    Getting her ready for Alaska

    Day one down, 3 to go just to California for the holidays. Thanks for all the advice guys. I am getting a set of chains before I leave So Cal. Yukon is running great so far. Made it from OKC to Amarillo on less than 3/4 of a tank. My mileage probably sucks but I figured it would with that...

    Getting her ready for Alaska

    Man this is getting expensive!!! Got the new remote start and after market stereo installed last week and got all the little bugs worked out. Now it is in for a tune up. The mechanic let me buy all the parts from O'Reilleys since I can get them cheaper with my military discount. I went with...

    Remote Start Question

    Got the remote start installed yesterday. Have to take it back to the guy tomorrow. The dang security light keeps coming on. Weird thing is, it only comes on when I use cruise control. WTF?

    Remote Start Question

    Does anyone know if I need a security bypass for a remote starter for a 1999 Yukon? I have had some places that I have called for a quote tell me that I do, and some have said that I dont. It makes about an $80 difference in the price. Thanks

    And the list grows!

    OK. I've read about the EVOs and that seems like it might be the problem. I drove it today and it didnt do it so we will see. I'm getting ready to drive from Oklahoma to Washington and I dont really want to deal with this little annoying problem. So is the thing located under the dash or...

    And the list grows!

    It cant possibly be any thing in the front end (at least I hope) Its got a newly rebuilt front end on it. I'm going to check into this EVO sensor thing. Thanks

    And the list grows!

    Sorry I guess I didnt mention that it isnt in regular intervals. It only happens everyonce in a while. The tires better not be separating... They're brand new!

    And the list grows!

    So I was driving my Yukon yesterday and all of a sudden, the steering wheel jerks slightly to the left. I didnt think anything of it because the things steering is so easy I can turn it with my pinky. Then it did it again and again etc... It wasnt like it was unsafe or anything, just really...

    My Problem .....

    Hmm, never heard that before. I used to be in aircraft corrosion control and I was never taught that. I know a vehicle is the same as an aircraft but corrosion is corrosion. I'm gonna stick with what I know. Get as much out as possible.

    New Member w/ New (to me) 99 Yukon

    Thank you. Guys, I've got a lot of little annoying things to fix on this. It was a refurb (but doesnt have a salvage title) Everything is good with it mechanically but they hacked on the little stuff and the paint. The guy that did it was a friend of my father in law. He is a good...

    Gas Gauge Issue

    I have a similar issue. My gauge is accurate however, it vibrates like crazy so it makes it look blurry. It doesnt bounce around and point irradically, it just simply vibrates. Mostly a nuisance. Man, I've got a lot of crap wrong with this thing... its nothing major, just irritating crap.

    1997 Chevy power seat question

    Chris, Did you try Del City Pick Up Parts? My dad bought a seat motor for an Explorer there a few months ago. I needed a new circuit board for my Yukon and all they had on the floor was the whole assembly and they just pulled the board out. They seem pretty helpful there. They are at...

    Dome light problem

    Yeah, I tried that! Apparantly its the second switch that has been put in there. The thing doesnt even sit in there correctly so I figure thats the likely cause. I wonder how hard it is to replace and if it's even worth it. Thanks!

    Stupid request

    I would like to find a cup holder for a center console for my 99 Yukon. I've got the CD holder in mine and I hate it. Cant find one in the local salvage yards and dont really want to pay $30+ on Ebay.

    Sorry about your luck. Did you have to wait in line outside of the NAPA like my wife did to get into Target?

    My Problem .....

    The thing I like about those touchless carwashes is that most of them hit the undercarriage. A must if throw salt on the roads!

    should i trade for 99 escalade seats?

    Do they have the Cadillac logo on the seat? If so, I wouldnt do it. Just something for people to make fun of.

    Dome light problem

    Talked to my father in-law (the previous owner) and apparantly there is a bad switch for the driver's door. Could one bad switch make all of them inoperable?

    Dome light problem

    The push botton one. Not the one that dims/brightens the instrument panel (well that one works too) I'll mess around with it a little more then let you know. Thanks

    Stop the damn buzzing!

    Unfortunately its all doors. The light works when I toggle the overide switch but when I close the doors, the light stays on. Its pretty aggrivating especially at night when I am trying to load my son in his car seat!
