    2012 Yukon/Weird Electrical issue????

    So after looking into this issue and thinking of what it did, I started checking the grounds going to the body/engine and the battery cables (engine was replaced a month ago so figured something was left loose) and low and behold I found the braided ground strap going from the block to firewall...

    It was Rick Hendricks city Chevrolet in Charlotte North Carolina! They were awesome and very patient as I asked a ton of questions and was borderline a pain in the ass lol. I did find an oil leak that appears to be coming from the plug (oil temp sensor location???) that’s on the passenger side...

    Ya she’s really nice! I got her yesterday and drove it 3 hours back home. They replaced the engine, torque converter, rear shocks and compressor, oil and trans cooler lines, plugs and wires, and rear brake pads and rotors. It’s pretty much a rebuilt Yukon at this point lol and I’ll have to check...

    Well they’re putting a new torque converter in and replacing the rear shocks so it’s going to have 3 of the major components replaced and everything else checked. Supposedly the engine was finished yesterday and they’re putting the shocks on on Tuesday (they’re closed on Monday) so it should be...

    thinking of buying an 09 yukon xl

    Ok I’ll have to mess around for the video then. And as for the engine I asked the salesman I’ve been talking to and he said the engine did not meet their standards and they were replacing it with a new engine. I assumed it was for a lifter issue but I don’t know exactly what the reason was. And...

    Hey guys after searching for a few months I finally found a Yukon xl to buy. It’s a 12 Yukon xl Denali awd with 96k on it and the dealer that has it is putting a new engine in it. They said it doesn’t meet their engine standards and had lifter issues so they’re replacing it. It’s a one owner car...

    Fuel gauge issue

    it has about 3/4 of a tank of gas in it. i got in it this morning and the gauge now works? so if it happens again then i will check it with a scan tool and see what it says. im just hoping it isnt the sending unit in the tank cause the stepper motor in the gauge is cheaper and easier then the in...

    thinking of buying an 09 yukon xl

    The good thing about it is I’m mechanical inclined (I’m a master Honda technician) so if I had to replace anything I can and I’ve seen some of the 12-13s I’ve been looking at have the integrated brake controller and all the other creature comforts and some had 2 rear screens (I have 4 small...

    I honestly wouldn’t even think about that idler pulley being rusty as long as it didn’t make noise but what’s the rest of the car look like? I looked at one and the entire power steering pump reservoir was completely rusty and the rest of the underside of the vehicle was covered in “surface”...

    thinking of buying an 09 yukon xl

    I understand needing maintenance and pretty much anything I buy I’ll change all the fluids and filters but hard for me to justify spending 20k on a car that I’ll have to put money into right after buying just for the suspension issue and if it does have a lifter issue that’s something else I...
