    How many of you DO NOT experience buffetting and vibration problem?

    2005 XL w/ Michelin Defender 265/70R17...cruise a smooth 80/85 weekly. You all convinced me to just keep what I got rather then take a chance on something new & worse!!!

    Vibration in Steering Wheel & Armrest While Stopped

    Latest: added 4 (four) exhaust vibration dampers to the exhaust system in addition to new engine AND tranny mounts. NO CHANGE! Still a vibration in steering wheel only at specific rpm's (like 700) WHILE PARKED and idling. Me, the Dealer, 3 garages...all give up!

    Vibration in Steering Wheel & Armrest While Stopped

    Can't...don't own a cell phone, don't Tweet, Don't have a Facebook Account. Read on another Thread about Exhaust Dampers. Luckily, the 4th mechanic did his research and saw that too! I'm torn between taking it as-is to FL since we're expecting a big snow tomorrow...or taking a chance they'll do...

    Vibration in Steering Wheel & Armrest While Stopped

    Can feel it in the steering wheel while STOPPED/PARKED around 700 rpm's. Now in the FORTH GARAGE!!! THEY think it has something to do with the exhaust system. They read something (TSB???) about welding weights to the exhaust or using exhaust dampers (?).

    Vibration in Steering Wheel & Armrest While Stopped

    Yes. They claim they did just that and no change. Could it be something in the exhaust line vibrating back?!? Neither mentioned looking at an exhaust issue. Went to a Third garage, they looked, ran it, sat in it, said they wouldn't check it in as they say "anything they'd do has been done...it's...

    Vibration in Steering Wheel & Armrest While Stopped

    UPDATE: The Dealer installed (OEM) new engine mounts and transmission mount. NO CHANGE @$!@#$% Vibration seems to intensify at approx. 650 rpms. Lessens above/below that. Two mechanics and the Dealer have no clue !!! There's got to be "some thing" vibrating related to rpm's.

    Vibration in Steering Wheel & Armrest While Stopped

    2005 XL. Just started feeling this vibration...in Park or Drive standing still. Had a major tune-up at 100k and top end BG treatment yesterday. Don't have any missing. Engine runs perfectly smooth. Mechanic checked motor mounts, took off belt, eliminated harmonic balance, accessories, et al...

    Name That Part

    I think it IS indeed part of the pedal adjustment. AND, I spread out newspaper and silicon-sprayed all around the pedal while moving it up & down and hit the squeak!

    2005 Yukon, oil pressure pegged at 80

    Check my old Thread on this. SAME problem...was the sending unit on the top back of the engine. It always stayed around 40 for years...seems THAT should have been an indication its bad...s/b more like 60 when cold or high speed...40 at idle warmed up.

    Name That Part

    It's on the top of the brake pedal. It's not the brake switch. It makes a loud clicking sound when parked and push the pedal by hand, but not when in Drive (as far as I hear) . But I DO HAVE a single "click" when I apply the brake while driving?!?!? That "click" gets on my nerves! So does the...

Then hit the unlock on the fob = NO CHANGE in the seat til I got in, and hit the #1 button... THEN back to...

    Shifty Mirrors

    Do they adjust to Position #1 ??? I don't see anything in the DIC that controls that (2005 XL). R U saying...if I mess with the seat while driving...then I park...use the key fob to open the door...it'll reset the seat to before?!?

    Found this, Interior Leather Seat Covers

    I looked. I think they were VERY limited on color. Didn't even see the most used "neutral". Yes...The Seat Shop is the way to go. And great install vids.

    Oil Pressure Gauge Readings

    THAT's why I appreciate this site!!! 1st-hand experience from fellow owners. I admit to being an automotive hypochondriac (with an understanding Dealer). I was so used to it being wrong (constant 40lbs hot/cold/80mph) that now that it's right I'm NOT used to it! LOL Oh...today...start it and the...

    Oil Pressure Gauge Readings

    Mine had always stayed at 40lbs or a tad above. This weekend it all-of-a-sudden pegged at 80lbs on startup and stayed there! Diagnosed as a bad sending unit...replaced it. Now it reads 60lbs (on cold start or at 80mph) and 40 at warm idle...up & down 40-60 with rpms. Dealer said it had been bad...
