There doesn't appear to be a separate part. It looks as though it is part of the assembly. http://www.gmpartsonline.net/1996-chevrolet-tahoe.html I don't know exactly how the Tahoe is but I have repaired several Porsche where this has happened and it is just a metal lift rail and rubber...

What kind of encoder motor did you get? There has been some reports of cheap Chinese encoder motors not working out of the box, and been replace with OEM to correct the problem.

Yeah, could be hub bearings. well here is the front steering. Could be any of these components. Could be a bent wheel. http://www.gmpartsonline.net/1999-chevrolet-tahoe.html

Really there is no absolute way to know until you take it apart. Yeah, it will get louder and will eventually break the piston if that is what is wrong.

It was the Strawberry Tea that gave it away, not the fact that you decide to pour your drink into the switches. I bet, I am equally impressed. The whole thing probably pops out, the whole panel with all the switches I am guessing. I am not sure exactly how they are in there. I wouldn't take...

We don't know that is the problem for use. It could but we don't know that to be fact yet.

Scan the vehicle for soft codes. Yeah, a vent valve might not set a check engine light but should have a soft code if that is the problem. You could always stick a bore scope down there and take a look, or at least try to get a look at the out side for any obvious damage. That is a...

Sounds like bad shift solenoid with potentially other transmission issues.

Oh dude I would just buy a Ferrari and get it over with. I am just kidding.

The light doesn't come on for all codes. Some codes have to happen several times before throwing a light, but there will be a "soft" code still stored in the computer. Some codes will never throw a check engine light. However it sounds like some sort of blockage though, which may not have a...

I would have the switch panel pulled out and washed with water and dried real well. I do this with keyboards.... some say you can even put them in the dishwasher on a light low heat cycle, but I never tried this. You would be amazed at what people dump on their key boards. Plan water is the...

Well lets see. Lamborghini Countach Anniversary edition: sure is an attention getter for sure, but it is a novelty that wears off fast. Ferrari F430: another attention getter and makes a wicked exhaust noise. Ferrari 355: I think it is crap as far as car engineering goes, but again if you...

Encoder motor maybe

I almost guarantee it will have a check engine light and it will be for Cat efficiency errors and O2 sensor errors. Yeah, the reason why the fuel miles goes down is it is all designed to run as clean as possible and when something goes goofy in the cat O2 system it defaults to a rich...

Fuel check valve leak maybe. That is to say you need to have the fuel system tested to see if it hold pressure after the vehicle is turned off. What you are actually doing is priming the fuel system by cranking and turning it off and back on. I am not sure that it is with the regulator or...
