    Cancelling magneride

    OK, I read posts and articles and all the wisdoms. Just to make sure. I buy aftermarket front shocks and magneride cancellation kit, which is 2 resistors plugged into the OEM harness, install new shocks - and that's it? No fool messages?

    C0575-02 left front actuator circuit short to ground

    Well got this code this morning. It stays, erasing it does not help. Safely presuming, ECU shuts down electronic ride control. My front shocks are Dormans magnaride ones. They were not cheap and is it correct to presume, that it's bad shock electronic component? Or, it's something else? I'll try...

    License plate lights cover clips

    I came back home 2 days ago and that cover was hanging down across the tailgate on one R side clip What I found is that the very left side clip is broken. Tailgate itself has several, 4 or so, white plastic square "pegs" across the length of the cover, what I presume, must have been more clips...

    07 Tahoe rough 2>3 shift

    07 Tahoe LT 4WD Transmission was rebuilt about 2 yrs ago. Everything is OK, I just can't get over rough 2>3 shift. Just rough. There is no transmission codes, I have capable scanner.
