Recently bought a 2015 hoe. Tungsten ext blk int. I am wondering what you guys/gals use to clean your interiors? I have basically been using a duster to remove the dust then just using micro fiber cloths and warm water to do the cleaning. One area of concern is the lower hard plastic on the...

Hello All, A few questions for you guys. First I was wondering if anyone has purchased mud guards for their Tahoe, where did you get them, price, etc? Also, I have been reluctant to install them because I think it would ruin the look on gray body (especially on the rear) Thanks for...

This is pretty general but I am wondering if anyone has had or has heard of their battery dying (3x in 2 1/2 yrs) and needing a jump? I am looking at buying an "07 (36,500k miles)that has had reoccurring issues with dead batteries that the dealer could not diagnos other than eventually to...

Hello Again, I asked this seperate from my engine question just in case some have experience with this specifically. The 07 Tahoe I am looking at online is 2wd w/ stabilatrack. I understand the theory of the systems but have never had stabilatrack and am wondering how it works in snow...

I was looking online at an 07 Tahoe with a 4.8l engine. I know most have 5.3 and I am wondering if that would be a noticeable difference as far as passing, etc.? It is quite a drive to test drive so I thought I would ask your opinions before taking the trip. Thanks

Hello All- My idler pulley came off while I was driving and I have a few questions. I managed to find the pulley and a sleeve type piece under the battery area. I haven't been able to find any pics of this area so I don't know if the sleeve goes on the inside of the pulley? Is there...

Just wondering if there should be any play on the power steering pulley? I am not talking about any wobble or excessive movement. It's just that I can move the pulley in and out on the shaft maybe 1/32". Is this allowable or should there be absolutely no play/movement on the pulley? I ask...

Hello All I need your opinions on a 2007 Tahoe I am looking to buy. It has alot of miles (60k) but I usually keep my vehicles for 10 years so.... My concern is at 10 miles it had a "housing, steering shaft bearing-tilt" replaced, at 8k miles it had a "seal,transmission oil pump" replaced...

Hello All- After replacing my power steering pump I have noticed a squeak after a cold start. After the vehicle warms up the squeak goes away. Before I try a few things I am just wondering if this is something obvious (with a quick and easy fix!!)

Hello all, I am looking at an '05 Tahoe with 50K miles. I will list the work that has been done on it (that was reported) and would like your opinion on if there seems to be any obvious red flags. Haven't test driven vehicle yet but figured I'd ask the experts here so I might have more...

So I have a 97 Tahoe with 200,000+ miles and although I am keeping it I am planning on buying an '05 or '06 soon. My question is the two appear to be relatively the same but have any of you found and major issues with one over the other?? Any recommendations or "if I had to do it again...

Hello All I am in the middle of replacing a pwr steering pump on a 97 Tahoe. As stated in the manual, I have removed the serpenting belt, pulled off the pulley, removed the two lines (from the gear box) and removed the three bolts holding the pump. My problem is the pump won't budge!!! I...

I am wondering if replacing a pwr steering pump on a 97 Tahoe is as simple as it seems? It appears as though the pump is connected by a couple bolts and then the lines carrying the fluid. Is there something I'm missing or is this as simple as it seems? BTW I replaced the altenator a...

Hello All, I have a 97 Tahoe just short of 200k miles. I have had a winding sound for a while with the service engine soon light also on. I replaced the alternator and the engine light went off but the winding sound remains. My next thought is transmission or water pump?? As I drive and...

Hello All, I am wondering if someone could give me some insight on changing the gaskets for the oil and transmission pans on a 1997 tahoe. It seems to be pretty straight forward but figured there are always problems when things appear easy so any tips or problems I may face (or hopefully...

I need to replace an alternator for a 1997 Tahoe with 197k. Looking on-line I find different amps available; 105, 124, 140 and 150. I have AC and don't use the vehicle for towing. Opinions on what to select are greatly appreciated. I also see models with plastic back covers and a few without...

I posted a short time ago about a winding sound coming from my '97 Tahoe. I thought it might be the water pump because the alternator checked out as "good" when I had it tested at the local Auto Zone. After placing a long screwdriver on various engine parts I found the winding to be coming...

Hello All- I am hearing a winding noise on my '97 tahoe. The sound seems to directly relate to the engine speed (getting louder/faster as the rpm's increase.) I had the alternator checked at Auto Zone and it tested good but still wonder how accurate their tests were??? My other thought was...

Hello all- I'm redoing a small spot over my rear wheel well that has rusted through. I am wondering if I should use a grey primer or the brown/rust color primer? BTW top color is victory red.
