    lift gate not working

    Well we took it to the dealership to see which part it needs and they didn’t bother to look at it. A full day wasted for my wife and babysitter to boot. Guess I was better off to throw parts at it,,, last time I will be going there. Trunk is not doing anything but a very faint click when you...

    lift gate not working

    The closest dealer takes me a full day round trip to get to. The lift gate was working intermittently but has gotten worse and won’t open at all now. All I hear now is a faint click when you hit the open button on the lift gate.

    Torque converter issues

    As mentioned I used a siphon pump and got as much as I could through the dip stick tube. I couldn’t get the pan out from by the exhaust even after pulling it down with a ratchet strap,,, not sure why because I see lots of people that could. It was still enough to pull the filter and magnet out...

    lift gate not working

    So I got home to try it. It worked fine the first 3 times I tried it then, when pressing the button on the gate i heard a click, and it tried to push open but then quit before it could open. After that the button becomes unresponsive. If you let it sit some more and fiddle with the off/3/4/full...

    lift gate not working

    The power lift gate stopped working on our 2017 yukon. Neither the rear button on the gate, the inside button above the rear view mirror, or key fob will open it. However the instrument cluster will say that it is open. I searched and it seems when people have problems it will begin to open but...

    Brake pressure

    I did that when they failed to replace our a/c condenser last year when it started leaking and they still wouldn't do anything for me. I even contacted gm customer care with the special coverage number.

    Brake pressure

    I called about having this looked at and the dealership told me there was no special coverage for it. They looked up my vin# and said nothing was outstanding to my number.

    Torque converter issues

    I'm going to do this. Instead of modifying the original I'm going to get the updated one with the lower temperature thermostat as I live in Canada.

    Torque converter issues

    I've decided to do this myself. I want to see how much filings is in the pan and I want the filter changed. I will use my vacuum pump through the dip stick tube to remove most of the fluid before dropping the pan. I'm thinking I could just use the pump in between filter changes to do a half oil...

    Torque converter issues

    Service tech recommended a fluid change only. They don't like to do the filter because of the seal apparently. I feel like I want the filter changed as it never has been. Also would like to add a pan with a drain plug so I can do more regular changes. And I am also going to change the Thermal...

    Brake pressure

    After looking into this it seems we have all the same symptoms of a failing vacuum pump. I assumed the recall we already had done corrected this problem.

    Torque converter issues

    Interesting. I'm going to call my dealer and ask about this job. Buddy of mine also has a yukon like mine 2017 also and his transmission went out at 180000kms. So this is why I got looking into this.

    Torque converter issues

    So the techm needs to be replaced every once in a while or the new ones are different then the stock ones? Sorry for all the questions and appreciate all the insight !!

    Torque converter issues

    Ours is a 5.3 6 speed. Is this a diy job or better off letting a shop do the flush and filter?

    Torque converter issues

    I recently heard about how prone the torque converters are know to fail on most the full size gm suv and trucks. I’m curious to know if there is anything you can do to prolong the life of the transmission? We have 85000kms on our 2017 yukon, I’m sure we are due for a transmission oil and filter...

    Brake pressure

    Today while in our 2017 Yukon we were in a parking garage driving slow,, while pressing ******* the brake pedal it felt as if I was loosing pressure and getting a vibration sensation from the pedal. The pedal would get hard and would have almost no braking at all. I stopped and looked under for...

    faulty condenser

    Ahhh I see. Makes perfect sense lol Got it straightened out and installed. Took me 3 hours. Straight forward job, I did use the transmission fittings off the old condenser to make the lines fit tighter as the ones that came on it felt loose. Now to vacuum and recharge it.

    faulty condenser

    I received my condenser today. It’s got quite the bend to it. I assume it’s suppose to be straight,,,, the box is not beat up though?

    faulty condenser

    Thanks everyone, I ordered a spectra condenser online. It should be here today and I am going to attempt to change it myself. GM is definitely making good money on the job. Customer care offered me 25% off the job but asked that I continued to get my work done at the dealership in return lol. I...

    faulty condenser

    There is a service bulletin but it comes down to individual serial #'s not models and mine is not covered apparently. Seems ridiculous and that is why they are on back order because of how high in demand they are. I want to go aftermarket but if they end up issuing a recall and covering previous...
