    2007 Brake Pad and Rotor: Police Grade?

    I don't know about police grade, but out of my 262k miles, I've primarily stuck with Delco, and in the last six years have been extremely satisfied with Centric Posi Quiet ceramics. I once tried to go cheap Autozone Duralast Gold; worst pads I've ever used on any of my cars. I've replaced rotors...

    2002 Tahoe with Front end noise

    How certain are you that the noise is coming from the front? Twice, I've had rear issues that I swore was coming from the front. Both time turned out to be the emergency brake pad; one it slid out of it's bracket and ate up the inside of my rear rotor; the second time, the brake material unglued...

    New Rotors for '02 Tahoe - AC/Delco or Wagner?

    I'm planing on replacing my rear rotors after 140k miles this weekend; I was quoted $145/each for aftermarket AC/Delco, and $64/each for Wagner. I've always been partial to AC/Delco as being the closest to dealer OEM, but I've read Wagner makes decent products. Pricing is ridiculously lower with...

    '02 Tahoe LS Rough Cold Start

    I read other posts, and even took a look at the Seafoarm application; funny stuff on YouTube (all the smoke and all), but don't know if I'm ready to try it myself. Maybe as a last resort. Thanks for the input. JK - I'm planning on cleaning up the TB this weekend, but I've read several...

    '02 Tahoe LS Rough Cold Start

    A couple of months ago, my Tahoe started running rough at cold start in the mornings, but runs fine once warmed up. The problem is getting a little worse, and having to give it a little gas in the mornings to get to a smooth idle, but the rough idle still goes completely away when warm. This...

    oil service miles?

    When I first bought my '02 Tahoe, I changed the oil only when the inidicator went off. After a couple of years, I began noticing my truck was consuming a little oil. I began to add a little oil to top off when low. Five years later, my truck is consuming 1 quart at about 2k miles after an oil...

    Uneven Tire Wear

    After reading my orginal post, I should clarify that the uneven wear appears to be happening in the front. After several rotations, all tires show the uneven wear.

    No mods, the truck is completely stock.

    Uneven Tire Wear

    I've never been able to wear a set of tires evenly. All tires have begun to wear badly along the insides. I have an '02 Tahoe LS; first and only owner. Since '02, when I purchased the truck, I've gone through two sets of tires, and going on my third set. The original tires (Firestone...

    rear ac

    I've got an '02 Tahoe LS, and about a year ago, the rear a/c quit working all together; the a/c would not respond when I tried turning on with the overhead controls. I checked all fuses, and even did some initial testing on control switches; no luck. For kicks, I removed the rear panel...
