After the fiasco with my insurance company and shady dealers (odometer fraud and dealing with a total loss after owning my car for 16 days) I'm back in the game. I purchased a CarFax 1 owner vehicle with VERIFIED mileage of 118,000. It is a 2004 GMC Yukon that is extremely clean.

The dealer I bought it from had to replace the water pump because it started to leak, which is common. The "service air bag" light is on, but I'm going to poke around and see if it's a lose connection from when they detailed it.

That looks like an exact twin of my black 2005 (currently 120,000 on the clock), which I purchased new in Feb '06.

Other than a water pump replacment, brakes, and a busted window washer pump, the thing has been outstanding. You should be able to enjoy yours for a long time to come.

I plan on driving mine until it's no longer economically feasible, which hopefully will mean another 8 years.

Did you solve the "service air bag" indicator issue? I have something similar on my 2004 Yukon XL

My service air bag light came on a while back and i just installed new impact sensors and that took care of the problem.

I friend just bought a 05 Tahoe, 120,000 miles that the airbag light is on. The seller stated it was the sensor but the dealer wanted $500 to remove the bumper and replace the sensor so it's still on.
Where is the sensor and if anyone knows the part #and cost, that would be great.
If I replace the sensor will the light reset? I don't have a scanner that does ABS.
Thanks....sorry about the hijack...

There is no reason to remove the bumper. I changed both on my yukon in about fifteen minutes. I bought aftermarket sensors and saved a boatload of money over OEM ones and once i changed them the service airbag warning went away.

This shows where they`re located.
