    Grinding noise, increases with speed under load

    Let me preface the description by saying I've searched and even thrown some parts at this problem already. I have a medium/high-pitched grinding or whining noise from under my 07 4x4 Yukon. The noise varies with speed (faster = louder) but not RPM. The noise almost completely goes away when...

    DIC not working, PRNDL is dim

    So, fried... Honestly I was worried it might be something like this. I guess I'll yank the cluster out and see what the inside looks like. I wouldn't trust myself with repairs to a circuit board so any recommendations on a place to get my cluster repaired?

    DIC not working, PRNDL is dim

    Yesterday while pulling into a gas station I noticed the DIC was not illuminated not the gear indicator on the cluster. Once parked, I shut the truck off and turned it back on and the DIC/gear indicator came back. Turned the truck off once more and everything seemed fine. Drove a few miles...

    Transmission slip in/out of 4th

    The end of the story goes like this. The 3-4 clutch was pretty well gone, most of the seals were completely worn out. The relatively new fluid had definitely taken on some material from within the trans. Took it to a shop where they went through the whole thing and rebuilt with new clutches...

    Transmission slip in/out of 4th

    Nope, no rebuilds. Just regular transmission services from yours truly. With it being just 4th gear I thought I had a decent plant of attack with changing the servo seals and the solenoids to eliminate that but now I've lost 3rd and I'm thinking it may be the 3-4 clutch. We'll see.

    Transmission slip in/out of 4th

    Well, today it got worse. Going up a hill in 3rd the RPMs ran away. So now I've got no 3rd or 4th, revs to the moon after 2nd. What's your manual say for that @swathdiver?

    Transmission slip in/out of 4th

    Been busy with alot without much time to spend on here. Work, coaching sports year round, plus I just haven't done much with the truck except keep it going as long as possible. That was going pretty well until this issue popped up. I've got servo seals on the way for the 4th gear servo. I...

    Transmission slip in/out of 4th

    Have an issue related to 4th gear in my 4L65. Truck has ~250k miles so it may mean full rebuild but this doesn't seem like the band is completely gone. Only trans mods are Corvette 2nd gear servo and a Superior Billet 4th gear servo. Leaving from a dead stop truck drives completely normal...

    Changing pan gasket... Plug oil bypass?

    Appreciate the info guys. I'll replace the valve with a new one, add the shield and probably go back with the recommended replacement Melling pump.

    Changing pan gasket... Plug oil bypass?

    Hey guys, read a few threads around my question but didn't find a direct answer. I have AFM disabled via BB tune. Will probably delete the hard parts in time. I need to drop the pan to change the gasket and the pump o-ring. Should I plug the oil pressure bypass while I'm at it? Again, AFM...

    Power Steering Riddle

    First off, thanks for the help guys. Answers below. Did not think of this. I'll have to say that the noise is definitely in the pump. Mechanics stethoscope got me there. The noise also changes tone with engine RPM. Good thought though. I did think of this. I don't see a lot of bubbles...

    What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Don't need air for that stuff. I put mine on the ground, pop the center cap and hit it with either of my cordless impacts, crappy old Craftsman or my new Milwaukee 12v stubby. Before impacts a 4ft piece of conduit over a 1/2 rachet did the trick.

    Power Steering Riddle

    Update on the vacuum reading. Last night when I got home. I put the mityvac on the PS reservoir and pulled 15 inHg with everything still warm. I'd done this before and saw the vacuum go up as it cooled down, this time, it dropped to 14 inHg by 11pm. I pumped back to 15 inHg and it held over...

    Power Steering Riddle

    I'd thought about the backwards hoses but it's impossible. The hold down bolt for the plate that holds them in is offset and attached to one of the hoses. It wouldn't line up otherwise. Good thought though, I had to check to be sure. Probably just gonna get a new ACDelco pump eventually...

    Power Steering Riddle

    Yes, did the left/right method and the vacuum method. Don't rememer the amount. Just kept bleeding it and adding until it made the fill line. The vacuum bleed held 15 inHg over night so when cold, the system is sealed up as best I can tell.

    Power Steering Riddle

    So guys, I had a power steering leak that I was chasing which caused me to change out my power steering pump and all hoses. Good news is, the leak is gone... But only in one direction apparently. The pump is louder than I'd like it but it was a reman and I wasn't surprised when out of the box...
