    -01 tahoe strange 4hi sounds

    Thanks for the great answer:) I only had and car's before, not real 4wd, and since I had the fluids looked at and changed, an everything looked good, and since I only have the sound from 12 mph and below in corners or braking to a standstill, ita most likely just me not being used to this...

    -01 tahoe strange 4hi sounds

    Hmm ok, so could the that difference cause sounds from the front wheels while in 4hi, and not in auto, even if the front tires are working? Had the front dif drained, nothing strange.

    -01 tahoe strange 4hi sounds

    another question, other then the obvious, are there any other differences between 4hi/auto,in how the system works, other then that 4hi is 4wd all the time? tried using "auto" and I dont get that strange sound, even when I can feel the front tires working, and Im not going sideways like in rwd...

    -01 tahoe strange 4hi sounds

    hi, thanks for the reply, that was one of the things I was thinking about, that the sound could simply be because of how the 4wd system works, since its only at low speeds while turningin in roundabouts or intersections, or braking to a standstill at or under 12mph, and not a soúnd at...

    -01 tahoe strange 4hi sounds

    my first thought was something is wrong with the dif, but then I started thinking, why do I only get the sound at low speeds, if something in the dif was broken/really worn, should I not hear it even more, when I accelerate hard, or turn hard, not just from 12mph or slower? was also thinking u...

    -01 tahoe strange 4hi sounds

    hi, first snow is here, and first time really using 4hi, but Im getting really strange sounds from the front tires, not sure if something is wrong, or its because of how the 4wd system is designed. the sound is hard to explain, but sort of squealing/grinding sound, but only at low speeds when...

    Service 4wd light

    No, I don't have a diesel , I gave the 5.3l, yeah the car have a tune, since the previous owner upgraded a few engine parts, but it can also read error codes, but nothing, I'm starting to think it's the switch on the dash that is bad, ie if I drive on a bumpy road, and get the service message...

    Service 4wd light

    Hi, asking here since I don't have a manual. When I drove to work an orange service 4we lift came on, I'm assuming this means ita time to do a 4wd service, not that something is wrong with it? Exactly what's included in this service? Atm the milage is 9900

    2001 tahoe key fob part number question

    Yeah, first I have to look up if it works with any alarm, or if it have to be the same frequency as it is in my German car, in order to bypass the passlock system, so the box/computer in the car sont get confused over different frequencies or something, would suck if I got it installed, and...

    2001 tahoe key fob part number question

    Aha ok, well I live in a small town, and park in a garage sp I'm not that worried about having it stolen or damaged, if I get an alarm it's only in order to kill the passlock system, so for that reason I don't see any point in spending alot on a really good alarm system:)

    2001 tahoe key fob part number question

    Hmm, might be a dumb question but, how does a new alarm bypass the immobilizer/passlock system, since it's so"built into" the car it can't just be deactivated, the passlock components are still there, plus the system in the car's computer box, or do I need some form of alarm with it's own...
