    Rattling/Thumping noise from the headliner

    Had the same problem. There are vertical pieces of plastic on the headliner that hit the roof. In most spots there is some foam stuck to the roof or something to pad them. In that area on mine there was nothing. Can't remember everything that I took apart but it wasn't that difficult to get...

    Katzkin Leather Installation

    I installed it on my 07 last December. It's not difficult, just time consuming and is murder on your hands. The headrests are the worst but there is a way to make them easier. I had someone do the pockets behind the front seats for me. You have to glue and staple that part which I didn't feel...

    Fading bodyside molding

    I asked isn't it covered for 5 years. Didn't say it was covered for 5 years. However I was having the same problem on my previous truck which was a 1500HD, greystone. Went to the dealership and they said it was covered under warranty and fixed it. It had 20k miles on it. Going back to the...

    Fading bodyside molding

    Isn't paint covered for 5 years? Dealership should cover this. Mine are doing the same thing. Plan on taking it in next week to see what they will do along with a list of other things to fix.

    Help with 2003 tahoe towing, anyone?

    Might want to post this in the 2000-2006 forum. Oh and that year has the 5.3l, not the 5.7l. Before you do though you need to provide more information. 2wd or 4wd? Which gear ratio (3.42, 3.73, 4.10) Makes a big difference. 6700lbs is quite a bit of weight for a Tahoe. Remember when...

    Transmission Temperature

    A transmission cooler is always a good idea. I believe these trucks come with synthetic tranny fluid which can handle the higher temps a lot better than traditional tranny fluid. However I would not like to see my tranny running at that temp very often. Before I added the tranny cooler to...

    Starter gets stcuk on

    Has anyone else had this happen? Mine is having the same/similar issue. I turn the key to start it and it just keeps spinning. Sometimes it starts after a couple seconds, others it doesn't start at all. It is going back to the dealership this week so just curious. If I turn the key to run...

    Front passenger side carpet WET!!!

    Yes. It just happened a couple weeks ago but hasn't happened since. Haven't had time to take it to the dealership yet. I can't remember if it was raining or not when it happened. I don't have a sunroof so that can't be the problem. Good luck and post up what you find.

    best towing setup

    The tranny is the same. I think the tow package on a 99 came with a hitch and was already wired for the the trailer lights. Can't remember if the 99 I had came with a tranny cooler or not but I believe the radiator is the same. IMO the best thing you can add to your vehicle if you are going...

    What's your fuel mileage when towing???

    It's not going to be great. Depending on the day I get 9-11mpg towing a 24' pontoon that with the trailer weighs slightly over 4,000. I get around 9-10mpg towing a different 6,000lb boat/trailer. It is more aerodynamic than the pontoon and tows much better. Either way it isn't going to be...

    Just installed Katzkin leather seats

    I paid $749 shipped to my door for 2 rows. Ordered on Friday and arrived the next Friday. Didn't get the third row seat when I bought the truck since there are usually two big dogs back there. If you are considering it don't be confused on the website. It states that there are 2 kits for the...

    Just installed Katzkin leather seats

    Just the covers. You take the old cloth off and put the leather cover on. There is some extra foam already attached to the new leather covers so you get even more padding.

    Just installed Katzkin leather seats

    Thanks. The pictures really don't do it justice. They look even better in person and are extremely comfortable.

    Just installed Katzkin leather seats

    They were on www.autoseatskins.com. I have seen them on a couple other websites. Here is a link to some of the pictures. Guess I should have taken some before I put the front seats back in. The leather hasn't settled yet so there are still some creases but they will go away once it heats up.

    Just installed Katzkin leather seats

    Probably a little pricey but with them I knew what I was getting. I didn't want to chance going with another company that wasn't as well known. Plus the price difference wasn't that great between them and some other companies.

    Just installed Katzkin leather seats

    Just installed Katzkin leather seats over the weekend. Extremely pleased with how it came out. I previously had the ebony cloth interior. Yes the one that looks like a used lint brush after 2 days. That was the worst interior I have ever had in a vehicle and I didn't feel like waiting for...
