trip with no issues. Normal maintenance was up to date, including spark plugs, battery and serpentine belt. I did have the water pump replaced sometime back. Told myself I would not drive her above 70 mph but on...
Since you’ve been looking at Suburbans around my vintage, thought I’d ask what kind of pricing you think a 2003 might go for. I purchased it new, an LS four-wheel, 5.3L non-flex with about 100k miles. A California vehicle, dual AC, am/fm multi-disc CD, rear DVD, bucket seats in front with two...
I like a lot of the suggestions posted here but I would try one other thing: I’d do a highway mileage run but would set the fuel mileage computer to ‘instant’ for five miles or so and see what kind of numbers it shows. Pick a fairly flat and straight highway and use a light foot. Doesn’t take...
I have a 2003 Suburban, purchased new. Normal maintenance along with one water pump and an intake gasket is the worst that’s ever happened to it.
Go to the Toyota forums and see if ALL are happy with their buying decisions...
You can buy replacement sets on both Amazon and eBay. I’ve bought three sets from eBay and they’ve been great. Two sets for my 17 year-old Suburban over the years and one for my motorhome that happens to use that exact lighting.
I personally would not waste my time trying to restore the...
I’d start with my owner’s manual and see what GM stayed about any and all modifications and unapproved modifications. Without looking at mine, I’m guessing I already know the answer.
Hello / I have a question regarding the HVAC buttons on my 2003 Suburban that light up at night. I discovered the other night that the far-left button (Off) no longer lights up at night. What does it take to gain access to the actual bulb. I'm wondering if it's pretty straight-forward and easy...
I've slowly working my way thru changing out all the fluids on my 2003 Suburban four-wheel drive with a G80 differential. After watching a couple of YouTube videos on how to change out the differential fluid, I was surprised to find that my Suburban does NOT have a drain plug on the differential...
