    Hollow rattle from front end?

    I had similar noises and when I looked under the hood both exhaust manifold heat shields had rusted/broken off and had fallen down into the engine bay and we're clunking around. One had also fallen onto the positive cable to the starter, rubbed off some of the insulation and was shorting out the...

    Driver seat height?

    If someone figures out how to mod these seats to go lower and back further please post. This has to be one of my biggest annoyances with this truck. It's got so much damn room inside and GM didn't think that maybe a bit more adjustment would be needed for us who are a bit taller than the norm.

    Creaking rear brakes

    I had the exact same thing on my escalade. Sounds awful. Tried cleaning everything and lubricating the slides etc but nothing worked. I came across a service bulletin about it (sorry don't have it) and it pointed to the calliper pistons as the culprit. You don't need to replace them though. Take...

    Midas Mistake ?

    I don't think it's Midas' fault. If they did that after you left that would be a different story but after 14k miles, you've cooked them at one point causing glazing on the rotors/pads. This is what is causing the shuddering. Only repair is new pads and new rotors or turning the rotors. Either...

    *Clunk* Noise Backing Out With Wheel Turned

    I don't know if this helps but with me, it always did it with my 26" wheels. I had my stock 17s on for a month while inbetween getting new wheels and it never did it once. It ended up being the bigger wheels rubbed against my eibach (bigger) sway bar on full lock reversing and it caused a clunk...

    How can I fix this?

    If it's squeaking like crazy, the sway bar bushings (where the bar is attached to the frame) may need some lubrication. Squeaking is common with those bushings. Your end links look loose because they are missing a couple of the bushings...but I doubt that is what is squeaking. It should clunk if...

    Definitely the dark tint. Will look badass with the color of your truck.

    Door switch trims

    For anyone who might be curious, they do fit. I didn't get any answers here but I took a gamble and ordered anyways because they look identical. Well, they are. :thumbsup:

    Heated Seats

    There is a module under the passenger seat that controls the seat heaters. It is attached to the seat (not the floor) and is closer to the center console side. It is common that one of the contacts on the connector to the module is not making good contact. If you unplug the connector, one of the...

    Door switch trims

    I have an 07 Escalade Ext and the drivers door switch trim (wood trim around window switches) is cracked. Before I go and replace with a Caddy one, I was wondering if the brushed Tahoe switch trims are interchangeable with mine? They don't cost that much from gmpartsdirect so I was going to swap...

    I need to VENT!

    Sorry about your probs. I have purchased a lot of vehicles throughout the years. Some good an some bad. I do think what many of you are saying about auctions though is not true. You would be surprised how many vehicles actually are sold at auction and how many dealers buy and sell. They are not...

    Converting a vehicle to Canadian Standards?

    Ya I don't get the alignment thing. I've never had that required. Only reason I can see that is if it failed a provincial safety inspection and alignment was part of the fix.

    Diablo sport In tune

    I really like my intune and it is quite noticeable when you go back to stock. I prefer the 91 diablo tune ...uses more gas but I never bought this truck for it's mileage :) Nice that shift programs are avail now too...it took them a while to add that last year. You can also adjust shift firmness...

    Pissed...anyone have this issue?

    How is it not a defective part issue? You do something to it on install? I had one rip, ordered from rockauto too. No probs. Those pinch clamps will do the job just fine. Maybe it wasn't seated right...the ones they sell are rebuilds no?

    Converting a vehicle to Canadian Standards?

    I believe in the escalade it can all be done electronically at a dealer who can plug in and change to Canada settings. Really all you need to pass is speedo in KM and DRL. The speedometer is already set up for both and a flash will change it...I'd imagine DRL are the same. Mine is US but it was...

    2010 Yukon Denali shake at 50 and 80mph

    The tires may be finished. They can balance out but rubber deteriorates and I have had tires scallop where the tread blocks feel slightly uneven and rubber turned extremely hard. It really does sound like a classic balance issue though. If it were me I would see if it were possible to try...

    Window trim clear coat peeling?

    All but one of mine are peeling too. Looks like crap. Apparently they only warranty that under bumper to bumper coverage. I thought about wetsanding them a bit and hitting them with clearcoat to see if I can get them to look half decent. Replacement moulding are pretty damn expensive.
