    Water sloshing sound in roof?

    Couldn't you just blow air thru the tube at the top to empty is and see if that makes any difference?

    Water sloshing sound in roof?

    Wow...between this and the other 2021 thread where it won't go into N...made me rethink buying a 2021!

    Wife overheated the 2005. . .

    X-cellent idea. NJ garage just put in dye and finds nothing leaking. Will be driving back to MD and UV check it again. Seems I can buy a UV lite at Auto Zone or Advance Auto. P.S. - is there any amount of losing coolant that is "normal"???

    Wife overheated the 2005. . .

    OK...now where's MY coolant going??? Have to add about 3/8" to the reservoir every few weeks. Dealer finds nothing. Garage #1 replaces radiator cap and hose clamps. Garage #2 does pressure test = OK. Garage #3 does dye test and another pressure test = no leaks. Oil always looks perfectly good...

    ‘21 Yukon XL SLT v. Suburban Premier

    Quite the conundrum now. 2021 Denali XL vs. Suburban High Country. Same options, same price. Except for color (exterior & interior). Leaning toward the HC as the Denali has so much gingerbread.

    Brakes

    Can you replace just the front with slotted discs or do you have to do the rear too?

    AC goes to heat while running

    Someone answered one of my posts: "There are 4 actuators for the front AC and 2 in the back. The left one is on the bottom behind the console or middle area. The right side is on top in the middle. The recirc is on top but towards the right and the "blend" is under the driver's foot well. The...

    AC goes to heat while running

    2005 XL Has exact same problem. Mine hot on the left/cold on the right. VERY common. Don't jump to the conclusion that it is the actuator on the passenger floor even if it was making clicking sounds. Mine was the difficult one ... behind the middle dash. Replaced and works perfectly now. Even...

    A/C Ice Cold or Hot..no In-between

    6 total actuators, 3 ambient sensors...forgetaboutit. Will just take it to the Dealer and say the magic words: "Fix It...I'll pick it up in the morning!". It's the easiest! LOL

    A/C Ice Cold or Hot..no In-between

    Yes. Looked at RockAuto...saw a bunch of different looking ones. Exactly WHERE is it so I can pull it out and match up the pics?

    A/C Ice Cold or Hot..no In-between

    Had the ol' hot on the left/cold on the right. Replaced the difficult behind-the-dash actuator = fixed. Now...dial in 60 or 88 = the same output at the vents!?!?!?!? When I dial up to the 90 degree setting it trips over. Nothing in-between?!?!?

    What's an "app"??? Seriously - I have never owned a cell phone and don't plan to start! Because of all those problems...I simply never lock it!

    First year model peace of mind

    I have a thousand "scratches" that only appear in a certain light at a certain angle. One person said it was from my brushing snow off it. A very reputable paint shop said, no, the paint feels as smooth as glass...it was a deteriorating clear coat. The factory paint job I wanted (take off...

    What gas brand is the best for fill ups does it have it have to be tier 1 rated

    I take offense to your 2006+ comment as my 2006 is exactly the same as your 2005 except one year newer. Lol. I have seen marked benefits in milage and performance running 89 over 87. LOL True 2005 = 2006. Wasn't there something unique about that 2005/2006 change? I haven't really noticed any...

    What gas brand is the best for fill ups does it have it have to be tier 1 rated

    Man...who would know: Filler' up" would be so complicated. Next I'll read "For $99 we'll put fresh air in your tires...old air voids the warranty"! lol Lol LOL

    What gas brand is the best for fill ups does it have it have to be tier 1 rated

    What's a "tier"??? How would I know what "tier" any gas station IS?!?!? Hard to find "name-brand" gas stations anymore!!! FYI: Have a 2005 XL and the Dealer suggested to start using mid-grade for the sake of the fuel system.

    Oil Life Reset

    What a coincidence!!! I just today picked my 2005 XL up from the Dealer. They forgot to reset that too!!! I opted for clicking to "oil life" and holding the other button. Reset...simple. It's in the Owners Manual: "To reset the engine oil life system, use the fuel button (left) to reach the...

    Rear seat bucket in Yukon XL has slide rails?

    Mine is a 2005 XL with captain chairs on 2nd row. Tilting the back of the seat forward a few inches while the seat is down opens the rail lock to slide the whole thing. I had to study the mechanism real close to understand how all those cables interact and see it was the black plastic piece that...

    Rear seat bucket in Yukon XL has slide rails?

    Been there/done that. It is a complicated mechanism. Twisting the lever allows the seat back to flip forward JUST A LITTLE...then if working correctly, will allow the whole seat to slide forward. HOWEVER...if the seat bottom is flipped up, it allows the back to flip way forward but NOT slide the...

    Oil Pressure gauge pegged

    2005 XL - exact same problem. New sending unit fixed it. The shop had some special tool to do it = easy for them. Top rear of the engine.

    Dome lite won't turn off

    I pressed that button in under the headlamp switch that's supposed to disable the interior lights when you open the door. It doesn't ?!?!?! They still come on when you open the door.
