    replacement front pass seat belt female end

    Okay, so I have my Tahoe for a couple of months, encoder motor goes out and I can't drive it because it takes the shop some time to get the vehicle to duplicate the problem with the 4 wheel/2 wheel drive... I finally get it back and am enjoying the ride when I jam a stupid dog leash/restraing...

    2005 Tahoe Z71 with 73,000 miles for 19,500

    Kbb When I ran the Tahoe with the Z71 and all the extras I got 19,230 for dealer price in Excellent condition. You guys are correct, guess I would be paying for having someone else do the work and take my Suzuki off my hands. I could try to sell it to private party then take that cash and put...

    2005 Tahoe Z71 with 73,000 miles for 19,500

    Okay, my vehicle hunter has another vehicle for me to take a look at? 2005/Z71 w/73,000 miles. NAV/DVD/AC with running boards tow package and Quad seating. I would imagine the Z71 package raises the price. These types of vehicles are higher cost out here where I live due to being a...

    2004 vs 2005/06 Tahoe

    Gives me something to consider Thanks, lowering my year might be a consideration, except if I buy a warranty, it seems modifying it with the fan may void the warranty...at least that's been my experience. Then again, I could bank the money I save and not get a warranty...

    2004 vs 2005/06 Tahoe

    Okay, so the 2005 loaded Tahoe was too much $$ for what I would be getting, dealer questionable etc... Maybe my price range is better served in the 2004...what's the difference between the years 04-05? Read something about "piston slap" in the 04's...what the heck is that? Seems from this...

    Okay, I finally found a 2005 Tahoe with miles at 50 thousand, navigation,dvd,leather...for $20,000. Based on Kelly Blue book sounds fair. I'm thinkin of having a mechanic check the vehicle out before buying, small investment to maybe find those fender benders that didn't make it to the...

    How does the Tahoe handle in high wind

    aftermarket sways Okay, I know NADA,nothing about sways. Can someone give me a very elementary explination about how they help in wind? The name "sways" gives me an idea that they stabilize/keep centered??... I'm no mechanic, looked at the pictures, but just need a basic description if you...

    Difference between 2004 and 2005/06 Tahoe

    Might be worth wait Thanks, mpg might be just enough to wait for the 05+ want a DVD player and that alone seems to drive the cost up... Looking for aftermarked DVD players, and am asking around to see how much to add this piece of equipment through dealers, I'm sure it will be ALOT... My...

    Difference between 2004 and 2005/06 Tahoe

    Okay, So...I might need to drop the year of Tahoe I'm looking for to get to my price range. From my research the engine in 2004 and 2005/06 is the same. As long as the mileage isn't too crazy is the 2004 Tahoe much better/worse than 05/06? My husband wants to hold off, but I'm thinking if...

    How does the Tahoe handle in high wind

    Cargo Van I drove for work I imagine it's probley like the Chevy Cargo Van I drove to work. And yes, it really rocked when the semi trucks passed. I had many a stiff neck from holding onto that steering wheel. I imagine with my Tahoe it will just take some getting used to.

    How does the Tahoe handle in high wind

    Hey, how does the Tahoe handle in high winds? Say around 25 miles per hour? I've read that they don't do so good. I expect that because they give the wind something to push against, they wouldn't do so well, but I thought their weight would help. Thanks, Soon to be the proud owner of a Tahoe

    Handling in snow

    Tires I'm one of those people that everyone is passing on snowy days. For tires, do the all weather work all right? Or is it worth getting "true" snow tires and changing back after winter? Studded tires are legal where I live, but I just don't think it's that bad....well unless an ice...

    5.3 5.3 is my preference. It seems they are harder to find with the lower mileage we're lookin for. They are around 72,000 vs. 45,000 for the 4.8. How long do these vehicles keep on tickin?? 200,000 or more? I'm anxious to get it, so I don't know if I can hold out for the 5.3. Hubby REALLY...

    How I drive... Hubby says I drive like an ole school marm... but I think I feel abit uncomfortable in my current vehicle...2007 Suzuki Grand Vitara. I used to have a GMC 2500HD pick up and I felt safe, and could see much better due to being up higher. Sold pick up due to diesel prices out...

    New to forum question re:mpg 4.8 vs. 5.3

    Hello, I am in the process of looking for a 2005-2006 Tahoe to purchase. I was wondering how great the difference is for mpg with 4.8 and 5.3 engines. I've read both, that the 5.3 gets better mileage and that they are pretty equal. So, based on experience with this, what's the realworld...
