    RMS leak stopped

    Have had a rear main seal leak for a number of years. Was quoted $800 a few years ago to repair. The mechanic and the oil change place both suggested doing nothing until the leak got much worse and required frequent additions of oil. Scotty Kilmer was touting AT-205 leak stop so I thought...

    Looking for OEM Bose NAV/head unit for 2005 Tahoe

    The stock Bose NAV/Radio head unit on my 2005 Tahoe is about dead. The FM is out, Sirius XM reception is spotty and the NAV quit working years ago (never was a very good GPS) and can’t get the NAV CD out of it. I don’t want to invest in an aftermarket unit and hope to find a used OEM unit that...

    Body panel adhesive?

    My wife backed into the right rear corner of my 2019 Tahoe which caused the lower plastic side panel to separate. The painted panel appears to have been attached to the plastic mounting piece at the wheel well by heat spot-welding the plastic. I believe I can reattach the 2 pieces with some...

    Under hood storage box

    My former 1997 Tahoe came with a black plastic storage box and lid under the hood at the left front corner where a 2nd battery would have gone. It was a great place to store jumper cables and tow strap. My 2019 has a similar place for a 2nd battery but does not have the storage box. Anyone...

    Lighted Bow tie for grill

    The lighted GMC emblem was mentioned in the discussion of the 2021s. A lighted bow tie is available from GM for some earlier models. The photo below is for a 2019 Tahoe. They are a bit pricey. I’ve not seen one on a vehicle.

    LIft gate problem - 2019 Tahoe

    The power lift gate is not working correctly on my 2019 Tahoe. Irregardless whether I try to open it with the remote, with the button on the handle or buy kicking beneath the hitch, it opens about a foot then stops. I have to manually lift it the rest of the way. Closing is similar, except...

    How do you access the rear bulbs on a 2019 Tahoe?

    I was going to replace the back-up bulbs with LEDs in my 2019 Tahoe but cannot figure out how to access them. I can’t locate any fasteners or clips that hold the tail light assembly in place nor can I reach the bulbs from under the vehicle. How do you access them?

    Cost of rear main seal replacement

    The oil change place told me that my rear main seal is leaking. I recently noticed quite a few new oil stains on my driveway. I used to do all my own maintenance and repairs but no longer have the time, place or equipment to do so any longer and need to take it to a shop. What should I expect...

    XM Radio losing signal

    2005 Tahoe Z-71 with OEM Nav system. Satellite radio drops the signal frequently, the recovers it, usually for less than a minute at a time. I’m guessing it’s possibly a loose antenna wire. Any thoughts? This has the full console with the integrated Bose subwoofer. How do I access the back of...

    Where can I get replacement foam earcups for the infrared OEM headphones that came with the RSE system? Mine are missing from both sets of headphones. I'm guessing that the grandkids may have pulled them off and lost them.

    A/C intermittent operation

    The front a/c in my 2005 Tahoe will start blowing hot air while I am driving. The rear air still blows cold. Often, if I shut off the motor, the front will be cooling when I restart. Turning it off then back on while driving does not cause it to start cooling. Any idea what might be the...

    Brakes not wearing down

    Just had a brake inspection on 2005 Tahoe Z71 with 70k miles. Front worn only 15% and rear 40%, the opposite of what I would have expected. I am the original owner and the Brakes have never been replaced. It's like the front calipers are not working, or is this normal for a 2005 Tahoe? I...
