    On the hottest week of the year.....

    Ditto on checking the harness plug pins. They are a know problem. When they get loose the resistance goes up and it burns out the fan. Look inside the connectors to see melted pin.

    2008 tahoe lift gate actuator rod end.

    I have that problem now. I can by the rod but I do not see any way to buy simply the plastic end piece that locks to the ball socket. The side that broke is the easy to get at top. So how to access the connector at lower end at the motor gear to replace the whole rod? Thoughts?

    Had my airbag replaced a few weeks ago. The dealer warned me that they might crack my dash doing the replacement and if so it would be on me to pay for replacing it. Like everyone else mine was already cracked in two places. They the airbag replacement and the dash remained exactly as...

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Swapped out On Star /Blue tooth box from 2009 Suburban for the non Blue tooth on my 2007 GMC Yukon Denali. It was a Consolidated box with the blue tooth antenna. Direct fit no extra unused wires. Paired to my I phone by first saying On Star and after response saying Blue Tooth then follow...

    Rattling / Resonance from RR under light throttle

    For years I chased a rattle. Last week I found a quarter in the opening for the rear anchor of my second row driver side seat. About 1/3 of it was visible while I had the seat up to vacuum. The quarter apparently moved up and down the channel. So I just got lucky. Sometimes it sounded as if...

    Arnott rear air shocks w/ magnaride delete

    I used the Arnott replacements for my air shocks for my 2007 GMC Yukon Denali XL. In addition to changing the shocks you also change the rear springs to beefier springs. The electronic device keeps the computer from from displaying an error code on the dash. I love the ride and the price is...

    Old style, non J hook blade preference?

    I put the Michelin Silicons on two weeks ago and so far they are great. They claim twice the life of traditional wiper blades so we will see.

    Rear End Clunk Sound

    I have a similar problem now except it feels like a hard transmission shift. It mostly happens when cold and rolling down the street out of my driveway. As I make a slight right turn and am about to give it some gas it hard clucks into another gear.

    Loud scraping, squealing, metal on metal sound from rear door jambs..

    if you can duplicate the sound while opening and closing the door repeatedly it is probably the hinge. I use a dab of wheel bearing grease on the spring and hinge. If you are talking about a metal to metal sound while driving with the doors closed it is probably not the hinge. Could be a...

    Cost of rear main seal replacement

    Almost $1,000 for my 2007 GMC Yukon Denali. I would take it somewhere else first to make sure it is really the rear main seal and not something else like the pan. Also on mine there was a special kit because of a dissimilar metal problem that caused the rear main seals to leak. The...

    Dash cracking

    I removed the panel closest to the windshield and then melted a small piece of the same plastic across the hidden part of the crack. Trim off excess plastic from a non visible location to do this. I used a soldering iron to melt the underlying dash plastic a little an applied the cut piece...

    Where to buy weather strip

    This looks right as far as the weather strip. If that does not fix it make sure your AC drain is not plugged. If it is that will soak the passenger side wheel well.

    Front Dash Crack

    I know this is an old post but I removed the front dash panel (closest to the windshield) in order to get access to the source of the cracks. There are three plastic mounts that break and become the source of the cracks on the bigger dash that surrounds the AC vents etc. . I used a soldering...

    Buzzing noise from the speaker above driver seat

    Mine was making a rattling noise. It is easy and so inexpensive to replace that I would not spend time cleaning or repositioning. Also I did not remove sun visors and A pillars covers and door molding. All I did was pry off the speaker like cap, from inside the car, using some plastic trim...

    I'm finding puddles of water under the truck

    My AC seems to work well but besides the normal condensate drain drip at the front right tire I also have heavy condensation dripping along the AC lines all the way to the rear. One line is very hot and one line next to it is very cold. It does not seem to matter if the rear ac is on or not...

    Same Old Issue - Stabilitrac / Traction Control Off, hard shift, etc

    Check the fuel pedal sensor connection. These vehicles are fly by wire. I adjusted pedal height one day and when I started up several hours later I got all those warnings plus the vehicle would not go faster than about 35 mph. I was about to change out the MAF sensor when it dawned on me that...

    A/C drain location

    My car guy who blew it out a month ago looked at it again and decided the drain hose was misaligned and missing the elbow extender. He maintains the condensation was simply going back into the passenger compartment because of this. He fixed both. After things dry out I will crank it up and...
