    What would you do? Truck Needs Engine?

    Throw a LS7 427 from a Corvette in it, or better yet an LS9 Supercharged. Make it fun to drive. Honestly get a second opinion.

    New Yukon SLE or Used SLT?

    It is the foam they have to use. My coworker's girlfriend (been together for 10 years mind you) works for a major interior supplier in Michigan. The reason why new seats are so uncomfortable is the government has mandated they meet biodegradable requirements, therefore the foam they used 10...

    New Yukon SLE or Used SLT?

    You are only going to go backwards. The last "comfortable" seating were the 07-14, and the previous generation thru 06 were even way way better than that.

    10Lxx vs 8Lxx vs 6Lxx Replacement for 4L65

    My 2007 Tahoe has the 4 Speed transmission. Honestly, from what I have heard it is a better, more reliable transmission than the 6, 8, or 10 speeds.

    DOD Delete Cost

    The problem with the DOD, as per my understanding is the constant collapse and then expansion of the DOD lifters, if you eliminate them from collapsing, then in theory they should not wear out, unless they are already worn. I plugged in a RANGE DOD disabler at around 200K, and I change my oil...

    whine from rear BOSE speakers (Not rear control unit)

    2007 Tahoe LTZ - BOSE Radio. I seem to be developing a whine in my rear speakers, I have replaced the rear center console heater control unit with 2 different new GM units and they both did the same thing. So I highly doubt that the rear controls are the issue. I am wondering what others...

    GM just does not care anymore. Leaving after 40 years

    It is about moving a product, and hoping you do not need a repair on their dime.

    GMT800 vs GMT900. Which to buy?

    The Catalytic Convertor, is almost always the Right Side (Bank 2), one time out of the 5 it has failed was bank 1, every other time is Bank 2. It lasted about 70,000 miles this last time, I think this last failure was my own fault because I took so long to replace Cyl 8 spark plug. I have...

    GMT800 vs GMT900. Which to buy?

    As mentioned before, I have 280K on my 2007 Tahoe LTZ. In January my wife and me went to Hawaii, and we rented a newer Tahoe GMT900. It was a nice truck had some newer features, but it did not have anything that made me want one. And, with only 60,000 miles on it the truck ran like garbage...

    GMT800 vs GMT900. Which to buy?

    I have a 2007 Tahoe LTZ, 280,000 miles, burns no oil, original 4 speed Transmission (never rebuilt) The only recurring issue I have is the catalytic convertor likes to fail, and no one can diagnose why. I had the rear axle rebuilt at around 200K due to a funny noise. Beyond that it has been...

    Radio drains battery.

    2007 Tahoe LTZ I just read this thread https://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/factory-radio-wont-shut-off-rap-issue.141648/ The thread above seems to point to the primary switch on the drivers door, either the door actuator, or the main switch (with the window switches, door locks etc) And...

    2007 Right turn signal turns on Brights - SOLVED

    UPdate: Ended up purchasing a new turn signal 15849314 from GM Parts Direct, ended up paying $34.05 + $12.45 for Shipping total of $45.50. The switch is easy to swap out, you do need a size 25 Torx bit (preferably a driver) a small flat screw driver or a pick. Pretty straight forward. 1)...

    Driver Speaker Quit-Where to Start?

    My 07 got a little corrosion on the plug itself by the speaker. I took the door panel off, and unplugged it, took some sandpaper and just cleaned up the contacts. Put it back together and it has been fine since.

    2007 Right turn signal turns on Brights - SOLVED

    Not a whole lot, the ole Tahoe is running good, really have not had many issues with it. Ended up buying a new vehicle to ultimately replace it but for now I am going to keep my 2007 as a winter vehicle until it completely dies.

    2007 Right turn signal turns on Brights - SOLVED

    2007 Tahoe LTZ 4x4 5.3 Flex, 279,000 miles When I turn the right turn signal on, sometimes it likes to flash my bright lights, I just have to touch the lever and the brights will turn off. I know it is the switch wearing out, but is it servicable or just get a whole new switch.

    If you won the lottery and you could have any truck, what would you choose?

    I didn't win the lottery, but I just bought a new (2022) Durango SRT. I liked it better than the Tahoe and it can tow about the same. I kept my 2007 Tahoe for backup, winter beater etc..

    Steering Wheel

    So yesterday I took a brand new, only 4 miles 2023 Tahoe Premier (with additional options) for a drive. I really liked it but I felt like the steering wheel was small. Coming from my 2007 it was noticably smaller, and in effect where I like my 2007 wheel in relation to the seat I found that I...

    Should I take a 3000 miles road trip w/ 144k miles

    I have 274,000 miles on my 2007 Tahoe 5.3 LTZ and I would not think twice about going on a 3000 or 5000 mile trip. Matter of fact Last summer I went on a 3280 mile trip to Bozeman MT without a hitch. Of course it really depends on your truck, how well it is maintained, and if you are...

    I think the dealership destroyed my engine

    My sister took her Diesel to an oil change place and they drained the oil, replaced the filter and then filled the oil and apparently the tech forgot to replace the drain plug so the oil drained right through it. She started it with no oil, Needless to say it was a huge and expensive oops for...

    2022 Orders Buyer Beware - Sitting in Texas for months

    They are loading up cars all over the place. If you use Google earth and type Flint, MI, go exactly 2 miles north and you will spot several parking lots full of cars, tens of thousands of trucks. These come and they go, they will fill a lot and they will sit for months, then one morning there...
