    20" wheels to 17"

    Inked a deal on a 2012 and it has 20" OEM wheels with a lower profile tire. I still have a my 2003 that has the OEM 17" wheels. The all terrain tires on my 03 are hardly broke in and have a much taller sidewall v's the tires in the 2012 with the 20's. For off road use, I much prefer the extra...

    Engine Size and Year

    Currently have an 03 4wd with 5.3 flex and looking to upgrade by a few years and lower miles. So my question is, starting in what year, did the Tahoe offer a larger engine? And was it the 6.0 or 6.2? and was it the 6.0 first then the 6.2? And if so, whats the years those engine where offered? TIA

    HVAC WTF

    So over the summer, I wondered why the rear AC was mediocre. As we moved into winter, I noticed I had no rear heat. Pulled the panel off and fount this. Bend motor removed, hole cut out in air box and screw run through blend door holding it in the cold position. Gotta love backyard hacks...

    Oil Consumption

    03 5.3L Flex. Only have 5 week on it since reman trans, fixed some oil leaks and fresh oil change. Checked today, which is likely 4 weeks since last check, and was down .5 qrt. Likely have less then 1,000 miles on this oil, so .5 qrt is a lot. I do not know what oil has been run before, but...

    Exterior Temp Display?

    03 Tahoe Z71. Over the weekend, I got freeze warning on the DIC, so it leads me to conclude it has an exterior temp sensor. Quick look through the grill, and I see the temp sensor. I do not see the exterior temp displayed on the HVAC head like my 02 Traiblazer LTZ did. Is the display buried in...

    Transfer case motor issue?

    03 Tahoe Z71 Anyone had an issue with what seems like a transfer case shift motor being weak and moving on its own, resulting in a partial 4wd engagement or neutral? Had a case where I had no reverse ( i know, sounds like trans), then some some weird vibrations/noise another time. Turning into...

    ISO OEM air filter box and piping

    5.3L valve train rattle

    Looking at a high mileage 5.3L At about 1500 rpm idle, there was a slight/low volume upper engine rattle. Not like a single lifter, it was a faster rate then one or two and not that pronounced. I seem to recall a TSB or at least some rumors about it, from way back, on this, but cant dig...

    04 with cluster thats out

    Looking at an 04 Tahoe and the cluster is out. No mileage or gauge function. My question is: Is the mileage stored off-board in the BCM or PCM or only in the cluster? If I do need to swap the cluster, with the mileage be shared from some other module? Or if the Mileage is only stored in the...
