    2000 tahoe z71 obs, rear turn signal melting boards

    Strangely enough, the bulbs are actually still good, after replacing the circuit board. I took the bulb from the burnt side and tested it on the other side, bulb was still good. After circuit board replacement, bulb was still good. I replaced it anyways, because it's cheap; suspicion is...

    2000 tahoe z71 obs, rear turn signal melting boards

    Nope they don't stay on. When they are working, they operate completely normally for approximately 8-9 months at a time. Then one of them will stop working and it does the fast clicker thing as if the bulb is out. Upon inspection, it is not the bulb, is the circuit board itself that controls...

    2000 tahoe z71 obs, rear turn signal melting boards

    Hi I have a 2000 Tahoe Z71, it is the old body style 5.7L V8, and it is melting the boards in the rear turn signals. Not just the bulbs, but the actual circuit boards are scorched and destroyed. I've replaced 3 so far and it keeps happening. Now the wiring inbetween is suspect. Anybody heard...

    VIN says 4x4 but I see no 4x4 Switch

    2000 LS 5.3 was either 2WD (rear) or AWD (AutoTrac). AutoTrac is default rear wheel drive and if it senses slipping it engages front axle. You don't get to control it, it decides for you, and burns out clutch for you. Precursor to Stabilitrak which was not introduced til 2003. Push...

    05 Tahoe - metallic grinding noise 7-10mph

    The dealer got back to me after 2 weeks and said it was "an issue with the stabilitrak". They wouldn't tell me anything more specific. The salesman then texted me that there was a problem with the title and he couldn't sell it until that was resolved. So I moved on - what a waste of time...

    05 Tahoe - metallic grinding noise 7-10mph

    They still haven't told me what is wrong; must be a mystery to their service department. Lame salesmen to put this on the lot with obvious mechanical defect

    05 Tahoe - metallic grinding noise 7-10mph

    Took a test drive on a local 2005 Tahoe LT with every option. It repeatedly made a metallic grinding noise from 7-10mph. Everytime, on acceleration, even gentle smooth acceleration. I could feel it in the pedals like some struggling or grinding noise... I put transmission in 2 and it did it...

    fuel injectors wrong spraying order...

    I concur. It seems fine for a few miles. Then I get it up to highway speed 60-70mph, still fine. Then I do some stop and go driving and at the stops at idle the rumbling starts, and gets worse, until the entire engine is shaking violently and check engine light is flashing. I've already had...

    fuel injectors wrong spraying order...

    They said it was fixed; I drove it for <10 miles and problem immediately returned; Engine shaking violently, random multiple misfires, flashing check engine light. They did not charge me for reprogramming the ECM... but another week it's still there.

    fuel injectors wrong spraying order...

    Has anyone ever heard of fuel injectors spraying in the wrong order? Is this actually a thing or is the dealership making this up??

    99 yukon 5.7 vortec misfire HELP

    What people are after is the increased K-Factor (stall speed). Or to have an S10 and like to think it is a Corvette. But you would be crazy to put s10 v6 TC into a yukon V8, if you ask me. Go aftermarket if you want a real upgrade (look up B&M Holeshot and you can easily find 2000 or 3000...

    Should I sell my 2007 denali for armada? Would love some advice

    Armada before 2008 has questionable 4x4. After 2008 it has AWD derived from the ATTESA system (skyline). That's about the only nice thing I have to say about it. If you do get one, first thing you must do is stillen supercharger. But it will still be slow and boring. But if you're going to...

    Eastern Catalytic

    I bought some braided flex pipes from them for my audi. They were the only ones I could find with the right diameter and option "with ends" which was necessary because when you cut out the old ones you need something to weld to. I think they are mostly wholesale which is why nobody has heard...

    "feels like brakes slipping" 2000 tahoe z71 gmt400 4L60E

    Dealership traced the data from all the ABS sensors and front left was the only problem, the other three were perfect so decided not to mess with them. They were able to pull the front left, clean it, and replace it, without snapping any plastic, so I escaped without having to replace the...

    "feels like brakes slipping" 2000 tahoe z71 gmt400 4L60E

    I pulled the 60A fuse for ABS and tested again - now the vehicle stops as expected and there is no "shudder" during low speed braking (10mph - 6mph). Symptoms are exactly as described in recall 05068C Going to have all the abs sensors cleaned but I've heard they will most likely break and...

    New From Pa with a question

    The window can't go all the way down because of the wheel well. It goes down the amount it can until the rear corner of the window would collide with the top of the wheel well. Look at it from the side
