Just tell them you know GM has a problem with the steering shafts and that you know there is a new design shaft out and you would like it replaced. Just be nice about it and you shouldn't have a problem. Also, it wouldn't hurt to give them the bulletin # 00-02-35-003N

No, it's not covered under the powertrain warranty, but it's a very known problem and you should be able to get it covered as a "goodwill" repair since it's a known problem.

yes it's the driver side rear. right behind the intake.

Wow. I guess your local dealer is not as "friendly" as mine. We were told by the GM district rep to replace them until 100k miles since it is a known issue that they have never been able to correct. I would try contacting another dealer if I were you.

Good deal. It should be working fine now.

check your cig. lighter fuse under the hood in the underhood fuse center. That fuse supplies power to the DLC, which is the connector that you plug the scanner into.

The ISS replacement if for the GMT800 series body style. All the way up to the '07 classic style pickup. If you have under 100,000 miles, the dealer should replace it under warranty, due to it being a "known cause". Just ask your dealer for help, since it's a known problem. That is the...

The temperature blend door actuator has lost it's calibration. All you have to do to reset it is turn the HVAC controls off, front and rear. Disconnect the battery under the hood for at least 1 minute. Reconnect the battery and then start the vehicle. DO NOT touch the HVAC controller for at...

Your compressor is pretty much gone. The high side pressures have gone too high and metal has probably contaminated the system due to the compressor failing. You can find compressors online, or in salvage yards and autozone. But you definately need to replace the fan clutch.

With the details of the horn problem, it sounds like there is a buildup of grease on the horn terminal. Its kinda hard to expain it. Behind the steering wheel there is a plastic piece that has a metal ring on it. Your multifunction switch (turn signal switch) has a little metal tab that rubs...
