    Drivers Rear Brake and Turnsignal Not Working

    Hey guys, On my 2000 Limited, my rear drivers side, the rear brake light and turn signal stopped working. I knew it was the turnsignal for sure, started flashing fast on the dash, was able to check that pretty easy. Put a new bulb in for the turnsignal, and found the brake not working. But...

    Front End Update

    Good to know. I don't have air tools, but have a pretty stocked garage. I have a ball joint tool in the garage already. Had to do them on another car a while ago, but a few posts I came across seemed these were really bad. I'm also in AZ. The truck has spent it's entire life in AZ. THe...

    Front End Update

    The steering on my Limited is pretty loose. I mean I've got a good amount of slop in the steering wheel where i can jockey the wheel back and forth and it doesn't do anything. So it tends to wander quite a bit. Truck has 195K, front end I"m pretty sure is all original. So I'm planning to...

    And I'm back with a Limited

    I wouldn't be opposed to an LED solution, or even a halogen projector, providing it worked well. I have HID's in my SAAB and in my wife's Buick, and they do a really good job of lighting up the road. on my SAAB the HID's are both High and Low beam. SO I am pretty sure you can have them for...

    Clunk When Letting of Brakes

    Pretty sure it isn't the brakes themselves. Did a little googling, and this seems to be a common symptom of an ungreased slip yoke. So need to look at this a little more.

    Clunk When Letting of Brakes

    Hey guys, So in my 00 Limited, at times when letting off the brakes from a stop it get a clunk coming from the drivetrain. Feels like something shifting. Going to park the car till this weekend when I can get under it and inspect. Initial thought is engine or tranmission mount, or possibly...

    AC Condenser Fan Wiring

    Thanks east. That looked like it was something with an auxiliary cooling fan on a 7.4L. I think what I am going to do is set up the fan to run when the compressor is engaged, but it switch on with a time delay relay, like 30 seconds or so. I'll post back when I get into it and get it wired...

    AC Condenser Fan Wiring

    I thought that was for an electiric radiator fan, not just an AC condenser fan. After all, don't know that I see 200degrees too often, so the fan would never kick on. The purpose is to help the AC work better at idle, so I would think it would somehow be wired to the AC. Didn't have to move...

    AC Condenser Fan Wiring

    The OBS tahoe offered a condenser fan as an option from what I understand. I bought one of Amazon and bolted it up, but haven't wired it yet. Does anyone know how the factory wiring was for the condnser fan? If not, I will probably wire it so that the fan comes on with the AC compressor.

    2000 Tahoe New Owner

    I'm in SE Chandler. Sounds like you are doing the right preventative stuff. My 2000 Limited has 195K on it, fires right up, engine is smooth and the transmission shifts well. I think if you don't beat on it too badly, it will go for quite a while. I really like the roominess and size of the...

    And I'm back with a Limited

    I won't put HIDs in the reflector. It would be some kind of projector retrofit. I can't stand it when people put HIDs in a reflector and just blind everyone. I won't do that to other drivers.

    2000 Tahoe New Owner

    Welcome. Where in AZ are you? I'm down in Chandler. I just bought my old 2000 Limited back from the guy I sold it to. Fluids is the big thing, do the oil and fluid changes. I would suspect plugs, cap, rotor, wires are due, unless they were done recently. The intake manifold gaskets, if...

    And I'm back with a Limited

    I will have to look at the glass ones. Glass shouldn't fade. But they can chip and crack. I think the headlights on my Saab are Glass, and the previous owner put a protection sheild over them, about 1/8'' thick. Which could be an option to prevent rocks from breaking them. The output is...

    And I'm back with a Limited

    I have bought and sold a lot of cars. When ever I sell something I try to make sure that I would be comfortable taking it on a drive across the country. Or I make sure I fully disclose the issues it has. When someone buys a vehicle it is usually a big chunk of money for them. I never want...

    And I'm back with a Limited

    Yep, side skits on it, that was part of the Limited package for 2000. Interior is great. The paint is rough. But I'm not to worried about that. I have used the headlight restoration kit before, but these were cheap head lights. So I'd probably just replace them with something else. No rush...

    And I'm back with a Limited

    Yep, those are the OEM wheels . Even has the matching spare. I put those lights in it 3 years ago. The AZ heat and sun is not kind to plastic. Or black paint

    And I'm back with a Limited

    Just picked this back up today. The long story. I bought it in 2013 after we had our first daughter. In 2016 we sold it, as we bought my wife something more to her liking that was a full size SUV. We then got rid of her full size SUV for a cross-over SUV, but regretted not having the size...

    Thinking of another OBS

    I don't even know that I want 4WD. I live in Phoenix, the weather doesn't ever really require 4WD or AWD for me, I pretty much always stay on paved roads. Although, I have also been thinking of a Saab 9-7 with the 5.3. I'm a Saab guy, so another in the fleet would be pretty cool :D

    Thinking of another OBS

    Hello all, I used to have a 2000 Limited, was a great truck, rode smooth, descent gas mileage, looked sharp and easy to work on, etc. But we sold it when we bought the wife a big SUV. We are no longer in the ownership of a large SUV, and we are missing the large hauling capability. So I am...

    Thinking of another OBS

    Thanks for the response. I think you are right, they were definitely rushing to compete with the Navigator. The biggest advantage of the Escalade or Denali is the center console in the front. I didn't care much for the one in the limited. The cup holder didn't hold my coffee cup very...

    Thinking of another OBS

    Hey guys, About a year ago I sold my 00 Limited, we went through a few different cars, and currently have no vehicles capable of towing. I really liked the Tahoe, and was sad to let it go, but am now thinking of picking up another OBS. I am debating between finding another limited, or...

    2000 Tahoe Limited - Phoenix AZ - $3975 obo

    It really has been a great truck. I try to take care of all our vehicles. Hopefully it will catch the eye of someone that wants a good truck. I would have no worries about hopping in this thing and driving it across country tomorrow.

    Running Warm at Idle

    No, there was no howl at all from the moment I started moving. I do recal that I would hear the howl heading out of my neighbor hood and feel the drag on the engine. Nothing today. Even when I left for lunch. I will swap out the clutch and go from there.
