    What tires did you switch to?

    Although my size is different, 265-70/17, I've put several different tires on this vehicle in the past 140K miles. OEM, Bridgestones, Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac, and most recently, Hankook Dynapro AT/M's. Of them all, the Wrangler Duratrac was ok, but the ride became annoying after a few...

    Expected transmission life span

    Our 2010 Hoe has over 140K on it and running great. Change the fluid, occasionally driven like I stole it (foot through the floor acceleration), and rarely tows anything. Not a burp or peep out of it. Damn good hooptie.

    Getting Rid of 2016 Yukon Denali for 2009-2014 Tahoe LTZ

    We own a 2010 Tahoe LT that's been an absolute dream to own. Really no problems to speak of. Much happier with this hooptie than we were with our 2008 GMC Acadia.

    Best wheel hub assembly??

    Goog or Timken, so long as it's not made in China or Japan. This has little to do with buy American. Asian steel is generally softer than US, Canadian, or even Mexican. If it says made in US, Canada, or Mexico, you should be good to go. IMHO

    Tranmsission Problem????

    I don't know if they did or not however, about a month and half ago, we had the 60K tranny service done so I'm presuming they replaced it then. The fluids were really bad then so I can only presume they did.

    Tranmsission Problem????

    Final Update, Got the vehicle back from the service department. They said they pulled the transmission pan and there was no shavings or pieces evident. Also, drove it all around town. Nada. Bupkis. Sooooo...........I'm going to check and maybe replace a few of the sensors that have been...

    Tranmsission Problem????

    You might be right. I may do just that. I'm still waiting for the the service "gurus" to get done with their voodoo sacrifices and let me know what they found out. They were supposed to drive it cold this morning and either they did that, found nothing, and are waiting to make it seem like...

    Tranmsission Problem????

    UPDATED Got a call from the dealer a little while ago. COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM!! :Stupid Me: Up til now I thought maybe this dealer was a bit different. I know from the questions that the service guru asked me that he didn't even read my "missive" that I typed out last night...

    Tranmsission Problem????

    I can understand completely how a supposedly unrelated system can and will affect something else. I've never seen a vehicle more tied into computers than these. I'm an accomplished shade-tree mechanic type but I don't mess with transmissions other than to remove them and replace seals (I'm...

    Tranmsission Problem????

    I don't know if I was specific enough. The grinding is not continuous. It was a momentary sound with the grinding feel when the RPM spiked. Again, the noise was momentary in nature. The temps on the other hand are new and constant. No, I know enough to have it towed back if the thing...

    Tranmsission Problem????

    We bought our 2010 Tahoe used in September of 2012. All things considered, we love the truck. Even some of it's quirks I can get used to or just ignore. But this one is worrying me. In early April, I took it to the dealer and had many of the 60K checks done, including a tranny service...
