    Is This Okay to Use?

    So I was going through some boxes and found this 80W-90 GL 5 Gear Lube and can't remember what I originally bought it for. Can this be used on the Differential(s) on my '05 Yukon or should I use a synthetic blend? I may have bought this for my lawn tractors which I sold. Also, what's the...

    Driver Speaker Quit-Where to Start?

    So as I get older I find myself questioning everything I've ever learned. And I think I've also forgotten more than the average guy has learned. (LOL) But as the title says, the door speaker quit. Now I've always been taught to start at the problem and work your way back to the source. So, I'm...

    Customer Service Really is Dead

    So today I pulled one of the wheels off the Yukon to see where the slow pesky leak is. I was concerned it might be the rim again and wanted to know since it would depend on who I took it to. The tire shop, or the guy that repaired the rim. It's a 20" Aluminum Centerline and it had a small leak a...

    Can't Find Leak, Only Smell It!

    We can smell hot coolant on the '05 Yukon when we get out but I'll be darned if I can find any evidence of a leak. The overflow bottle doesn't even appear to drop in level. Can't smell it inside so that kinda rules out the heater core I guess. Kinda like going to the Dr and then it doesn't hurt...

    Wiper Fluid Gone Bad?

    This morning my wife goes out to take our granddaughter to school and from the Yukon texts me asking if we have any wiper fluid. I open the garage and grab a half full bottle of Peak Summer blend off the shelf and start pouring it in. A big black gob came out! I stopped immediately and looked...

    Looking for Testimonials Re: HM Oil

    Hope this is the right section to post this. I'm curious to find out what everyone's response is to this question: Are High Mileage Oils worth it? Or Hype? I know, another oil thread. But like everyone else I've read about, there is no definitive answer! You Google the question and you get...

    Lasted 1-1/2 years. But really, AGAIN?

    Darned Oil Pressure Sensor appears to be bad AGAIN. As the title says, I replaced it 1-1/2 years ago. It's an AC Delco too. At least I'm getting good at replacing it. NOT LOL! Why do these keep failing? Bad Quality? I verified it by Key On, Engine Off and unplugging it. It was at 80 psi and then...

    Idiots Are Everywhere!

    I must have a Disaster Magnet on me. Had the Transmission replaced on the '05 Yukon. Got home and went to file the paperwork and noticed it didn't say anything anywhere regarding the Rear Main Seal. Paid what was quoted for it though. So I called the shop and asked him if maybe he just forgot to...

    Confirm My Mad Scientist Idea!

    So, as some of you know from my posts I am having my '05 Yukon's transmission replaced. I decided to replace the radiator, cooler, and all three lines due to contamination (metal) in the entire system. I'm saving myself some money by doing it myself. So before it goes to the shop, my idea is to...

    Where to Find Part Numbers

    Can anyone direct me to a site where I can look up OE part numbers?

    Transmission Coolers

    It's been suggested I have a Tru-Cool 40,000 Transmission Cooler installed as a "Stand Alone" unit completely bypassing the radiator and factory supplemental cooler on my '05 Yukon simply because the transmission that is being replaced had so much metal in it. Has anyone done this, and how has...

    Monster Transmission Parts Any Good?

    So as the title says. Are Monster Transmission Parts any good? I got a guy that is quoting me a 4L60E rebuild using Monster Sunshell and Planetary Gear. Any thoughts?

    Pulled the Transmission Pan Today

    So I dropped the Transmission Pan on the '05 Yukon today and was shocked to find small metal shavings as well as lot of metal sludge on the magnet. This is the transmission that was a "reman" installed about 8k miles ago. Also I expected to have to tug and twist the filter to get it out but it...

    Need help sealing Transfer Case to Transmission

    Okay so I've discovered the terrible design of the 4L60E tailshaft when mating to a Transfer Case Adapter. There is no external seal on the transmission so the adapter "tunnel" fills with ATF. I've been scouring the internet and found others with the same problem. There is some discussion of a...

    Transfer Case Bearings

    Anyone ever replace the two bearing that are pressed on their Transfer Case without using a press? Like a big vice, or blocks and hammer?

    Seal/Gasket Between Transfer Case & Transmission

    I know there's a gasket that goes between the two and have read that it's supposed to be a "dry" seal. Yet mine was covered on both sides with a gray material that's similar if not actually RTV. I've read to not use RTV. But most when separated have some ATF come out. And Permatex makes some...

    Consensus on Cold Oil Changes

    I'm mostly being lazy I think but I thought I'd ask. I usually do hot oil changes but since the Yukon is up on the jacks in the garage waiting for parts I'm contemplating changing the oil and filter since the advisor came on. What's the thoughts on this? It is 90⁰ here.

    Hurts Taking One Like This

    The Remanufactured Transmission in my wife's 2005 Yukon has started making a noise that sounds like something is loose inside. Does it in all gear positions. The business that installed it has completely dropped off the face of the earth. So much for any warranty. I just hate the feeling of...

    Could This Be a BCM Issue?

    I changed the Steering Position Sensor right? I know I bumped the BCM. Now I can't get any TPMS readings, nor does the manual learn work. I get the two horn beeps acknowledging it's ready but I get nothing when letting air out of the DS front tire. Is this BCM controlled?

    Help me with TPMS problem

    Use Genuine AC Delco Parts They Say...

    I'm told for the best match and longest life on replacement parts use AC Delco parts. They're what OEM is right? Well I just recieved 3 parts I ordered and every one of them is made in a different country! What's going on, who's to say these manufacturers aren't making the very same product and...

    What! AGAIN? I don't even want to look...

    So, not too long ago I replaced the parking brake shoes and used the upgraded hardware. Wife says the right rear wheel is making noise again. What the heck now? The new hardware is supposed to keep the shoes from flopping off the backing plate and rubbing inside the drum. This will be the 3rd...

    Steering Position Sensor Replacement

    Anyone have any advice, or tips on replacing one of these? I replaced this one once before but I also replaced the intermediate steering shaft. So I disconnected it from the engine bay side. I've watched a couple of videos and they go at it from inside the cabin. Tape the steering wheel straight...

    Oil Pressure Suddenly @ 80psi !

    Not sure if this is the correct area for this but if not I guess I'll find out. The wife just came in and told me the Oil Pressure Gauge is reading 80 psi on her 05 Yukon! New sender (AC Delco) and maybe 3 yrs ago a new instrument cluster (Dorman?) What's the should I check 1st? What's easiest...
