    3rd Row seat belt broke

    Hi all, one of the seat belts in my 2007 Escalade 3rd row seats is missing the plastic covers. Its just a bare seat belt right now. Can I buy replacement covers or do I have to replace the seat belt? Anyone have a diagram with part numbers? Thanks

    2007 Esky Head unit upgrade

    Hello all. I know this is now an older truck but to me its new and I haven't quite found a satisfactory answer. I picked up a 2007 Escalade ESV. It has the factory navigation and the dual disc loaders, 6 disc and RSE. I don't think either work. Is there any other faceplate besides the Metra...

    Slow fuel fillup

    Hey, I picked up a super clean 2007 Escalade about a month ago. Besides fixing all the little body imperfections (door handle, dash crack, folding mirrors) it does also have an issue with slow fuel fillups. Now I know this is common with all of GM's trucks, I'm not getting any codes and...

    ZW7 Suspension - Any front shock?

    Hi all, I've noticed my wife's Yukon has gotten a bit "loose" I guess is the right word. Needs new shocks. It has the ZW7 option with the rear Sachs shocks, the fronts are a blue color. I've researched the Sachs, I'm gonna stick with factory style shocks. I've found the rear replacements on...

    Anyone SAS a 00-06 Tahoe Yukon?

    So I'm thinking of converting the family hauler into a real wheeler. I have a third boy on the way, so a Suburban/XL will probably be in my future. We currently have a 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland for our Colorado offroader/expedition type wheeler. Its great, its lifted with Rubicon...

    Why does my Yukon smell like gas?

    Hey everyone, I have a 2006 Yukon 5.3, excellent shape. Recently its been smelling like gas in the garage and even near the vehicle. I assume it has something to do with the Egt system. I got a code for large evap leak about 20,000 miles ago and changed that little solenoid near the gas tank...

    AFM. Lets discuss.

    So I'm always looking at/for 07-14 Tahoes and Denalis. Recently came across many threads about engine failure in 5.3's due to improper Afm function. I have a couple of questions. 1. Does proper oil type help this issue? 2. Does a tune that disables the afm really solve the issue or are...

    Has anyone tried reproduction chrome bumpers?

    Soooo my wife has been hard on my Yukon the past year. She lightly backed into my father in laws Sierra denting the rear bumper, right side. Then turned too early onto our street and smacked the front bumper, right side. This along with a few other things will be getting fixed at my favorite...

    I want to install a double din, how do I keep my RSE through speakers?

    Hi all, my factory six disc is starting to act up. Ive talked to Crutchfield about going with an aftermarket double din. Keeping the steering wheel controls is no problem but keeping the rse sound through the speakers is not. Apparently only 07-14 have a harness for this. Has anyone...

    Opinions/experiences with aftermarket bumpers?

    Just wondering if anyone has had experience with aftermarket chrome bumpers from say EBay. My wife decided to back into my mother in laws truck today. Slightly dented the quarter panel too in front of it, after I just had them and other stuff painted this past summer. Never fails. I'm...

    Blackbear make much of a difference on a 96-99?

    Just wondering. I know theres lotsa room for improvement on the 5.3's and tons of room with the 6.0's. Just wasn't sure how retarded the factory tuned the Vortecs. My 97 doesn't seem to have any torque management, it gets silly easier than most of my trucks.

    Pre-Vortec power difference?

    I know its a 50 Horsepower increase for the 96+ Vortec years, just wondering if anyone has any real world comparisions between the both. I have a 97 RCLB truck, freshened up with new gaskets, dizzy and spider assembly and it runs like a beast, I love it. Its no 5.3 of course but makes tons of...

    Street scene vent covers - side effects?

    Hey, I was able to pickup some street scene rear pillar vent covers for my 06 Yukon. Before I get them painted and installed I was wondering what difference these will make if any in regards to function. What are the vents on the factory plastic covers for? Any side effects to the street...

    Different factory wheels on Yukons, Tahoes, etc..

    Hi, I'm looking for pictures of different factory wheels on NBS. I have a '06 Black Yukon that I wanna get summer wheels for, preferably 20". I can't decide between the 12 spoke Denali wheels, the 6 spoke Denali wheels, or the 20" wide spoke 07+ SLT Yukon wheels. Anyone have any shots?

    Is the 2 speed transfercase gone?

    Looking at newer Yukons and I've noticed that all the dials for 4x4 selection only have 2HI, Auto, and 4HI. Have they gone away with the 4Low or something?

    Clanking coming from rear lower control arm...

    This sound just started today. It happens when taking off from a stop under moderate to heavy acceleration and also when coming to a stop. Its a simple one time clank. I was able to make it happen in the driveway by letting it roll a few feet and hitting the brakes hard. So I got the wife...

    Anyone thought of or done an LS swap into a OBS?

    Just wondering. I'm looking at 2 door Tahoe's and Yukon's and sometimes come across a pre-1996 Truck that looks good but I'm always like damn, no Vortec. 50 less horsepower. But I was wondering instead if swapping in a 5.3 would be relatively easy. Complete motor with trans and pcm of course.

    Anyone have a 2009 Tahoe with the 6.2?

    I've been browsing cars.com and autotrader looking at NNBS's for future replacement for my 2006 and decided I really want the 2009 with the 6.2. Anyone have one? How awesome is it? Seems worth it to me to hold out for a low mileage one. It must be amazing after its been tuned. Were there...
